The transition period between model years is typically the time when dealerships drop prices or offer incentives to make room for new arrivals. But according to a new study from iSeeCars, 22 new 2025 models are about to enter “leftover” status, seven of which are under $50,000.
Chris Pyle, an auto expert with JustAnswer, said that there are two reasons for leftover inventory. “The manufacturer made more than the market would buy,” he explained. “Dealerships ordered too many of them, and the area they are located in just does not have much buyer interest in them.” These cars may not be as appealing in the new year, which could give buyers some leverage.
