SOUTHFIELD, Mich., Aug. 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --听Industry brand loyalty rates declined slightly in the first half of 2025 following last year's rebound, according to a new S&P Global Mobility analysis of new vehicle registration data through June.

The industry's brand loyalty rate through June stood at 51.1%, down 1.4 percentage points (PPs) from the same period in 2024. The decrease marks a reversal from 2024's year-over-year gain, showing continued volatility in loyalty trends as the market continues to stabilize post-pandemic.

Both mainstream and luxury brands contributed to the decline as more than half of all brands tracked experienced year-over-year loyalty declines of one percentage point or more. Competition from conquests and evolving inventory dynamics reshaped consumer decision-making resulting in a higher rate of defections.

"The loyalty rate shift this year reflects the balance between a steady return-to-market volume and strong competition among brands," said Vince Palomarez, Associate Director, Loyalty Product Management, S&P Global Mobility. "Households are returning to market, but many are open to cross-shopping in ways we didn't see during the height of pre-pandemic loyalty."

Conquest Trends

While industry loyalty slipped, conquest volume rose in the first half of 2025. Conquest activity increased 7.6% among mainstream brands and 6.2% among luxury brands compared with the same period in 2024.

"Conquest opportunities are rebounding, particularly for luxury," said Tom Libby, Loyalty Solutions and Industry Analysis Associate Director, S&P Global Mobility. "As loyalty softened, brands that executed competitive conquest strategies were able to capture households more effectively."

Return-to-Market Dynamics

The number of households returning to market rose 4.2% year-over-year in the first half of 2025, representing the third consecutive year of improvement. While this growth provided a larger base of potential loyalists, it also created more opportunities for defections as brands competed aggressively for returning customers.

Additional mid-year highlights for 2025:

• General Motors led all multi-brand manufacturers with a loyalty rate of 68.1%.
• Ford topped all brands at 58.9% loyalty.
• Mini currently leads the industry in loyalty growth, improving its loyalty rate by +4.6 PPs year over year.
• The Chevrolet Equinox ranked as the model loyalty leader at 42.7%.
