(1) As discussed in Note 1, “Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” due to the adoption of ASC 842, “Leases,” effective January 1, 2019, previously existing capital lease assets have been reclassified from property and equipment, net to financing - right-of- use assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019.
(2) Classified in other current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Interest capitalized in conjunction with construction projects and software development was approximately $1.6 million, $1.5 million and $2.2 million for 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As of December 31, 2019, commitments for facility construction projects totaled approximately $18.0 million.
During 2019, 2018 and 2017, property and equipment impairment charges were recorded as noted in the following table:
Franchised Dealerships SegmentEchoPark SegmentConsolidated
Year Ended December 31,(In thousands)
2019$1,101  $19,667  $20,768  
2018$25,832  $1,582  $27,414  
2017$3,890  $1,004  $4,894  
Impairment charges were due to the fair value adjustments of long-lived assets held for sale related to real estate at former EchoPark locations, the abandonment of certain internally developed software applications, the abandonment and disposal of dealership equipment or our estimate that based on historical and projected operating losses for certain dealerships, these dealerships would not be able to recover recorded property and equipment asset balances.
