Mobility Global (MBGL) subsidiary CARFAX Canada identified 393,200 vehicles with past accidents in reports run during the first half of 2026. The analysis covers vehicle history reports run from January 1 to June 30, 2026, rather than accidents necessarily occurring during that period. Associated accidents cost vehicle owners and insurers around $5.4 billion. The vehicle count represents almost 58% of the total found with previous accidents in 2025.
CARFAX Canada also identified 23,700 weather-damaged vehicles across Canada. Alberta led weather-related claims with over $150 million in damages, 97% related to hail. Ontario followed with nearly $23 million, while Quebec recorded $1 million in weather-related repairs. CARFAX Canada recommends checking vehicle history, taking a test drive and obtaining a licensed mechanic’s inspection before buying.
Mobility Global (MBGL) forecasts U.S. light-vehicle sales will remain below pre-pandemic levels through the end of the decade.
It expects 16.1 million sales in 2026 and 16.4 million by decade-end, versus roughly 17 million annually before the pandemic. The company cites affordability as the main constraint. It forecasts North American full-hybrid assembly above 3 million units and battery-electric assembly above 1 million in 2027. Mobility Global also launched FAST, a forecasting and simulation tool.
CARFAX Canada (part of Mobility Global, MBGL) launched its new Sourcing inventory acquisition tool for Canadian dealers on September 21, 2026. The tool is intended to address ongoing used-vehicle supply constraints that leave dealers spending significant time deciding what to buy, at what price, and from which channels.
The new Sourcing tool uses CARFAX Canada’s data and insights to let dealers analyze high volumes of potential acquisitions from multiple sources in minutes. Dealers can upload and analyze VINs, then filter them by vehicle characteristics and profitability attributes to shortlist the best fits for their lots. The company says this helps dealers broaden their view beyond traditional channels such as wholesale, service-lane opportunities, and customer trade-ins, while reducing time spent evaluating individual vehicles.
