The Q2 2025 Haig Report shows US auto retail industry profits rose 20% YoY, driven by favorable comparisons to last year's CDK outage and a pre-tariff buying surge. Franchise valuations increased for Toyota, Kia, and Hyundai, while Audi's value dropped due to sales declines and inventory imbalances. Dealership buy-sell activity slowed in H1 2025, but is expected to rebound in the second half, with volumes potentially shifting back to 300-400 sales per year.
