| The Toyota Tacoma Is Canada’s Favourite Small/Midsize Truck |
Following an almost set-in-stone trend, Canadian sales of pickup trucks improved in December 2013. Compared with the equivalent prior year period, truck volume was up 10% last month, an increase of nearly 2000 units.
In December, as always, the Ford F-Series was Canada’s top-selling truck. By outselling the Ram P/U by 2050 units, the F-Series expanded its year-to-date lead to 42,077 units. Over the course of twelve months in 2012, the F-Series outsold the next-best-selling Ram by 37,103 units.
In what turned out to be a record year for the Canadian auto industry, trucks were a key component, an increasingly vital force. 18.1% of the new vehicles sold in Canada in 2013 were pickup trucks, up from 17.3% in 2012.
The gains surely weren’t accomplished by small and midsize trucks. Full-size trucks, led by the F-Series, accounted for 95.1% of the overall truck market, up from 92.6% in 2012.
