Estados Unidos Used Car Prices MoM

The US Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index jumped 2.4% month-over-month in January 2026, the most since April last year, compared to a 0.1% gain in the previous month. EV prices increased 0.4% from December and Non-EV went up 2.2%. “We had planned for a stronger January from a pricing perspective, but wholesale values moved even faster than we expected on the back of strong retail demand, driving the MUVVI to its highest reading since September 2023. With tax refund season officially starting last week, we are expecting that more consumers will be getting refunds – and that the size of those refunds will hit a new record. Those factors should help consumers punch the ticket on some big-ticket purchases”, according to Jeremy Robb, Chief Economist, Cox Automotive. Year-on-year, used car prices also increased 2.4%, led by the luxury segment (1.6%) and non-electric vehicles (2.2%), while compact cars posted a 0.2% decline. Prices for EVs increased 0.8%.
