2017 ANNUAL FINANCIAL PROFILE OF AMERICA S FRANCHISED NEW-CAR DEALERSHIPS NATIONAL AUTOMOBILE DEALERS ASSOCIATION
Overview This latest NADA Data, our comprehensive financial profile of new-car dealerships, includes the many major milestones achieved by the auto retail industry in 2017 (also look for our mid-year update, available in third quarter 2018). Among them: The nation s 16,802 franchised dealers sold 17.14 million light-duty vehicles. Total new-vehicle sales topped $1 trillion. Dealerships wrote more than 316 million repair orders, with service and parts sales exceeding $114 billion. At the end of 2017, dealership employment topped 1.1 million and by year-end 2018 should hit reach an all-time high. In addition to direct employment by dealerships, hundreds of thousands of other jobs in local communities depend on auto retail. Patrick Manzi Senior Economist, NADA Plus, dealerships spend billions of dollars in their communities on contracting and other services. This, of course, includes dealership employees wages, which in 2017 totaled more than $66 billion. Dealership compensation is far higher than that of other retail sectors. In fact, auto retail continues to boast one of the highest average salaries of any industry. While employment at a dealership has for decades been one of the best paths to the middle-class American dream, customers also have benefited. There is healthy competition between dealers to sell and service vehicles which has meant good deals for consumers. With sales in the average U.S. dealership relatively flat in 2017, the opening of new retail outlets became the main driver of the year s total dealership sales increase. And as margins on new-car sales have fallen since the recession, dealers have done an excellent job focusing on service and parts with those sales in the average dealership increasing 6 percent per year on an average annualized basis since 2009. Boyi Xu Economist, NADA There is also a section on the new- and used-vehicle consumer, with in-depth data from Experian. These stats include average monthly payment, average loan term, leasing and much more. Note: NADA Data was first published decades ago, and some of the methodology and data sources have naturally changed along the way. Therefore, previous reports may not be directly comparable to the current version.
