TrueCar’s Price Flex Score4The TrueCar Price Flex Score measures the elasticity of transaction price by model. The Price Flex Score calculation dynamically incorporates the factors that affect price variance including the model’s transaction price range, current inventory and sales data. A vehicle experiencing extremely low inventory and a small range of transcation prices will have a low Price Flex Score. Don’t expect much of a discount from the TrueCar average transaction price on a vehicle with a low Price Flex Score. If a vehicle has a high Price Flex Score, however, you have the potential to strike a deal significantly below (or above, if you’re not careful!) the TrueCar average transaction price.
Performance Scorecards2The TrueCar Scorecard measures the overall performance of a brand or manufacturer based on pricing, sales, incentives, customer loyalty, market share, and inventory turn data.
Greatest Discounts7Featuring the highest discounts on 2010 and 2011 models. Luxury sport cars, vans, luxury cars, and midsize cars offer the greatest discounts at an average below MSRP of about 7%. Model year 2010 makes including Volkswagen, Saab, Volvo, and Chevrolet offer the biggest discounts. The top 2011 makes with the biggest discounts are Nissan, Mercedes-Benz, Dodge, and Chevrolet. The industry discount is 5.6%

Model Year Share shows the percentage share of 2010 model year vehicles sold within the last month versus vehicles of any other model year sold. Generally, the higher the model year share value, the higher the discount a consumer can expect to receive on that given model. It also reflects that dealers are more likely to cut deals on a 2010 model in order to make room for a 2011. At this time of year, many brand’s model year mix are predominantly comprised of 2011’s. The makes with the lowest percentage of 2010 model year share are BMW, Jaguar, and Chevrolet.
2009 Vehicles make up 0.1% of all sales. 2010 vehicles make up 15.3% of total sales while the 2011’s make up 84.5% of total sales.
