U.S. Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - 2016 Year End
But they all sold far more often in 2015 than in 2016. From the discontinued Chrysler 200, Dodge Dart, and Chrysler Town & Country to the increasingly inactive Ford Fiesta and Chevrolet Sonic through to the new Hyundai Elantra and the award-winning Mazda 6, sales of these 20 vehicles are plunging.
Of course, this is GoodCarBadCar.net, so there are other lists featuring the 20 lowest-volume vehicles sold in 2016 plus the 20 fastest-declining vehicles regardless of quantity.
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. Mobile users can now thumb across each table for full-width access. Pertinent links are clickable at the bottom of this post, but you can also find related links at the Best Sellers page.
