Volkswagen Tiguan Sales Are Up 32% Over The Last Four Months |
Despite a 20% drop in volume and the 39% increase reported by its nearest rival, the Ford Escape held on to its position as the best-selling utility vehicle in Canada in July 2013.
With five months remaining, the Escape is now 5608 sales ahead of the Honda CR-V. A year ago, the Escape was only 3596 sales ahead of the CR-V.
Only in March 2013 did Mazda’s CX-5 climb higher up these rankings. However, Mazda didn’t sell this many CX-5s that month. With 1937 sales in July, Mazda set a Canadian CX-5 sales record. It’s been on sale since February 2012. In July, the CX-5 was worth 28% of Mazda Canada’s volume and 59% of Mazda’s non-3 sales.
Lexus’s RX was the only premium brand utility vehicle to crack this list of the 20 top-selling SUVs and crossovers. The 20th-ranked RX outsold the Acura MDX by 62 units.
Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for any of these models can always be accessed through the dropdown menu at GCBC’s Sales Stats page, and for those not viewing the mobile version of this site, near the top right of this page, as well.
