# Analyst: Car prices are rising again, but tariffs have little impact on core goods other than automobiles

> Analysts pointed out that car prices have risen again, with new cars increasing by 0.3% and used cars and trucks rising by 1.0%. The maintenance and repair costs of motor vehicles increased by 2.4%, but car insurance prices remained unchanged. Core commodity prices rose by 0.13% in August, the lowest since March, with tariffs having little impact on core commodities. This indicator was 0.55% and 0.22% in June and July, respectively, showing a deceleration trend for two consecutive months

Institutional analysts indicate that automotive costs seem to be rising again, with new cars increasing by 0.3% and used cars and trucks rising by 1.0%. However, the real headache is that the maintenance and repair costs for motor vehicles have increased by 2.4%. Fortunately, car insurance prices remained flat for the month. Core commodity prices, excluding new and used cars, rose by 0.13% in August, the lowest level since March. It is evident that tariffs have not had a significant impact at this point in time. The highest increase for this indicator occurred in June, at 0.55%. In July, it was 0.22%, meaning that this indicator has now slowed down for two consecutive months
