Also in regards to the average cost, it actually is significant as the change in cost has substantially increased compared to previous records despite the pandemic. The 2019 record average price was $34k and 2018 was only a difference of less than $500. However, the change for 2019 to 2020 was $6,000, a large growth in a complicated year.
The reason is possibly this.

All that article shows is that Americans are choosing to buy vehicles that are on "average" 40K
It doesn't mean cars on average are costing that much and people "need to prepare to spend 40k" as the article states.
Your quote from Motor1 is accurate would explain things. But USA Today's article is utter shit journalism |
Its USA Today, gotta expect the clickbait headline. That's modern news sadly. I don't see too much issue with the actual contents of the article though.
