Cox Automotive Forecast: Improved Inventory Levels, Higher Fleet Sales Expected to Support Improving January U.S. Auto Sales
01/25/2023
New-vehicle sales in January are expected to show a surprising gain when announced next week, even though market conditions have not appreciably changed. The January 2023 auto sales pace, or seasonally adjusted annual rate (SAAR), is expected to finish near 15.6 million, a large increase from December’s 13.3 million pace, according to a forecast released today by Cox Automotive. However, some of the gain is due…

Cox Automotive Forecast: U.S. Auto Sales Expected to Finish 2022 Down 8% Year Over Year, as General Motors Reclaims Top Spot, Honda and Nissan Fall Significantly
12/28/2022
Updated, Jan. 4, 2023 – While sales in December likely came in slightly higher than the initial Cox Automotive forecast, and above year-ago levels, the bottom-line result will hardly be cheered as a success. In fact, December sales continue to demonstrate a softening of retail demand, although demand has not collapsed. Sales in December, and in the months prior, were aided by improving new-vehicle inventory levels…

Cox Automotive Forecast: November New-Vehicle Sales Expected to Jump 10.8% Year Over Year, as Inventory Levels Continue to Improve
11/28/2022
Updated, Dec. 1, 2022 – When considering the new-vehicle market in the U.S., the Cox Automotive Economics and Industry Insights team has been trying to balance two distinct market realities: supply and demand. For much of 2022, tight inventory (supply) has been an anchor holding back the market. And indeed, with inventory historically low, new-vehicle sales have been depressed. Through the end of Q3, the new-vehicle market…

Cox Automotive October Forecast: New-Vehicle Inventory Levels Are Improving, But Sales Remain Low
10/25/2022
UPDATED, Nov. 2, 2022 – Spurred in part by improving inventory, early indications of new-vehicle sales in October suggest sales volumes will come in above the Cox Automotive forecast. Gains from October 2021 were all but guaranteed, as last October was a historically bad month for new-vehicle sales. But reports from Hyundai, Kia, Toyota and other Asian brands indicate total industry sales volumes may be higher…

Cox Automotive Lowers Full-Year New-Vehicle Sales Forecast as September Volumes Hold Steady at Low Level; Q3 Sales Nearly Equal to 2021 Levels
09/28/2022
UPDATED, Oct. 3, 2022 – With the books closing on third-quarter new-vehicle sales, the market indeed—as forecast—is stuck in a low gear. At a brand level, sales results are markedly inconsistent. Hyundai and Kia are confirming record results; General Motors and Toyota finished the quarter with strong numbers. Others, including Buick, Nissan and Honda, continue to struggle. At an industry level, just the opposite is true. New-vehicle sales…
