Show Notes

JD Power’s Used Car Market Outlook showed strong trends for the industry as well as a few challenges. Both new and used car prices shot up to record highs in 2022, according to last month’s report. Average Used Car Retail prices were $30,816 for 2022, nearly $4,000 higher than 2021 and $9,000 over 2019. JD Power provided an example of this by looking at a 2016 Toyota Camry. In January of 2019, the price of that car was $16,351, then it dropped to $13m546 in January of 2021 before climbing again to a price of $17,482 in November of 2022. During 2022 the average used car prices actually topped $32,000 before dropping in the fourth quarter. New Car prices averaged $45,000 for 2022, nearly $5,00 more than 2021 and almost $12,00 more than 2019. JD Power’s annual valuation services show that used vehicle process have peaked and should soften in this year and in 2024.
