If there’s one thing this year’s NADA Show demonstrated, it’s that the industry is hyper-focused on electric vehicles (EVs). As new models are introduced to the market—with many more to come—and more states installing charging stations, it’s no surprise that EVs were top of mind. To help the industry better understand the widespread growth, ahead of the show we compiled an Auto Finance Year-in-Review report to break down all things EV—from financing trends to vehicle segments and more. In 2022, EVs comprised 5.32% of new vehicle financing, marking a notable increase compared to 3.09% in 2021, 1.69% in 2020, and 1.46% in 2019. As EVs continue to build influence in the automotive industry, it’s important for professionals to understand trends that will enable them to plan for the future. EV pricing is on the rise Taking a deeper dive into the average price for both new and used EVs, the data continues to show the average loan amount is typically higher than other fuel types. In 2022, the average loan amount for a new EV was $55,865, up from $48,190 in 2021. On the used side, the average loan amount increased from $41,482 to $53,367 year-over-year. When comparing the average monthly payments between EVs and other fuel types—such as gasoline—there is a noteworthy difference. In 2022, the average monthly payment was $869 for a new EV and $792 for used. In comparison, the average monthly payment for a gasoline vehicle came in at $659 for new and $511 for used. Banks lead in EV financing While lenders navigate their way through the EV space, banks are currently leading in EV financing, despite other lenders such as credit unions offering longer terms for used EVs and lower interest rates for both new and used. It’s important to note that banks comprised 27.32% of the total market share in vehicle financing in Q3 2022, just behind credit unions, who currently hold the largest share at 28.44%. In 2022, credit unions offered notably lower rates for EVs, coming in at 3.49% for new and 4.48% for used. In comparison, banks offered 4.03% for new and 4.81% for used and captives were at 3.99% for new and 7.37% for used. Though, banks had slightly longer terms for new EVs in 2022, credit unions had longer terms for used. Last year, banks gave consumers 68.65 months for new and 70.57 months for used and credit unions offered 68.61 months for new and 72.04 months for used. Meanwhile, captives had 64.91 months for new and 68.87 months for used. While it’s no surprise credit unions are offering considerably lower rates and longer terms for used EVs—as they typically focus on the used vehicle space—it can be beneficial for all lenders to utilize this data in order to create more opportunities to gain additional market share as a whole. As the EV market continues to grow, understanding the ongoing trends will enable automotive professionals to plan effectively and efficiently when assisting consumers in finding a vehicle that fits their lifestyle.

The economic volatility of the last several years has left local, state, and even federal budgets tighter than usual, meaning agencies must collect every dollar owed and do it efficiently. So how do agencies continue to deliver the services citizens expect and have given their tax dollars to support? It starts with an efficient, effective collections strategy. The need for collections An important source of revenue for many government agencies is overdue obligations. These might include: Business, personal, and property taxesChild supportFinesCourt fees By collecting on these obligations – and doing so efficiently – agencies can better fund themselves to serve their citizens. Debt collections process While many agencies are, at least initially, responsible for their debt management efforts, there are many layers to the collections process. Step 1: The agency manages the collections process independently (manually or automatically). Step 2: The Bureau of Fiscal Service takes over servicing delinquent debts and work with the debtor to pay it, suspend it, or end collections efforts. Step 3: The debt may be sent to a Private Collection Agency (PCA). Better collections with better data To collect effectively, agencies need to prioritize and streamline debt assessment and collection, which starts with better data. First, better data – like the data provided via skip tracing – enables better management of data surrounding moves, name changes, changes in marital status, and more, all of which makes for better collections efforts. Second is prioritizing collections efforts to focus on those citizens with the best ability to repay, making the most of existing resources and leveraging automated tools where available. Third is keeping collections efforts compliant with all rules and regulations, which is made easier with the right partner. How Experian can help Experian assists organizations of all shapes and sizes to monitor, segment, and prioritize receivable accounts. We leverage timely and relevant information for greater insight into skip tracing, identify the best times for collections efforts, and monitor, measure, test, and refine strategies to maximize results.

Believe it or not, 2023 is underway, and the new year could prove to be a challenging one for apartment operators in certain ways. In 2021 and into the beginning of 2022, demand for apartment rentals approached record levels, which shrunk vacancy rates and increased monthly rents. The rest of the year remained stagnant while other regions saw some decline, but inflation and other economic factors have many apartment communities confronted with labor shortages, and other challenges which can certainly make leasing and operating properties difficult. Against that backdrop, here are some of the technologies and solutions operators should consider for optimizing their success and efficiencies in 2023 and beyond. Tools that allow prospective residents to have a fully digital and contactless leasing experience — During the pandemic, many operators rushed to implement virtual tours, onsite self-guided tours and other solutions that allowed prospects to apply for and finalize their leases remotely. Prospective renters have undoubtedly grown fond of navigating the leasing process from their homes and taking self-guided tours when onsite, and the demand for digital solutions will surely continue even after COVID distancing is no longer a factor. Therefore, apartment owners and operators should think of these capabilities as long-term investments and always seek ways to optimize the digital leasing experience they provide. Along those lines, forward-thinking operators are employing solutions that allow them to embed credit functionality into their websites and mobile apps using modern, RESTful APIs like the Experian ConnectSM API. Not only does it enhance the information included in a lease application with credit report data, but it also allows prospective renters to easily apply for more than one property at once, enhancing their experience at the same time. Automated lease application form fill — By using information entered by a lease applicant (such as first name, last name, postal code and the last four digits of a Social Security number), this technology uses information from credit files to automatically fill other data fields in a lease application. This tool reduces the effort required by prospective renters to complete the application process, resulting in a better user experience, faster completions, greater accuracy and reduced application abandonment. Automated verification of income, assets, and employment — These solutions eliminate the need for associates to manually verify these components of a lease application. Manual verification is both time-consuming and prone to human error. In addition, automated tools eliminate the opportunity for applicants to supply falsified supporting documentation. The best part about verification is the variety of options available; leasing managers can pick and choose verification options that meet their needs. Renter Risk Score™ and custom-built scores and models applying RentBureau data — These options offer a score designed expressly to predict the likelihood that an applicant will pay rent. Renter risk score can be purchased with preset score logic, or for high-volume decisions, a model can be built calibrated for your specific leasing decisioning needs. A rental payment history report — The RentBureau Consumer Profile tool can provide detailed insight into a lease applicant's history of meeting their lease obligations, which is invaluable information during the lease application process. Having a tool to report rental payment histories to credit bureaus can be a powerful financial amenity. By reporting these payments, operators can help residents build credit histories and improve financial well-being. Such an amenity can attract and retain residents and provide them with a powerful incentive to pay rent on time and in full. In the end, tools that seek to manage risk and create improved experiences for prospective renters have a multitude of benefits. They create meaningful efficiencies for onsite staff by greatly reducing the time, resources and paperwork required to process applications and verify applicant information. This gives overextended associates more time to handle their many other responsibilities. Beyond just efficiency savings, these technologies and solutions also can help operators avoid the complications and loss of income that result from evictions. In fact, the National Association of Realtors estimates that average eviction costs $7,685. Managing risk and providing the best possible customer experience should always be top of mind for rental housing operators. And with the solutions outlined above, they can effectively accomplish those goals in 2023 and beyond.

With the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show set to kickoff later this week, it seemed fitting to explore how the shifting dynamics of the used vehicle market might impact dealers and buyers over the coming year. Shedding light on some of the registration and finance trends, as well as purchasing behaviors, can help dealers and manufacturers stay ahead of the curve. And just like that, the Special Report: Automotive Consumer Trends Report was born. As I was sifting through the data, one of the trends that stood out to me was the neck-and-neck race between Millennials and Gen X for supremacy in the used vehicle market. Five years ago, in 2019, Millennials were responsible for 33.3% of used retail registrations, followed by Gen X (29.5%) and Baby Boomers (26.8%). Since then, Baby Boomers have gradually fallen off, and Gen X continues to close the already minuscule gap. Through October 2024, Millennials accounted for 31.6%, while Gen X accounted for 30.4%. But trends can turn on a dime if the last year offers any indication. Over the last rolling 12 months (October 2023-October 2024), Gen X (31.4%) accounted for the majority of used vehicle registrations compared to Millennials (30.9%). Of course, the data is still close, and what 2025 holds is anyone’s guess, but understanding even the smallest changes in market share and consumer purchasing behaviors can help dealers and manufacturers adapt and navigate the road ahead. Although there are similarities between Millennials and Gen X, there are drastic differences, including motivations and preferences. Dealers and manufacturers should engage them on a generational level. What are they buying? Some of the data might not come as a surprise but it’s a good reminder that consumers are in different phases of life, meaning priorities change. Over the last rolling 12 months, Millennials over-indexed on used vans, accounting for more than one-third of registrations. Meanwhile, Gen X over-indexed on used trucks, making up nearly one-third of registrations, and Gen Z over-indexed on cars (accounting for 17.1% of used car registrations compared to 14.6% of overall used vehicle registrations). This isn’t surprising. Many Millennials have young families and may need extra space and functionality, while Gen Xers might prefer the versatility of the pickup truck—the ability to use it for work and personal use. On the other hand, Gen Zers are still early in their careers and gravitate towards the affordability and efficiency of smaller cars. Interestingly, although used electric vehicles only make up a small portion of used retail registrations (less than 1%), Millennials made up nearly 40% over the last rolling 12 months, followed by Gen X (32.2%) and Baby Boomers (15.8%). The market at a bird’s eye view Pulling back a bit on the used vehicle landscape, over the last rolling 12 months, CUVs/SUVs (38.9%) and cars (36.6%) accounted for the majority of used retail registrations. And nearly nine-in-ten used registrations were non-luxury vehicles. What’s more, ICE vehicles made up 88.5% of used retail registrations over the same period, while alternative-fuel vehicles (not including BEVs) made up 10.7% and electric vehicles made up 0.8%. At the finance level, we’re seeing the market shift ever so slightly. Since the beginning of the pandemic, one of the constant narratives in the industry has been the rising cost of owning a vehicle, both new and used. And while the average loan amount for a used non-luxury vehicle has gone up over the past five years, we’re seeing a gradual decline since 2022. In 2019, the average loan amount was $22,636 and spiked $29,983 in 2022. In 2024, the average loan amount reached $28,895. Much of the decline in average loan amounts can be attributed to the resurgence of new vehicle inventory, which has resulted in lower used values. With new leasing climbing over the past several quarters, we may see more late-model used inventory hit the market in the next few years, which will most certainly impact used financing. The used market moving forward Relying on historical data and trends can help dealers and manufacturers prepare and navigate the road ahead. Used vehicles will always fit the need for shoppers looking for their next vehicle; understanding some market trends will help ensure dealers and manufacturers can be at the forefront of helping those shoppers.

The automotive industry is constantly changing. Shifting consumer demands and preferences, as well as dynamic economic factors, make the need for data-driven insights more important than ever. As we head into the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA) Show this week, we wanted to explore some of the trends in the used vehicle market in our Special Report: State of the Automotive Finance Market Report. Packed with valuable insights and the latest trends, we’ll take a deep dive into the multi-faceted used vehicle market and better understand how consumers are financing used vehicles. 9+ model years grow Although late-model vehicles tend to represent much of the used vehicle finance market, we were surprised by the gradual growth of 9+ model year (MY) vehicles. In 2019, 9+MY vehicles accounted for 26.6% of the used vehicle sales. Since then, we’ve seen year-over-year growth, culminating with 9+MY vehicles making up a little more than 30% of used vehicle sales in 2024. Perhaps more interesting though, is who is financing these vehicles. Five years ago, prime and super prime borrowers represented 42.5% of 9+MY vehicles, however, in 2024, those consumers accounted for nearly 54% of 9+MY originations. Among the more popular 9+MY segments, CUVs and SUVs comprised 36.9% of sales in 2024, up from 35.2% in 2023, while cars went from 44.3% to 42.9% year-over-year and pickup trucks decreased from 15.9% to 15.6%. 2024 highlights by used vehicle age group To get a better sense of the overall used market, the segments were broken down into three age groups—9+MY, 4-8MY, and current +3MY—and to no surprise, the finance attributes vary widely. While we’ve seen the return of new vehicle inventory drive used vehicle values lower, it could be a sign that consumers are continuing to seek out affordable options that fit their lifestyle. In fact, the average loan amount for a 9+MY vehicle was $19,376 in 2024, compared to $24,198 for a vehicle between 4-8 years old and $32,381 for +3MY vehicle. Plus, more than 55% of 9+MY vehicles have monthly payments under $400. That’s not an insignificant number for people shopping with the monthly payment in mind. In 2024, the average monthly payment for a used vehicle that falls under current+3MY was $608. Meanwhile, 4-8MY vehicles came in at an average monthly payment of $498, and 9+MY vehicles had a $431 monthly payment. Taking a deeper dive into average loan amounts based on specific vehicle types—as of 2024, current +3MY cars came in at $28,721, followed by CUVs/SUVs ($31,589) and pickup trucks ($40,618). As for 4-8MY vehicles, cars came in with a loan amount of $22,013, CUVs/SUVs were at $23,133, and pickup trucks at $31,114. Used 9+MY cars had a loan amount of $19,506, CUVs/SUVs came in at $17,350, and pickup trucks at $22,369. With interest rates remaining top of mind for most consumers as we’ve seen them increase in recent years, understanding the growth from 2019-2024 can give a holistic picture of how the market has shifted over time. For instance, the average interest rate for a used current+3MY vehicle was 8.0% in 2019 and grew to 10.2% in 2024, the average rate for a 4-8MY vehicle went from 10.3% to 12.9%, and the average rate for a 9+MY vehicle increased from 11.4% to 13.8% in the same time frame. Looking ahead to the used vehicle market It’s important for automotive professionals to understand and leverage the data of the used market as it can provide valuable insights into trending consumer behavior and pricing patterns. While we don’t exactly know where the market will stand in a few years—adapting strategies based on historical data and anticipating shifts can help professionals better prepare for both challenges and opportunities in the future. As used vehicles remain a staple piece of the automotive industry, making informed decisions and optimizing inventory management will ensure agility as the market continues to shift.
