As of January 1, 2022, there were 73 more dealerships (rooftops) in the country compared to the same date in 2021 (18,230 this year compared to 18,157 last year); the number of franchises \u2013 brands a dealership sells \u2013 decreased slightly from 31,959 to 31,646 during the same period.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the U.S. dealership footprint\u2019s slight year-over-year growth, average throughput \u2013 the number of vehicles a dealership sells \u2013 also rose (19 units) to a total of 826 units per store, a level similar to 2012. And according to the National Automobile Dealers Association, the average U.S. dealership reported a net pretax profit of $3.38 million through October 2021 \u2013 a number that\u2019s more than twice what the average store tallied in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s no doubt 2021 was a lucrative year for franchise dealerships in the U.S., but now more than ever, it\u2019s critical that automotive manufacturers leverage the power of science in informing their network planning strategies,\u201d said Mitch Phillips, global director of data, Urban Science. \u201cAs the chip shortage resolves and additional inventory levels the playing field for consumers in purchase negotiations, a right-sized dealership network \u2013 not a reliance on short-term, pandemic-driven consumer willingness to pay more \u2013 will continue to be the underpinning of sustainable success now and in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to the Urban Science FAR, 85% of core based statistical areas (CBSAs) in the U.S. remained stable and did not experience net changes related to their respective dealership counts. The most significant state-level changes were all net <em>increases<\/em> with California (+28), Texas (+12) and New York (+10) accounting for the majority of the U.S. market\u2019s 73 new (net) stores.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>\u5173\u4e8e\u4f18\u8d5b\u601d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Urban Science is a leading automotive consultancy and technology firm that serves automotive original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and dealers, and the advertising technology companies that support them, around the world.
