The passenger car segment was a main contributor to the the rise in used-vehicle prices in 2018.
The pricing for medium-duty trucks at auction was down for the second month in a row in September, according to J.D. Power’s October Commercial Truck Guidelines Industry Update.
Used truck prices are holding steady, with supply still dictating pricing. That’s the word from J.D. Power’s Commercial Truck Guidelines for March, which notes that February is the first month in any new year with a high enough volume of used truck auctions to allow analysts to identify market trends.
Buick and Lexus ranked highest in overall vehicle dependability, which improved 9% overall in the past year, according to J.D. Power's annual Vehicle Dependability Study. Fleets using a three-year replacement model may benefit from higher resale prices.
J.D. Powers analysts found prices for used trucks remain high as volume levels dropped, while retail prices continue to hold steady as well.
Generally, medium-duty segments are holding up well, with cabovers and lighter GVW conventional trucks performing the best.
On the other hand, U.S. drivers show interest in many advanced driver assistance features, a new study from J.D. Power finds.
Lexus and Porsche vehicles remained at the top of the J.D. Power 2017 Vehicle Dependability Study, while Toyota and General Motors collected multiple category awards, the firm announced Feb. 22.
Driver assist technologies make new vehicles more appealing to their owners, according to the J.D. Power 2016 U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) Study.
Kia Motors supplanted Porsche at the top of J.D. Power’s 2016 U.S. Initial Quality Study that measures new vehicle owner satisfaction in the first 90 days. It was the first time in 27 years that a non-premium brand led the study.
