July 4 sparks 0% deals, Q2 sales robust 

Second-quarter sales of new autos were mixed following a spike in March and April ahead of tariffs taking effect, while incentives were robust during the Independence Day holiday weekend.

Most major manufacturers saw a rise in vehicle sales in Q2, with General Motors and Hyundai Motor America reporting the best first half of the year in terms of sales. June, however, marked a slowdown in sales for some automakers.

The July 4 holiday brought a mix of 0% financing and cash back offers, with incentive spend varied by brand.

Meanwhile, credit unions are putting excess lending capacity to work, evidenced by an uptick in application volume at fintech Origence, which provides technology and financing capabilities for credit unions. While application volume rose year to date through June, the fintech’s ratio of funded loans to applications fell due to higher loan-to-value ratios in the market as consumers lean on longer-term loans to manage monthly payments.

Alloya Corporate Federal Credit Union issued its first asset-backed securitization deal on July 1, a $150 million transaction backed by prime auto loans issued by Blaze Credit Union, Consumers Credit Union and Interra Credit Union.

In this episode of the “Weekly Wrap,” Auto Finance News Editor Amanda Harris, Senior Associate Editor Truth Headlam and Associate Editor Aidan Bush discuss the latest updates on sales, incentives, funding and capital markets for the week ended July 4.
