Small cars saw the biggest weekly fall in average wholesale value while small pickups saw the strongest retention last week, according to Black Book’s Nov. 13 Market Insights report.
Used vehicle values increased slightly in April as tracked by Black Book's Used Vehicle Retention Index that measures values of 2- to 6-year old vehicles, according to the company.
Smaller cars, including sub-compact cars and compact cars, are two of the three vehicle segments displaying the greatest single-month drop in value, according to the recent Black Book Market Insights report.
Smaller cars showed the highest depreciation levels in June, while SUVs, pickups, and vans showed relative strength in a used-car market that's now tilted toward larger, less fuel efficient vehicles.
Compact SUVs and cargo minivans paced a strong April for remarketers, as used vehicles from the 2008-2012 model years rose 0.9 percent in value in a month that's typically one of the strongest of the year for auctions.
Used vehicles sold at auction lost a scant 0.3 percent of their value in March, a month known for strong retention as tax-refunded buyers come out in droves, according to Black Book.
