Keeping you in the know is important to us, especially when it comes to the latest industry news and consumer trends, and in Q2 2018, we saw some interesting data. We’ll catch you up on the makes and models Cycle Trader consumers were searching for in the second quarter of 2018. Let’s break them down.

In fourth place at 10%, Cruisers are slightly down from last quarter, but we continue to see them rank in the top five searched models.
