New Cars - US - September 2018

"New vehicle sales are stagnant in terms of growth and the market has shifted toward more profitable crossovers and SUVs. Brands have introduced more and more models into the category to take advantage of shifting consumer needs and preferences. While the new vehicle market has shifted toward a new vehicle category, consumers continue to shop based on the pillars of affordability, safety, and reliability."
