Our Take On The Commercial Van Sales Numbers
A modest fall in commercial van sales of 2.9% follows an 11.1% drop YTD for the segment-leading Ford Transit to close out 2017.
The Transit fuelled last year’s 10% increase to make commercial vans the fastest growing sector back then. 2017 has been less fruitful for it, though it was still the Transit’s second-best year yet after officially going on sale in the USA for the first time in 2014.
After both cross-sections of this market posted strong growth in November, only small / midsize managed a meager 1.49% increase over December 2016, with the Ram ProMaster City, Chevrolet City Express and Mercedes-Benz Metris posting double-figure percentage growth year-on-year to balance out an 11.6% fall for the Ford transit Connect.
GM’s commercial full-size vans, the Savana and Chevrolet Express, both had tough months in December, but clung to year-to-date growth nonetheless.
