U.S.,New Vehicle Sales,Electric Vehicle

New vehicle sales in the U.S. increased by nearly 5% in the first quarter, despite high interest rates. However, the growth of electric vehicle sales slowed down due to concerns about limited range and availability. Automakers had to reduce prices as inventory levels rose, resulting in the largest decline in average sales price for the month of March. Discounts and lease deals were also more prevalent in March compared to the previous year.

New vehicle sales in the U.S. rose nearly 5% from January through March, as buyers stayed in the market despite high interest rates. But electric vehicle sales growth slowed during the first three months of the year, with mainstream buyers wary of limited range and availability. Automakers, most of which reported U.S. sales numbers Tuesday, sold nearly 3.8 million vehicles in the first quarter versus a year ago, for an annual rate of 15.4 million in sales.

With inventory on dealer lots growing toward pre-pandemic levels, auto companies were forced to reduce prices. J.D. Power said the average sales price in March was $44,186, down 3.6% from a year ago and the largest recorded decline for the month of March. The company said automaker discounts in March were two-thirds higher than a year ago, around $2,800. That includes increased availability of lease deals. J.D. Power expected leases to account for almost a quarter of retail sales last month, up from 19.6% in March of last year
