Inventory piles up on dealer lots when sticker prices outrun demand, and the gap shows in days of supply. CarEdge and MoneyLion rankings single out luxury SUVs, sedans, electric crossovers and muscle cars that sit far longer than average. Here are twelve new models that dealers are struggling to move.
1. Mercedes-Benz GLB: Slowest Of The Compact Luxury Crowd
CarEdge’s October 1 ranking puts the 2025-2026 GLB at 419 days of supply, the second-slowest seller in America. That figure divides on-lot inventory by the trailing 45-day sales rate, so it signals how long the current stock would take to clear.
A pile that deep gives buyers real leverage. Dealers carrying more than a year of GLBs have strong reasons to discount, add incentives or trim financing rates, and shoppers who compare several stores can often negotiate well below sticker.
2. Dodge Charger: Muscle Car Meets A Crowded Lot
CarEdge’s supply rankings show the 2025-2027 Charger sitting at 245 days of market supply, with only 1,587 sold during the 45-day measuring window. Sales at that pace leave a large share of the inventory waiting for buyers.
For shoppers, that stockpile means dealers face rising carrying costs. Patient buyers can ask for markdowns or manufacturer rebates, though the best deals tend to vanish once the oldest units clear and allocation tightens.
3. Jeep Grand Wagoneer: Three-Row Luxury Sitting Still
October CarEdge rankings list the 2026 Grand Wagoneer at 233 days of supply. Full-size luxury SUVs with premium pricing move slowly when buyers balk at the monthly payment and fuel costs.
Owners of such vehicles should note that heavy lot inventory tends to push transaction prices down and can pressure resale values. Buyers able to afford the size and price gain bargaining power, particularly on remaining model-year stock. Remaining 2026 units are the likeliest to carry year-end markdowns.
4. Porsche Cayenne Coupe: Sloped Roof, Slow Sales
CarEdge’s slowest-seller list shows the 2026-2027 Cayenne Coupe holding 263 days of supply on dealer lots. The swoopy fastback body carries a price premium over the standard Cayenne, which narrows the pool of takers.
At roughly nine months of inventory, dealers have incentive to negotiate, even on a Porsche. Buyers chasing the coupe styling can probe for dealer discount or ask about options packages included at no extra charge. Final-year pricing on leftover stock can also soften as the calendar turns.
5. Jeep Gladiator: Strong Sales, Stubborn Stock
CarEdge’s slowest-selling guide lists the 2025-2027 Gladiator at 200 days of supply even though 3,550 were sold in 45 days. The explanation is volume: dealers received far more trucks than that brisk pace can absorb.
The pattern is a reminder that a popular nameplate is not necessarily a scarce one. Shoppers who dismiss the Gladiator as always in demand may find surprisingly flexible pricing, especially on trims that have lingered.
6. Jeep Compass: Healthy Sales, Heavy Inventory
CarEdge’s October guide gives the 2026 Compass 190 days of supply despite 4,422 sales in 45 days. The compact crossover is one of the better-selling Jeeps, yet inventory still outruns demand by a wide margin.
That gap suggests room to negotiate on a model that is otherwise doing respectable business. Buyers can use the supply figure as a talking point, comparing out-the-door quotes across several dealers before committing. Competing compact crossovers often add incentives that put further pressure on pricing.
7. Mercedes-Benz CLA: New Generation, Slow Start
CarEdge’s slowest-seller data shows the 2026-2027 CLA at 182 days of market supply. A redesigned entry-level sedan that introduces electric power to the lineup faces buyers still wary of its price and charging needs.
A new generation sitting on lots for about six months can mean incentives arrive early. Shoppers interested in the electric variant can look at lease deals, which frequently improve when manufacturers want to clear volume. Lease specials on new-generation models often appear within months of launch.
8. Audi A8: Flagship Sedan, Few Takers
CarEdge’s ranking puts the 2026-2027 A8 at 227 days of supply. Large luxury sedans have lost ground to SUVs, and a flagship priced into six figures attracts a small audience.
Depreciation on such cars can be steep, so the lot glut works in favor of shoppers who plan to keep the car for years. Buying near the bottom of the price curve spares the first owner the heaviest value loss.
9. Kia EV6: Electric Crossover, Long Wait
CarEdge’s June 24 data gave the EV6 449 days of market supply at an average price of $46,296. Few shoppers were rushing in, which left the stylish electric crossover collecting dust at dealerships.
Those numbers dated from June, so the current picture may differ. Even so, long supply on an electric vehicle often means discounting and generous leases, and buyers can compare those offers against remaining federal and state incentives.
10. Volkswagen ID.4: Value EV Without Urgency
MoneyLion’s slowest-seller roundup reports 439 days of supply for the ID.4 in June, at an average price of $46,531. The compact electric SUV was priced near mainstream rivals but still struggled to find buyers.
Slow movement tends to bring rebates and dealer markdowns, so shoppers considering the ID.4 may find leverage. Because the figure is a June snapshot, checking current inventory in a local area gives a better read. Dealer-installed extras and fees deserve scrutiny before any price is agreed.
11. Bentley Continental GT: Six-Figure Coupe, Year-Plus Supply
MoneyLion’s list shows the Continental GT with 463 days of supply at an average price of $358,551. At that price point, the buyer pool is small, and each unsold car ties up serious dealer capital.
Wealthy shoppers rarely haggle, but a car sitting for over a year gives dealers a reason to deal. Custom-order buyers should still expect waits, while those willing to take a stocked configuration may save. Resale values for exotic coupes still hinge on mileage and specification.
12. Aston Martin DBX: Luxury SUV, Longest Wait
MoneyLion’s ranking gives the DBX the longest wait of the group, 493 days of supply at an average $321,273. The British brand’s SUV is its volume model, so a glut there stands out.
A supply of more than 16 months suggests dealers may accept offers below asking. Buyers should still weigh steep depreciation on ultra-luxury SUVs, since early discounts do not guarantee strong resale value. Dealer-to-dealer transfers may widen the search for the best price.
