As Chevrolet prepares to reveal the next-generation, second-generation Traverse at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January 2017, the current Chevrolet Traverse enjoyed a doubling of its Canadian sales volume in November 2016. Sales of the long-in-the-tooth Traverse and its Buick Enclave sibling have been rising all year as GM clears out remaining models.

Already replaced, the GMC Acadia is heading in the opposite direction, a direction that should change as dealers receive more Acadias to sell. Having undergone a real diet, the GMC Acadia is a downsized – some might say, appropriately sized– alternative to the full-size GM Lambda crossovers.![auto sales charts Canada midsize SUV sales chart November 2016](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjfDjaZLWDm53Y_KTJNDdvdnRvwLeCimUu_6Ux2dOa6fCAAezFd7LiE5tFDizjG-iDL8cuf_fU7O5ekGW-cQw0vvX-N6hITRxViwq1zRAvoDOJqU0rnvq3nytr0W-5d95bUMl5WpAwhyA/s200/Canada+midsize+SUV+sales+chart+November+2016.jpg) |

Combined, these three GM entries generated 1725 November sales. Canada's leading individual three-row utility vehicle in November was the Ford Explorer, sales of which rose 5% to 1664 units.
The Dodge Durango, Mazda CX-9, Nissan Pathfinder, and Toyota Highlander all produced meaningful improvements, as well.

Canadian sales of the Mazda CX-9 tripled in October 2016, a year-over-year gain of 200% worth 98 additional sales for one of the newest three-row utility vehicles on the market.

Mazda has already managed to produce 2014 sales of the CX-9, the company's flagship and most expensive new vehicle, through the first ten months of 2016. Only once, way back in the first-generation CX-9's first-ever sales year, 2007, has the admittedly low 2000-unit mark been crested. ![auto sales chart Canada midsize SUV sales chart October 2016](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi32TrRAQXwP6asLVgz1A7eYt3lQ9OCemHc7mot5OQ9OZ8Z6NMUsps9KRGicNFdhWZzHMYrAw_oKUqTVEK8_brFrirO_2yXsf4PJK9e6U5-iVBCPM1qpg2H7qZe_MpUjAbOiBaUmG4V8os/s200/Canada+midsize+SUV+sales+chart+October+2016.jpg) |

But the 2117-unit record set in the nameplate's first year is sure to be broken in 2016, and likely by the end of November.
We reviewed the 2016 Mazda CX-9 back in June, giving credit to Mazda for the CX-9's on-road behaviour, torquey engine, second row seat space, and a hugely attractive exterior design. The CX-9 nevertheless remains an outside-the-box choice for Canadian family SUV buyers who typically veer toward the Ford Explorer and Toyota Highlander.
