Stating Jan. 1, buyers of gas-electric hybrid vehicles get tax credits that could lower their income tax bills as much as $3,150, according to an analysis by the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy. I predict Hybrid engined cars will continue their trend of breaking sales records and retain its rock solid reliability and start a trend of royal hybrid followers to a new horizon. Other car manufactuers like Hyundai, BmW, MB, Audi, Porshe, GM and Ford will soon try to catch up in hybrid by purchasing Toyota Hybrid system.

2) BMW will come in 2nd place,but will again improve maybe over MB for the first place when they will come up with there new 7,5 and M3.

3) Audi will have a good year with Q7 but there A8,A6 and A4 's sales will fall drastically beacause all the impact of new models of MB will fall more on Audi than anyone else.


US:

1) GM continues their loss.

2) Chevrolet will keep on coming with more powerful varients of the Corvette to remain a competitor to the strong german/japaneese sports cars.But good news Corvette will do excellent this time and will defeat many strong competitors.


3) Jaguar will do good with new XK,S-type.Atleast they will come out of their loss if not profit.

4) Buick,mercury,saab,lincoln....etc No chance for other 2-3 years.


Japan:

1)Toyota will keep on enjoying their success, will sell more than 10 million cars and their profits will be doubled. What else could be said to describe their SUPERMACY.

2) Lexus will become the main rival (Nightmare) to german.It will be the strongest player of Toyota in the Luxo/Sports Category,and it will make and break many records.After all he is the son of almight Toyota.Lexus will capture the markets with their new LS,LX,SC,ES,V10 500+HP,IS 450+ HP.....etc

3) Nissan will also see a rise in every aspect/category/segment.Especially there upcomin Skyline GTR will be a big hit,moreeeeee than it's predessors (Just imagine) It will be a Porsche/Ferrari eater.


4) Infinti will produce many cool/beaties and will have a big place in market and in people's heart/mind.Also they will come up with a super GT and the new innovative Q.

5) Mitsubishi will be back to great looking cars and profits,especially with their new Pajero/Montero and lancer.
Their new EVO X (Concept X) will be a biggggggg hit and will earn Mits everything they were after.

6)Honda as ever City,Civic,Accord will be bigggg hits and will be liked and sell tremendously.New Honda's sports and super Sports models will also recieve same successes.

But they need improvment in thier SUV segment and may will not do as well as toyota,nissan...etc


7)Suzuki,dhaitsu will earn more awarness/responsiveness in major and rich countries.Will come up with exiting models which people will care for having 1,no prob they will too sell finely here and tremendously in the developing parts of the world.


8) Subaru sales will also be healthy.New Impreza will be a big hit.There new two door will do pretty well.


Atlast Japan will again have a good year to their name.There overall sales/profits/recognition/coustomer satisfication/happineess will incrase more than ever or else doubled.

In Europe MB is coming to capture the market again,and will not revive their mistakes and quality issues,will do pretty well than ever.
Now MB will sit at top for more time and it will be very difficult for any other European brand to clinch it's top spot.
MB there new King.
