Title: U.S. Auto Inventory Over Time
Subtitle: See how the global chip shortage is affecting supply

Overall Summary:
This dashboard uses publicly available data to illustrate how automotive inventory availability is changing. Following shelter-in-place guidelines in March 2020 and a corresponding drop in sales at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, inventory for most brands briefly peaked in April 2020. Since then, resurgent demand and supply chain disruptions have caused a dramatic and sustained decline in both new and used inventory levels. This dataset contains 90% of U.S.-based new franchise auto dealerships. Independent/used-only stores are not included.
