if you're new to the channel make sure to hit that subscribe button so you don't miss any future updates now let's jump in number eight Lincoln Navigator first on the list is the Lincoln Navigator which is known for taking its sweet time to sell let's not forget that Ford Lincoln's parent company is navigating a tough time grappling with mounting challenges last redesigned for 2018 the Navigator UPS the ante over its Ford Expedition sibling with more luxury and Showmanship its leather-lined interior 48in panoramic dashboard screen front seats that will actually give you a massage and a
plethora of other features come with a hefty price tag of around 105,000 on average this full-sized SUV is 440 horsepower twin turbo V6 delivers plenty of power but it comes at a cost 16 MP gallon on average it's not exactly what you'd call fuel efficient so expect to see plenty of gas stations in your rear view mirror if you're taking it on a road trip unless you have a large family that can use up all eight seats or want to significantly up your Uber game it's hard to justify buying a Lincoln Navigator especially when there
are less expensive SUVs to choose from with the same amount of space and power just without the massage capable front seats with everything seemingly working against the Navigator it now has a market day supply of 262 meaning it takes on average a staggering 262 days to sell and there's over 8,700 units across the country number seven Hyundai ionic 6 next up is the Hyundai ionic 6 an electric sedan that's been making waves but not necessarily the kind that Hyundai was hoping for with its polarizing design the ionic 6 has sparked plenty of debate some love
its futuristic streamline look While others find it hard to warm up to and at an average price of $46,000 this EV is far from a budget friendly option putting it in a competitive price bracket that includes more spacious SUVs and higher range electric Alternatives beyond the design in price the onic 6 faces a bigger issue consumers are cooling off on EVS altogether particularly sedans which have been steadily losing popularity in a market dominated by SUVs and crossovers as a result the ionic 6 is struggling to find its footing with a market day supply of 263
right now Hyundai dealers in the US have close to 6,000 units in their possession number six Land Rover Discovery sport Winston Churchill said the British are the only people who like to be told how bad things are and that case they're about to get an earful about the Land Rover Discovery sport although now owned by an Indian automaker these vehicles are still primarily manufactured in England the consumer report gave the new model year 30 out of 100 for predicted reliability owners were frustrated from the bad suspension to slow response transmission let's be honest that's pretty
bad for an SUV with an average selling price of $55,000 its underwhelming 2 L 4 cylinder engine delivers lackluster power and acceleration compared to rivals in its class to make matters worse it only manages an average fuel economy of 19 MP gallon for an SUV with a smaller engine that's hardly impressive so basically Land Rover Discovery sport is not much more than a pretty f face and a brand name and it's no surprise that market day supply for This SUV is 269 days number five Audi Q8 the only real sacrifice the 20124 Audi Q8 requires
comes by way of the pocketbook Audi's rang topping Coupe like luxury SUV is barely different from the Q7 it derived from the third row gets cast aside in favor of a 5- seat layout with a more sharply Rak rear end and the result barely moves the needle aside from some very small differences in packaging and suspension tuning these fraternal twins offer largely the same Driving Experience while the Q8 offers a bit more style and a sleeker more compact look buyers seem unconvinced especially with its average selling price of $85,000 yes Q8 problem is within its
own lineup for at least $15,000 less potential buyers can opt for the Q7 which offers better interior space fuel economy and the added utility of a third row for seats it's no surprise that Q8 models are lingering on dealer Lots while the q7s roll out according to car Edge data the Q8 currently has a market day supply of 270 number four Fiat 500e at number four we we have the Fiat 500e a tiny EV that's full of Italian charm and unfortunately it's not enough to move off the shelves sure it's stylish and perfect for zipping
around town but then you get to its range 141 miles seriously in a market where EVS are offering twice that add a cramped interior and a $34,500 price tag and a ride that's anything but refined and it's easy to see why this one is struggling the 500e size makes it great for squeezing into tight spaces but that's about where the appeal ends buyers are gravitating towards competitors that offer more range better comfort and greater practicality for the same or even less money stellantis the parrot company of Fiat is in a major crisis right now as
sales are freef falling and the 500e are collecting dust at dealer Lots with 288 days of market supply before we move on to the next vehicle if you're enjoying this video so far don't forget to hit the like button number three Jeep Grand Wagoner coming in at number three is another brand owned by stellantis the Jeep brand has never been known for quality and is currently suffering as a whole regardless of the model add that to an already high price point and it may make sense why the grand wagon ear is not selling at all
this full-size SUV has an average selling price of jaw-dropping $112,500 while the grand Wagoner aims to compete in the high-end SUV segment with luxury features and massive size it's up against stiff competition from brands with stronger reputations for quality and reliability buyers looking to spend over 100 Grand have plenty of other options many of which offer better refinement dependability and value the result the grand Wagoner is sitting on dealer Lots with a market day supply of 288 at this point stellantis and Jeep need a major overhaul to save the brand from going bankrupt number two
BMW 5 series the BMW 5 series a luxury sedan that seems to be struggling to find its audience once celebrated for its sharp sporty handling the latest 5 Series has softened losing some of the or sedan magic that made earlier Generations so iconic combine that with its polarizing design and the ever growing dominance of SUVs and it's no surprise that buyers are turning elsewhere with an average selling price of $66,000 the Five series isn't cheap and buyers in this price range are increasingly opting for luxury SUVs that offer more space and versatility even loyal BMW
fans seem to be gravitating toward the brand Brand's popular X Series SUVs leaving the Five series to collect dust on dealership Lots as per car Edge there are 3,276 units of the 5 series currently sitting unsold with a market day supply of 305 while BMW's Flagship sedan still has plenty of prestige it's clear that the market is Shifting and the Five series is having a hard time keeping up number one Nissan Z if one automaker is currently operating as a shell of its former self it would be the once formidable Japanese automaker Nissan the company
is in deep trouble grappling with a shrinking market share internal restructuring and Leadership turmoil there are many Nissan models starting to idle at the dealer but coming in at number one at this time is the Nissan Z a car that had everything going for it at least at first with its sporty design and a nostalgic nod to the iconic Z lineage there was plenty of hype when it launched but somewhere along the way Nissan dropped the ball production delays made it hard for buyers to actually get their hands on one and by the time availability
improved it seemed like everyone had already moved on sure it looks cool but the $55,000 average selling price doesn't help its case for that kind of money buyers have plenty of other sport cars to choose from many offer better bang for their Buck now with over 2,000 units sitting on dealer lots and a market supply of 350 days that's a wrap I hope this video entertained enlightened and educated you if it did please give it a thumbs up and comment below with the models you've noticed idling at your local car dealerships we'll see you soon
