London, June 06, 2022, SPA -- The UK's automotive industry suffered its second weakest May in three decades, figures show, according to the dpa. Just 124,394 new cars were registered last month, the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) said. That was down 20.6% compared with the same month last year. It was the second lowest number of new cars registered in May since 1992. Only May 2020 - when the UK was in a coronavirus lockdown - was worse for the industry. The SMMT attributed the decline to shortages of components which are reducing vehicle availability "despite demand." --SPA 11:38 LOCAL TIME 08:38 GMT 0009 www.spa.gov.sa/w1742977
