Week Ending October 24, 2025 — Key Trends in Canada to US Vehicle Exports Canada to US vehicle exports continue to evolve, and this past week revealed some important trends for Canadian dealers to watch.
📉 Wholesale Values Down 3.3%
Wholesale values across the Signal Technologies platform declined 3.3% over the past four weeks. This aligns with the typical seasonal slowdown leading into the holiday period.
Historically, the final quarter of the year brings softer wholesale prices, while Q1 often rebounds strongly due to tax-season demand and spring retail activity.
For Canadian dealers actively appraising vehicles for export, tracking these market shifts is critical to maintaining profitability.
💡 Accurate Appraisals Drive Profit
Export pricing accuracy directly impacts profit margins. Signal’s dynamic depreciation tool helps dealers stay ahead of market changes by automatically factoring in:
- Current wholesale value trends
- Depreciation curves
- Currency exchange fluctuations
With these real-time insights, dealers can price vehicles confidently and maximize profits when exporting vehicles from Canada to the US.
🚗 Signal’s Sub-Trim Intelligence: A Game-Changer for Canadian Dealers
One of the newest enhancements in the Signal Market Guide is sub-trim intelligence — a data-driven feature that helps dealers understand how trim-level differences affect cross-border vehicle value.
Not all vehicles (or trims) are created equal. Two trucks that appear identical on paper can differ by $10,000–$12,000 depending on equipment packages, technology, and options.
For instance, Ford F-150s make up nearly one-quarter of all units crossing the border through Signal. Within that single model, the value gap between a base XL work truck and a fully equipped XLT Sport can be significant.
Signal’s sub-trim intelligence highlights those value gaps automatically, giving Canadian dealers a precise view of which configurations perform best in the U.S. wholesale market.
