In its latest Blue Book Market Report, one trend that Kelley Blue Book noted about February wholesale price activity was the movement in the values of full-size SUVs from General Motors.

Comparing the four-week period ending Feb. 21 with the one ending Jan. 24,  the average overall change for the segment was a 0.5-percent decrease. However, the change in prices for full-size SUVs in GM’s lineup were modestly higher, for the most part.

GM’s lineup in this segment as well as the declines seen last month in auction price are as follows:  the Chevrolet Tahoe (0.8 percent), GMC Yukon (0.9 percent), Cheverolet Suburban (0.6 percent) and GMC Yukon XL (0.5 percent).

Kelley Blue Book doesn’t think the drops will stop there either.

“With the release of newly redesigned vehicles for model-year 2015, Kelley Blue Book anticipates these values will continue to decline as sales ramp up,” Alec Gutierrez, senior analyst at KBB, explained.

However, these weren’t the only large vehicles to experience a price decline last month.

For instance, values for full-size pickup trucks (overall, GM or otherwise) were down from where they were in January.

This may come as a surprise, since large truck segments showed very strong retention levels throughout 2013.

Much of this strength was due to a spike in home construction, but now the tides have turned.

Crossover Trends

Moving elsewhere, KBB also looked at the price trends in a few crossover sub-segments.

Four-week prices were climbing among compact crossovers (up 0.6 percent in period ending Feb. 21 versus period ending Jan. 24) and midsize crossovers (up 0.5 percent), but values were static for the full-size variety.

Picking out a few compact crossovers that “performed well” and were ahead of the curve, KBB noted the Mazda CX-5 was up 2.4 percent in price, the Hyundai Tucson climbed 2 percent and the GMC Terrain was up 1.7 percent.
