The arrival of an all-new luxury SUV is one of the few moments a dealership marketing team gets a built-in audience, free product buzz, and a reason to rebuild every funnel from the ground up. The 2027 Infiniti QX65 is exactly that kind of moment, and how your store handles the next 90 days online…
If your store runs vehicle ads on Facebook or Instagram, there’s a quiet deadline on the calendar that could shut your inventory campaigns down overnight. Meta is retiring the Nielsen DMA targeting system that automotive advertisers have used for years, and the swap to Comscore Markets isn’t optional. Miss the cutoff, and your ads stop…
A product surge this big doesn’t just change showrooms. It rewires how shoppers search, click, and decide. With dozens of fresh nameplates, trims, and powertrains headed to lots between 2026 and 2030, dealer websites built for today’s lineup will start leaking traffic fast unless the content strategy gets a serious rebuild.

Google Analytics 4 gives dealers the tools to track the actions that lead to real revenue, and that shift in measurement is quickly becoming the difference between…
Car shopping rarely starts with a phone call to a dealer. It starts with a Google search, and more often than not, that search has a city name or “near me” attached to it. Local search intent has quietly become one of the most powerful forces in used vehicle marketing, deciding which dealerships get seen…
The way people shop for cars online has shifted dramatically in 2026. Buyers aren’t typing “best SUV” into Google and browsing through listicles anymore.
