- Market size
- U.S. new-car dealerships generated $1.3 trillion in total sales during 2025, including $117 billion in payroll and $94.4 billion in state sales tax paid. The latest Census Bureau Annual Integrated Economic Survey reports $3.497 trillion in 2024 revenue for NAICS 441110, new car dealers.[21][58]
- Forecast & CAGR
- Cox Automotive’s latest 2026 forecast calls for 16.1 million U.S. new-vehicle sales, up from its prior 15.8 million estimate and above 16.3 million sales in 2025 according to AutoNation’s industry summary. These sources provide annual unit forecasts rather than a multi-year dealership-industry CAGR.[1][22]
- Market share & regions
- Cox Automotive expects Asian brands to account for more than half of U.S. new-vehicle sales for a second consecutive quarter in 2026, while the traditional Detroit Three are forecast at just over 36%, their lowest recorded share. NADA’s 2025 state data covers 16,990 dealerships nationally, but the cited sources do not provide a consolidated regional sales-share table.[1][21]
- Segmentation
- Dealership revenue is divided among new vehicles, used vehicles, parts and service, and finance and insurance. In AutoNation’s 2025 results, these categories represented 49%, 28%, 17%, and 5% of revenue, respectively; parts and service generated 48% of gross profit and finance and insurance generated 30%.[22]
- Key players & concentration
- Large publicly traded dealership groups include AutoNation, Penske Automotive Group, Lithia Motors, Group 1 Automotive, and Asbury Automotive Group, alongside thousands of independent and regional operators. AutoNation reported $27.6 billion in 2025 revenue, while Penske reported that its 2025 acquisitions and openings represented approximately $1.6 billion in expected annualized revenue; the cited sources do not establish a comparable national market-concentration ratio.[22]
- Pricing
- AutoNation reported average 2025 revenue of $52,075 per new vehicle retailed, up 1.7% from $51,227 in 2024, while gross profit per new vehicle fell 15.8% to $2,564. The company attributed pressure on unit profitability to higher inventory and consumer affordability concerns.[22]
- Trends, drivers & challenges
- Inventory normalization has increased vehicle availability but moderated new-vehicle unit profitability. Cox Automotive cites higher fuel prices, elevated interest rates, economic uncertainty, improving credit availability, and sustained demand as key 2026 market factors; AutoNation also identifies 2025 tariffs on imported vehicles and parts as a risk to costs, prices, inventory, and demand.[1][22]
- Consumer behavior & competition
- Consumers are shifting toward hybrid vehicles and passenger cars, segments in which Asian manufacturers have a competitive advantage, according to Cox Automotive. Affordability is sustaining demand for used vehicles, while Cox forecasts 20.5 million used-retail sales and 38.5 million total used-vehicle sales in 2026.[1]
- M&A
- Penske Automotive Group acquired Penske Motor Group on November 19, 2025, adding four Toyota and Lexus dealerships, including Longo Toyota. Penske said its 2025 acquisitions and openings represented approximately $1.6 billion in expected annualized revenue, with $1.5 billion tied to the Penske Motor Group transaction; it also acquired Lexus of Orlando and Lexus of Winter Park in February 2026.[22]
- Regulation
- The FTC withdrew its Combating Auto Retail Scams Trade Regulation Rule in 2026 following federal-court decisions. The rule had been issued in 2023 and was scheduled to take effect July 30, 2024, indicating that dealer pricing, financing, add-on products, and disclosure requirements remain active regulatory issues even though that specific federal rule was withdrawn.[52]
- Latest news
- Cox Automotive raised its full-year 2026 U.S. new-vehicle sales forecast to 16.1 million units in its latest update, from 15.8 million previously. The revision reflects stronger-than-expected summer sales, improving credit availability, and durable consumer demand despite higher borrowing costs and economic uncertainty.[1]

03 Trends & forecasts
Top 10 Automobile Dealership Industry Trends & Forecasts 2027
What is changing in the automobile dealership industry, with the evidence behind each trend and a forecast for 2027.
Forecasts were generated by an AI model from the cited evidence. They are estimates, not guarantees.
01New-vehicle demand stays near 16 million
High confidenceCox Automotive raised its 2026 U.S. new-vehicle sales forecast to 16.1 million units from 15.8 million after stronger-than-expected summer sales, improving credit availability and durable consumer demand. October’s annualized sales pace was 15.5 million units, indicating resilience but also some affordability pressure.[1]
Forecast 2027: U.S. new-vehicle sales are likely to remain between 15.8 million and 16.5 million units in 2027, with growth limited by borrowing costs and vehicle prices. Dealership revenue should expand modestly through a combination of stable volume and higher average transaction values.
02Used vehicles remain the affordability outlet
High confidenceCox Automotive forecasts 20.5 million U.S. used-retail sales and 38.5 million total used-vehicle sales for 2026. The company says affordability challenges continue to support used demand, although total used-vehicle sales are expected to be approximately flat with 2025.[1]
Forecast 2027: Used retail sales should remain above 20 million units in 2027 and continue to attract payment-sensitive consumers. Dealers will likely place greater emphasis on sourcing, reconditioning and financing older vehicles rather than relying solely on new-car volume.
03Asian brands continue gaining share
High confidenceCox Automotive expects Asian brands to account for more than half of U.S. new-vehicle sales for a second consecutive quarter in 2026, while the traditional Detroit Three are forecast at just over 36%, their lowest recorded share. Cox links the shift partly to Asian manufacturers’ strength in hybrids and passenger cars.[1]
Forecast 2027: Asian brands are likely to retain more than half of U.S. new-vehicle sales during at least part of 2027. Dealer groups with strong Toyota, Honda, Hyundai, Kia and other Asian-brand representation should continue to attract buyers and command favorable inventory turns.
04Hybrid demand outpaces some powertrains
Medium confidenceCox Automotive reports sustained consumer migration toward hybrid vehicles and passenger cars, segments in which Asian manufacturers maintain significant advantages. Its August 2026 update also noted continued demand for hybrid vehicles among strong-performing Asian brands.[1]
Forecast 2027: Hybrids should gain additional showroom share in 2027 as consumers seek lower fuel costs without accepting the range, charging or resale uncertainties associated with some fully electric vehicles. Dealers will need more hybrid-specific sales training, parts capability and inventory planning.
05New-vehicle margins continue normalizing
High confidenceAutoNation reported 2025 revenue of $52,406 per new vehicle sold, up 3% year over year, while gross profit per new vehicle fell 7% to $3,432 and new-vehicle gross margin declined to 6.5% from 7.2%. The results indicate that higher transaction values are not translating into equivalent profitability.[68]
Forecast 2027: New-vehicle gross profit per unit is likely to remain below the exceptional levels reached during the inventory-constrained period. In 2027, dealers will increasingly depend on volume, finance income, accessories and after-sales retention to offset thinner front-end margins.
06Service becomes the earnings stabilizer
High confidenceNADA reports that franchised dealerships wrote more than 276 million repair orders in 2025, with service and parts sales exceeding $164 billion. Its 2025 service profile shows average customer mechanical labor rates of $182 and average dealership service-and-parts sales of $22.8 million.[21]
Forecast 2027: Service and parts should grow faster than new-vehicle gross profit in 2027 as the U.S. vehicle fleet ages and owners retain vehicles longer. Larger dealers are likely to expand technician capacity, mobile service and fixed-operations facilities to capture more repair and maintenance demand.
07EV sales grow, but unevenly
Medium confidenceCox Automotive estimated September 2026 new-EV sales at 86,632 units, equal to 6.5% of total new-vehicle sales. That was below the unusually strong September 2025 volume, but EV share increased because the overall market contracted more sharply.[1]
Forecast 2027: New EVs are likely to regain gradual share in 2027, but growth will vary considerably by brand, price and charging access. Dealers should maintain EV capability while avoiding inventory assumptions based on the rapid growth rates seen during incentive-driven periods.
08Used EV availability expands rapidly
High confidenceUsed retail EV sales reached approximately 124,000 units in the third quarter of 2026, up 11.4% year over year and representing a record 2.8% of used-retail sales. EVs represented about 16% of off-lease supply in the second half of 2026 and are projected to approach 19% by summer 2027.[1]
Forecast 2027: Used-EV listings and wholesale supply should rise materially in 2027, increasing consumer choice and putting pressure on residual values for some models. Dealers will need stronger battery-health assessment, EV reconditioning and pricing systems to manage the expanding segment.
09Wholesale used prices normalize
High confidenceCox Automotive expects its Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index to end 2026 up approximately 0.2% year over year, below the 2.3% long-term average. The company also forecasts wholesale volume to grow about 3% in 2027 as off-lease supply expands.[1]
Forecast 2027: Wholesale supply growth should make inventory acquisition easier in 2027 but increase depreciation risk. Dealers are likely to shorten holding periods, use more frequent appraisal updates and favor vehicles with predictable retail demand and lower reconditioning costs.
10Lease penetration remains subdued
Medium confidenceCox Automotive forecasts 3 million U.S. lease transactions in 2026 and lease penetration of 23%, citing pressure from the loss of the federal EV tax credit. The forecast is below the leasing contribution seen during earlier incentive-supported periods.[1]
Forecast 2027: Leasing should recover only gradually in 2027, with penetration likely remaining in the low-to-mid-20% range. Dealers will continue to use financing, certified pre-owned vehicles and payment-focused pricing to serve customers who previously would have leased.
