U.S. Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - January 2017
Indeed, as automakers reported their January 2017 sales throughout the day, it was obvious that harsh declines at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles and Toyota Motor Corp. – both of which fell 11% – would not be overcome by more modest upticks at Honda, Nissan, and Subaru.
America's fastest-growing auto brand in January was once again Jaguar, just as it was in 2016. Jaguar volume more than doubled to 2939 units. Among volume brands, Volkswagen's 17% uptick – relative to dreadful results in January 2016 – was best. Audi, Mazda, Lincoln, and Infiniti reported double-digit percentage increases.
Four FCA brands – Chrysler, Dodge, Fiat, and Jeep – were among the 16 brands to report declining volume in January 2017. Chrysler's 39% drop was worst of the bunch.

January accounts for 8.5% of the calendar, you'll recall. But this is not the most consequential month. In fact, at no point in 2017 will sales likely be this low, as January typically accounts for 6.5% of a given year's new vehicle sales volume.
