U.S. Vehicle Sales By Model - February 2017 YTD
Among volume vehicles, the Jeep Compass's 69% plunge made the oft-derided first-gen Compass America's worst-selling vehicle in February 2017. The next-worst-selling vehicle in America was the Jeep Patriot, the Compass twin that won't be replaced in concert with the Compass. Globally, the Compass was traditionally the favoured member of the duo, though the story was ifferent in Jeep's home market.
Two minivans, two midsize cars, and four Nissans also made their presence known among America's most rapidly declining new vehicles in February. Setting aside the 2500-sale minimum for GCBC's worst seller list, discontinued models headlined the list of America's 20 worst-selling vehicles regardless of volume. Cancelled models grabbed the ten top spots. GCBC has also issued a list of the 20 lowest-volume vehicles in February.
