New Car Inventory in 2025: Winners and Losers in October

In October 2025, U.S. dealerships have 2.83 million new vehicles in stock, representing an increase from this spring’s car buying rush.

Retail sales of new vehicles have followed seasonal patterns this year. Although trade wars, global instability, and broader economic conditions have all added complexity to today’s car market, 2025 has mostly been good news in terms of inventory.

Here are important definitions that will help you understand and interpret the car market data below:

Market Day supply: This is the number of days needed to sell all vehicles in inventory, based on the previous month’s daily selling rate. Learn more about MDS.

Inventory: This is the unit count of vehicles on hand at dealerships, factory lots, ports of entry, and in transit.

All data is sourced from CarEdge Pro and Cox Automotive.
