The automotive landscape in the United States<\/a> is shifting gears, and it’s not just about the cars themselves—it’s what’s under the hood. Recent data unveils an interesting trend: the ascendancy of three-cylinder engines, while the reign of the six- and eight-cylinder powerhouses is facing a slowdown.<\/p>\n

Prior to 2019, the share of new car sales in the U.S. for vehicles with three-cylinder engines was essentially zero. However, the penetration of three-pots has increased every quarter since Q1 2019, climbing to 5.6% at the end of Q2 2023 and approaching 6.2% through part of Q3. According to the associate director for loyalty solutions and industry analysis at S&P Global Mobility, Tom Libby, this is because of rising demand for ‘subcompact-plus’ utility vehicles like the Buick Encore<\/a> GX, Ford Bronco Sport, and Chevrolet Trailblazer<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Indeed, data published by S&P Global Mobility<\/a><\/em> has found that personal registrations for new subcompact-plus vehicles in the U.S. reached 589,026 through July compared to 123,033 registrations for new subcompact vehicles. On average, consumers looking to get into a subcompact-plus vehicle will have monthly payments averaging around $462, a $40 increase from average subcompact monthly payments.<\/p>\n
