SUVs are king accounting for 60% of sales in both categories.
Used sales are composed almost exclusively of electrified vehicles.
You’ve probably read somewhere that there’s a global chip shortage going on right now. Some experts believe it will last into 2023 and beyond. At present, reduced production means that inventories remain low, and used cars prices are still sky-high. In both cases, good and popular models are moving very fast.
There’s a roughly 3/5 chance that, as a replacement vehicle shopper, you’re looking into an SUV or a crossover. The odds are even greater if a new vehicle is on the radar as no less than nine out of 10 belong to one of these two categories. Meanwhile, used vehicle shoppers are clearly more interested in efficiency. Out of the 10 hottest used vehicles on the market in March, nine out of 10 feature some form or degree of electrification.
Out of over 150,000 new and used cars sold in March 2022, iSeeCars determined that these vehicles were in the highest demand in the current market:
