The Fastest Sellers: Median Days on Market
Analyzing turnover rates, we find a paradox: Honda leads in market speed, while Toyota — the volume leader — has the slowest moving inventory.
This is price-driven: Honda’s median price (~$4,800) is nearly half of Toyota’s (~$7,800). Lower prices attract more buyers. Conversely, Toyota’s massive supply (18,000+ listings) saturates the market.
