    China auto starts slow crawl back

    China's March passenger car sales fell 41% Y/Y in March to 1.08M units, according to data released by the China Passenger Car Association. The sharp drop wasn't surprising amid the efforts to control the COVID-19 outbreak.

    Electric vehicle sales were 47.1K units during the month, including 10,160 units for Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA).

    CPCA expects overall April sales to be stronger than the March tally.
