The Trends

 

Trend #1: The industry has plateaued. Brands can no longer rely on industry growth to drive sales. 

Trend #2: Loyalty at all-time high for both vehicle make and model. Reaching buyers most likely to switch brands is key for growth.

Trend #3: SUVs will have more competition joining the segment, but the segment isn’t growing.

Trend #4: Discontinued brands and vehicles create opportunity in a flat market.

Trend #5: Luxury brand sales can come from outside traditional luxury segments.
