If the dealership had 100 employees in the Show room, each of them would have to process 76 customers a day. At an 8 hour work day, that would be one ~10 customers per hour.
This gives each employer 6 minutes to finish a sale.
Very unlikely, if not impossible.
The biggest dealer I have ever been to had like 5 salespersons in store at any given time.

And probably half that in financing people.
I worked for a dealership group for a few years, and we had 4 different buildings in our local campus. Like you said, maybe 3-6 sales people in any given shift in each building, but only 1-2 financing people on shift in the same building.
Not even mentioning that the easy sales still took 30-45 minutes to get through financing. There’s no possibile way that this is legit…
They don’t have to process customers if they’re fulfilling “a dealership in the US has asked for 5 of our triple motors in red”
They’re filing a transfer and then listing it as if “we sold 5 cars” to bump numbers
That’s what I’m asking if they can do, illicit, to try and make it look like they’re making sales
Car salespeople work longer than 8 hours. More like 10, especially nowadays where pickins are slim. Still a bunch of bullshit numbers no matter how you slice it. This really gives the same vibes as Trump inflating the value of his properties by lying about the square footage. I would bet there’s some kind of financial gain being made from this claim.

Indeed, they wanted the 40 million in rebates this many cars would bring from canada’s rebate program for EVs, right out of taxpayers pockets.
