NUMMI breaks annual production record for 2006!

Post by IMakeVibes »

So the production year has come to an end. Its too early to say what the finally production numbers were for '06, but its going to be close to 430,000. That beats '05 by 15,000. At this pace, we'll be at the half million mark in a few years.Exact numbers should be released in early January.Happy Holidays everyone!

if you have the numbers, can you post the Vibe production by year for all the years so far? US Vibe sales were down a lot from 2005, curious to see what the production numbers wereedit - I see from that other thread that 2005 production was 62,159, so if 2006 was 58,334, 3825 less, while US sales dropped 19050 from 2005 to 2006.

Production totals since NUMMI opened are here. Thats up to '05 and I posted '06 totals in my last post. I can't speak as to who sells how many what where when, we just make them. Just a thought, but are those sales figures total sales or just retail sales? Wondering if that includes fleet sales to places life rental agencies. On our end, those are just completed vehicles that were sold to GM and Toyota. Of course there are many more scrapped in progress and rebuilt due to problems or defects during production.
