The Used Car Prices Year-over-Year (YoY) indicator tracks the price change of pre-owned vehicles compared to the same month in the previous year. It provides a broader perspective on long-term inflation trends and the normalization of the automotive market post-supply shocks. Economists use this data to strip out seasonal noise and assess the underlying strength of consumer demand.
Calculated by comparing the current month's price index for used vehicles to the index value from 12 months prior. It is part of the broader CPI calculation framework.
