Say Goodbye To These Car Brands

Today I go over the sales figures for different automakers that sell cars in the USA car market!

I’m shocked Tavares still has a job. Just completely mismanaged all the American brands in the Stellantis portfolio. There is a reason why every executive of those brands has resigned or left. French have no idea what the American market wants or what a V8 is

[Henry_Jones]

Stelantis, fca, chrysler. Doesnt matter. Theyre still classic chrysler doin the classic chrysler mistakes that always gets them into trouble.

Toyota recovery - Build a lot more simple and reliable Rav 4, 4 cylinder, ICE and cut the unit price to $25K.

[Modeltnick]

It’s all about value and quality. Not rocket surgery.

Dodge jeep ram will be up for sale....again.... in a few years.

[YuenanCao]

Given the higher rates and prices I am shocked they are doing so well

[camgere]

Low trade in values and high interest rates must be causing a lot of teeth nashing at dealerships as people try to trade in their old cars for new ones. Dealers can only allow you to get so upside down and there is a limit on how high a payment people can afford. SHTF.

Lies lies lies! Car market is crashing across the board. Peeps worried about food not new cars with crazy interest rates, msrp etc

[MrRMB]

So, which brands are we saying goodbye to?

[lwd]

I had two Dodge Rams in the pass a 2017 and a 2019 and at the time they were the best bank for your buck the reason why you got a ram is because you got a lot for your money in those days now they became a premium brand and it's not worth it I have a Chevy 1500 right now and I'm trying to get another Ram because of their discounts but there leasing programs are awful

[eugeniobautista]

KBB won’t even give you a resale value for Stelantis vehicles online

6:15 Good Car Bad Car's data has to be super wrong here. YTD they have massively higher sales in Q1 (52k, 52k, 54k) than Q2 (19k, 19k, 19k) despite Tesla's quarterly deliveries (worldwide) being higher in Q2 than Q1. No way their Q2 sales in the US dropped to 1/3 that of Q1 while worldwide sales increased.

Tesla's Q1 (global) deliveries were 386, 810 to Q2's 443, 956. The math ain't mathin' for US sales to go from 158k to 57k quarter-over-quarter. Assuming their proportion is correct for Q1 and projecting that to Q2--the US sales should be approx 181k. Which would then propagate through to be 339k YTD which is approximately flat YoY (which makes sense as their global sales are pretty flat YoY).

The car companies are just considering going out of business.

[gulfmancardenas]

Wound the vehicle ford sold how many of them were commercial vehicles

[geoffreysmith]

These per-quarter YoY results, are OK, but not great. But no worries! 2023 sales tanked in the 2nd half of the year, after the cheap financing dried up. So the 2nd half of 2024 numbers will be awesome compared to those of the previous year. Wall Street analysts and C-Suite types will tell us how the industry is on the right track, stock prices will be up (justifying their YE bonuses) blah blah blah, but in reality little will have changed, and it's just BAU.

[scottluthy]

It has been coming for a long time. Vehicles are expensive and people want quality reliable cars. Toyota, Mazda, Honda, the top three. Toyotas trucks are bringing the brand down. I think Mazda is underrated and should be looked at.

[YuenanCao]

Wow a lot of early drinkers commenting so far LOL

8:05 Does Audi have good leases? Hah. When I did a lease in 2018 I test drove a number of vehicles and the salesman at the Audi dealership when I mentioned how terrible their lease terms were basically accused their German competition (BMW and Merc) of cooking the books with unreasonably high residuals which made no sense because they'd be the ones left holding the bag having a residual higher than they could resell it for. Seemed like a scumbag salesman and dealership, I didn't bother shopping Audi at all when my lease ended in 2021 correspondingly.
