“That is an incredible year-over-year drop,” said Tom Kloza, the organization’s chief oil analyst. “Some of it clearly has to do with changes in the vehicle fleet.”
Thank you in avance for your efforts.

Hi vil,
I would think that it means a drop (in sales?) from one year to the next.
But you might be better to wait for a response from one of the American members.
