Welcome

The profit margins for vehicles are quite slim and can vary depending on the specific model and year. Take, for instance, the 2021 Ford Mustang with a listed price of $27,122 - it costs Ford around $25,000 to produce. This cost can fluctuate based on various expenses such as raw materials and parts, which make up approximately 57% of the total price. Additionally, there are expenses for research and development for each new model year, even for well-established products like the Mustang, constituting around 16% of the vehicle cost. Other costs to consider include labor, advertising, sales tax, depreciation, logistics, overhead, and dealer markups.
