Understanding the terms

Plain-language definitions for the market measures used in this report — and why each one matters when you're shopping.

Market temperature
Compares the vehicle supply available in the state with how quickly vehicles have been leaving that market, expressed as an estimated days of supply — lower means supply is tighter relative to that pace. It is not a measure of how long individual listings have been listed, and it is shown only where our market-data provider has enough state-level supply and sales history to support it.
Buyer leverage
How much negotiating power you have right now, based on inventory, selling speed, and price movement. Stronger leverage means more room to negotiate.
Average days on market
The average number of days the currently listed, unsold vehicles have been on the market. Listings that sit longer can mean more room to negotiate.
Days of supply
An estimate from our market-data provider of how long the vehicle supply available in this state would last at the pace vehicles have recently been leaving that market. It is the provider's own calculation, not a division of the listing and sales counts shown on this page. Higher days of supply usually means more choice and more negotiating room.
Sell-through
The share of available inventory that sells in a given period. Higher sell-through means cars are moving quickly.
Dealer sample
Figures reflect new-vehicle listings observed in our licensed dealer-listings sample. They may not represent every vehicle for sale in the state; figures below our threshold are withheld, not estimated.
Observed listings
The number of distinct new vehicles observed in our dealer-listings sample at the latest daily snapshot — not a count of every vehicle for sale in the state.
Observed
A measured value taken from observed listings or sales — not modeled.
Estimated
A modeled value. It is clearly labeled and never presented as a measured figure.
Methodology

Where these numbers come from

Figures on this report are computed from a licensed multi-dealer listings and sales feed for the Kia Carnival (new vehicles only), reduced to Minnesota. Two clocks apply: listing figures come from the 204 new listings observed in our dealer sample at the latest daily snapshot (Nov 8, 2026); sold-price and sales-volume figures cover the prior completed calendar month (October 2026) and are kept separate from asking prices. The dealer sample may not represent every vehicle for sale in the state. Values below our reporting threshold are withheld — never estimated — and every figure is labeled Observed or Estimated. Trend history reflects the feed's retained months and can lag the reporting period.

Market temperature compares the Kia Carnival supply available in the state with how quickly vehicles have been leaving that market, expressed as an estimated days of supply — lower means supply is tighter relative to that pace. The days-of-supply figure is calculated by our market-data provider. It is not a measure of how long individual listings have been listed, and it is published only where the provider has enough state-level supply and sales history to support it.
