Weekly New Vehicle Sales Data by State and OEM - Covid-19 Update

[David Steinberg]

We've started sharing some of our Sales Data to visualize the effects of Covid-19 on new car sales. We will be making more updates shortly, but this link explores the effect from March 9 - March 28th as states began their shelter in place orders.

This data has now been shared out in an interactive dashboard to show the effects of COVID-19 on new car sales by state and OEM. Data is refreshed weekly: https://lps.foureyes.io/auto-sales-during-covid-19

Take a look and reach out with any questions.

Thanks for that David and Laura. Are you the owners and creators of Four eyes? I'm shocked the numbers arent higher on the drop off but April 2020 vs 2019 will be the better comparison.

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing and for the video demo. We crawl over 53,000 dealer websites in the U.S. and Canada daily. I've been tracking the # of listings removed week over week (VINs which are not reposted elsewhere online to infer sales and weed out trades) for the last 90 days. Here is what I am seeing.

Hi @Morganpaige! We both work at Foureyes - David is the inventor and CEO. The data has been refreshed this week as well. If you have any other questions, just let us know. https://lps.foureyes.io/auto-sales-during-covid-19
