what happens to all the new vehicles that dont sell in that year, where do they go?

March 5th, 2010 | by admin |

i see thousands on the lots, some must not be sold…? Where are they?

Eventually, the Manufacturer will give the dealership a final rebate amount (which is not disclosed to the public) and after that point, it’s the dealers discretion of what they want to do with the vehicles. Most are discounted at a loss to move old units because it’s almost always better than trying to sell the cars at an auction. I hope this helps.

    They sit at the dealer and the manufacturer offers special deals along with those offered by the dealer. These vehicles are great to buy~ you save a ton on a brand new car. Thats how I bought my Cobra.

    They all get sold eventually. Some may end up at auctions, but they will all get sold.

    Just like last seasons fashions, they will get marked down and put on sale but they will sell.

    You can thank the Government for clearing out unwanted and unsold models. They offer a buyback program to maufacturers for unsold or discontinued vehicles.

    For the rest of them, they become "left-overs" or "Program" cars. Both being sold to consumers at a very good dicount price.

    They also end up on eBay…

    They aren’t registered until they are purchased so they stay "new" and "current" until they are sold.

    Because of this, sometimes you can get new cars at knock down prices, especially if a new model has just come out.
