Japanese automakers agreed last spring to a two- year, voluntary quota system set to end in April 1983, but Chase said the restraints have had a “negligible ef- fect” on boosting domestic sales and profits. “It is not clear that the perceived initial advantage is going to materialize,” said Chase analyst William Pochiluk. “The restraints are likely to result in the Japanese automobile manufacturers adjusting sales allocations to Council, acting on recommendations of its traffic and safety committee, decided not to impose truck , restrictions on Garden Avenue and Hope Road, not a richer mix to improve profitability and to reduce the: vulnerability associated with protectionist measures,” the Chase fore- cast said. Pochiluk said the quotas could prompt the Japanese to enter the full-size and personal car markets “where the domestic producers have held the _ historical ad- vantage.” The forecaster said quotas likely will be rolled back but only when there is “a sha acceleration in the domestic market.” He said this upturn will occur next spring if the economy improves.

However, some council members wanted more quotas don’t work — 2.3. million by foreign producers. Automakers sold 11 millioncars in the peak 1978 model year. Chase credited the gloomy forecast to the overall economic downturn, high car prices, depressed fleet sales and “the ability of the 1982 new model launch to build early momentum.” Podiluk said economists were surprised most at poor fleet sales. In the fall of the year, fleet sales are im- portant. This has been devastating.” Pochiluk said. He said fleet purchasers are waiting for interest rates to fall. Chase equates a 1 per cent increase in the prime rate to a loss in sales of 150,000 units.
