Fastest and Slowest-Selling Cars: What You Need to Know
Buying a car can feel complicated because of shifting inventory and price changes. Knowing about Market Day Supply (MDS) can really change how you approach buying a car.
MDS is a way to measure how quickly a car model sells. It shows how many days it would take to sell all available cars of a specific model, based on current sales, assuming no new cars arrive. A high MDS means there are lots of cars available, possibly giving buyers a better chance to negotiate. A low MDS suggests it’s a seller’s market, making negotiation harder.
In February 2025, these are the cars with the most and least inventory. Read on to see how this can impact your buying decisions.
