Sales of new light vehicles in USA fell in March as well as in Q1 (JD Power/GlobalData: -14.8%, -7.4% to 3.66 million; Cox Automotive: -14.2%, -12% after revision, -6.5% to 3.67 million; S&P Global Mobility: -13.7%, -5.1% to 3.7 million; Edmunds: n/a, -6.3% to 3.69 million). March 2025 sales were inflated by consumers who rushed to showrooms in anticipation of big increase in vehicle prices due to tariffs. Putting aside last year’s results, March 2026 shows continued strong demand for new vehicles, despite concerns around fuel prices and economic uncertainty. In fact, March results would have been even stronger were it not for unusually low availability of one of the industry’s best-selling vehicles (Ford F-Series/F-150), King (JD Power) said
