Registration is generally done when the consumer takes possession of the vehicle.

I understand when registration is done, but that does not answer the question.
Are the numbers what the makers sell to the dealers but have yet been sold to a buyer, or are they legit sells to buyers? I can see where the makers pad their numbers by using what was sold to the dealers to have on the lots as they've technically sold the car, but it's a misleading number. Same game as storage makers using powers of 10 vs powers of 2 in their capacity claims.

the quote says “registrations” therefore it is when possession is taken
