Who are the buyers, what motivates a purchase, and what are they buying?LITTLE ROCK, Ark.–(Business Wire)–U.S. automakers faced with persistent slow sales and make-do consumer attitudesneed to know all they can about the consumers most likely to “buy now.” Thatinsight – including where these prospects live and how best to approach them -is available in the latest Automotive Consumer Dynamics study released today byAcxiom® Corporation (Nasdaq: ACXM). “The consumer is definitely in the driver`s seat in every aspect of the shoppingand buying process,” said Tim Longnecker, Acxiom`s automotive industryexecutive.

“Consumers are being offered a multitude of incentives, from pricediscounts to selective financing and special close-out offers. But they`re slowto respond without heavy incentives and deep discounts, especially whenpurchasing a new vehicle.” The latest issue of Automotive Consumer Dynamics (ACD) reveals key insights onthe five “buy now” groups identified in Acxiom`s January 2009 study and what ismotivating them to buy. Among the insights:* “Used” is giving “new” a run for the money – six of the 10 consumer groups nowhave a greater interest in used vehicles, compared with only two groups withincreased interest in new vehicles. * “Buy now” consumers are often ready to take action – so marketers need toadjust messaging to reflect the affordability of new models compared to usedvehicles many consumers are now considering. * Consumers want higher fuel efficiency, which has remained a constant “buy”indicator over the past 12 months regardless of fuel prices.

* Brand loyalty lives – whether considering new or used, consumers have theirfavorites, and savvy marketers will develop their strategies based onbrand-affinity indices. * Reinvigorated incentives can capture the “buy now” consumer`s attention – thesame old incentives aren`t enough to motivate consumers.Regardless of the economy, the top three purchase motivators are based on needsversus wants. Of the top three purchase motivators, high mileage was the onlyfactor that increased in importance since January 2007.* High mileage on existing vehicle * Better gas mileage * Incentives/financing deals too good to pass up”The findings revealed in the latest ACD study provide marketers with a tool todefine the `buy now` consumer. Acxiom`s strength in consumer insights createsopportunities for dealers and manufacturers in this extremely toughenvironment,” said Longnecker. “Creating highly targeted messaging thatresonates with consumers and prompts a purchase will deliver greater return onmarketing dollars spent.” Automotive Consumer Dynamics is the industry`s first comprehensive,consumer-centric view of the U.S automotive market.
