How do I find auto industry specifications and statistics?
Answer
The US DOT does not maintain vehicle specifications or auto industry sales data.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration does provide safety ratings on vehicles, and also recall information.
Non-DOT Sources for Vehicle Statistics
