Analysis of new ONS data by Institute of the Motor Industry illustrates determination of sector to get back on its feet, with 19% reporting increase in turnover
The Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI) has analysed the latest ONS data on UK business performance.
Key data
Steve Nash, CEO of the IMI said: "It is tremendously encouraging to see how determined our sector has been in getting back on its feet since the June 1st opening of showrooms. Our previous report showed tentative signs of recovery, but the latest data suggests that automotive businesses really grasped the nettle in the second half of June. Just 8% had not reopened and 62,000 jobs returned to work from furlough. But with only just over a third saying that cash reserves would last for more than 6 months, it's clear that balancing cashflow remains a challenge."
