The proportion of available cars sold for less than $20,000 in 2010 dollars (about $30,000 in 2025 dollars) is lower than it has been in ages. In 2010, there were 243 vehicle models available that cost more than $20,000, and 25 models sold for under $20,000. As of 2025, there are now 328 vehicle models available that cost more than the inflation-adjusted $20,000 figure, and only 20 models below that number. Many of those now-discontinued car lines had lower profit margins.
