Crashing second-hand market: -18% in July

04.08.2022

The ACI “Auto-Trend” bulletin also photographs the contraction of radiation from the PRA: the turnover of the fleet in circulation is at risk.

The used car market is increasingly in crisis: the 226,477 changes of ownership recorded by the Public Automobile Register in July decreased by 18.6% compared to the same month last year.

However, for every 100 new cars, 200 used cars were sold in July (same average for the first seven months of 2022).

Diesel fuel is always the preferred (48.6% of the total used market in July), albeit down compared to the same month last year. On the other hand, purchases of hybrid and electric cars increased.

Motorcycles are also in the red, down by 6.7% with just 62,173 transfers of ownership.

As stated in the latest “Auto-Trend” bulletin, published online by the Automobile Club of Italy, the market is in collapse in the first seven months of 2022: -11.9% cars, -6.9% motorcycles and – 14.9% for the total number of vehicles compared to last year.

The statistics also show the trend of radiation from the PRA, essential for analyzing the evolution of the fleet: in July, car radiation decreased by 32.9%, stopping at 86,025 units. For every 100 new cars, 76 were canceled in July and 81 in the first seven months of 2022.

It’s no better for two-wheelers, whose 10,756 cancellations from the PRA in July are down 5.2% compared to the same month in 2021.

Since the beginning of the year, radiation has decreased by 30.7% for cars, 2.4% for motorcycles and 28.2% for vehicles in general, effectively stopping the renewal of the fleet in our country. .
