The Honda Civic will end 2016 as Canada’s best-selling car.
2016 will be the 19th consecutive year of sales leadership in the passenger car sector for Honda’s most popular car. Already, in ten months, Honda Canada has sold 56,783 new Civics this year, almost certainly more sales than the Civic’s passenger car rivals will manage in the whole calendar year. This grants the Civic a victory even if Honda had to stop selling Civics today.
