Automakers Expected to Reach $49 Billion in June
ALG,
the industry benchmark for determining the future resale value of a
vehicle, projects U.S. revenue from new vehicle sales will reach $49
billion for the month of June, up 1.5 percent from a year ago.
ALG expects a decline of $678 million in revenue for automakers versus
June 2016. Additionally, incentive spending is projected to increase 9.7
percent.
"With the exception of Hyundai and Subaru, all automakers are showing
gains in Average Transaction Prices (ATP (News - Alert)) on a year over year basis.
Mercedes-Benz showed the largest gains in ATP, up 5.6% thanks to the
success of the all new E Class and red-hot GLC Class," said Eric Lyman,
ALG's Chief Industry Analyst. "As a key indicator of retail industry
health, ALG is pleased to see incentive spending as a percentage of ATP
remain relatively flat. The industry continues to work through high
inventory levels, with incentives being utilized to offload aging
inventory. The rise in ATP can be attributed to more expensive light
trucks and well-equipped new vehicles with high-end features that
consumers are increasingly demanding."
ALG estimates ATP for a new light vehicle was $32,900 in June, up 1.5
percent from a year ago. Average incentive spending per unit grew by
$315 to $3,550. The ratio of incentive spending to ATP is expected to be
10.8 percent, up from 8.1 percent a year ago.
