August Wholesale Used-Vehicle Market Stays Flat, With EVs Leading Gains Amid Strong Retail and Fleet Sales
Wholesale used-vehicle prices held steady in August, with the Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index (MUVVI) flat at 207.4, reflecting a 1.7% year-over-year increase. Seasonally adjusted values muted what was a stronger-than-normal gain, as non-adjusted prices rose 1% month over month and 1.8% year over year—well above the long-term average August increase of 0.1%. Tight inventory and strong consumer demand for affordable vehicles continued to support higher-than-expected valuations, particularly for EVs, which have now outperformed the broader market for five consecutive months. EV wholesale values rose 4.6% year over year, compared to 1.4% for non-EVs, with EVs also posting slightly stronger month-over-month gains.
