Sales of new light vehicles in USA fell in April (JD Power/GlobalData: -7.3%; Cox Automotive: -5.4%, -6.8% after revision; S&P Global Mobility: -4.5%). In April 2025, industry was still feeling effects of tariff‑driven rush to retail lots, as additional 53,000 consumers accelerated purchases ahead of anticipated tariff impacted price increases. As result, traditional year‑over‑year comparisons provide limited insight into underlying health of consumer demand again in April 2026. Stripping out inflated prior-year baseline, April 2026 points to continued resilience in new‑vehicle demand, even as consumers contend with elevated fuel prices and broader economic uncertainty, King (JD Power) said
