Auto Sales to Rise in 2010

PROJECTED 15% INCREASE MARKS FIRST YEAR OVER YEAR GROWTH SINCE 2005

DETROIT, Oct 21 (Reuters) - U.S. auto sales are projected to rise nearly one-fifth to 11.8 million units in 2010, influential industry tracking firm CSM Worldwide said on Wednesday, citing signs that the worst of the economic downturn had passed.
