Canada Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - 2016 Year End
Canadian auto sales rose to record high levels in 2016, but December volume was down 2%, the fifth decline in the last six months.
GCBC has also compiled lists of the outright 20 lowest-volume vehicles on sale in Canada in December 2016, a list chock full of high-priced machinery such as the Bentley Flying Spur and defunct nameplates such as the Lincoln MKS and Hyundai Genesis.
Furthermore, the list of Canada's 20 fastest-declining new vehicles – regardless of the volume levels achieved in December – includes only 12 active nameplates.
You can always select a make and model at GCBC's Sales Stats page to find historical monthly and yearly sales figures from both Canada and the United States. Pertinent links are clickable at the bottom of this post, but you can also find related links at the Best Sellers page. Mobile users can now thumb across the tables for full-width access.
