The summer of 2023 has seen a notable upswing in the U.S. automotive industry, with new vehicle inventory levels increasing from the same point a year ago. The rise in inventory can be credited to a slow return to some form of normalcy in production after a few years of challenges. As the automotive landscape continues to go through changes, it is crucial for dealership groups to take steps to leverage their stockpiled inventory effectively.

The Surge in Inventory:

Recent statistics from Auto News paint a vivid picture of the current situation. New vehicle inventories in the U.S. have risen by an ample amount, reaching a 53-day supply or 1.95 million units, a 75 percent increase compared to last year. This growing stockpile of unsold vehicles shows an upward trend from where it stood even the month before. This surge has been seen most notably in electric vehicles (EVs) and with full-size cars with around 100 days of inventory stockpiled.

Opportunity with Wealth Management:

Amidst the shifting landscape, dealership groups are dealing with both challenges and opportunities. It is essential for them to consider how to make the most of their inventory. This is where wealth management comes into play.
