Automobile factories interrupted production during the coronavirus process. Therefore, there were problems in new car supply. The demand for new car increased as the loan interest rates decreased. Stating that in 2020, automobile manufacturers have experienced transportation problems in shipping, especially under the influence of coronavirus, Automotive Engineer Lect. Mahmut Nedim Tansu (MSc) from Istanbul Gelisim University said: “Production troubles prevent new car arrival to Turkey. Therefore, vehicles bought by used car sellers before or beginning of 2020 have been launched. When those who want to buy new car go to the distributors, a forward date is given for the sale. The customer leans to the used car sellers because s/he does not want to wait and the seller do the selling. Normally, prices should be lower in the used car market than new ones. When the customer cannot find a new car at the distributor, s/he turns to the dealers, they sell the cars more than the sales figure at the distributor. They say to the customer that they cannot supply the car and that prices will increase further. The customer buys the car eventually because there is no car at the distributor.”
