Dealers start to push back on inventories; suppliers' many challenges emerge at CAR Management Briefing Seminars |
|
|
Welcome to today's edition of the Daily 5.
We have rarely heard dealers complain about this since the pandemic, but Sonic Automotive has begun to push back on rising inventories of some auto brands.
Specifically, Stellantis and Nissan.
"Stellantis, Nissan, some of these brands are 100, 200 days' supply of product out there that are just ridiculous, that we're fighting against in terms of managing age, which reduces the front-end" profit per vehicle, Sonic Automotive President Jeff Dyke said in our lead Daily 5 story today.
Meanwhile, two other stories in our report from the 2024 CAR Management Briefing Seminars illustrate the latest supply chain problems stemming from the industry's painful transition to electric vehicles.
Come back here to Automotive News tomorrow morning for a compelling story about exciting new battery chemistries that could impact the EVs of the future.
Until then, have a great rest of your day.
