The American service CarEdge published its July Market Day Supply (MDS) rating — an indicator reflecting how many days the current stock of cars will last at existing sales rates. The higher the value, the greater the pressure on dealers and the higher the probability of discounts, preferential lending, and other special offers.

The unexpected leader of the rating was the 2026 model year Dodge Charger. The stock of this model reached 385 days: there are 10,796 cars in stock, while only 1,261 were sold in the last 45 days. This is the highest figure among mass-market models in the American market.

Second place was taken by the Volkswagen ID.4 with a 349-day supply. The top ten also included the two-door Jeep Wrangler (230 days), Jeep Gladiator (222 days), Buick Envision (227 days), as well as several premium brand models, including the Mercedes-Benz EQS, Porsche Taycan, Audi SQ7, Alfa Romeo Giulia, Alfa Romeo Stelvio, and Maserati Grecale.

Experts emphasize that a high MDS indicator does not mean low car quality. More often, it indicates that production volumes outpace current demand or buyer preferences have changed. For customers, such a situation usually means more opportunities for bargaining and receiving additional bonuses when purchasing.

Changes are especially noticeable in the Jeep SUV segment, where many models were recently sold with virtually no discounts. Now, high inventory levels may force dealers to actively lower prices to accelerate sales.
