Our Take On The Top 20 Worst-Selling Vehicle Sales Numbers

The Ford F-Series and Ram pickup make an appearance in the percentage drop above 250 sales chart for January in Canada, with both seeing sales tumble by more that 16% year-on-year.

At the other end of the percentage drop chart sits the Dodge Journey, sales of which fell by almost 75% on last January – by far the greatest percentage drop of any model in the Canadian market in January without falling below sales volume of 250 units.

Fiat’s now ancient 500 and related 500X saw sales plummet over 90%, while the MX-5 Miata – hardly a winter runaround – also saw a steep decline in sales to last January.

Among the six nameplates to sell just a solitary unit in Canada in January are low-volume sports cars like the Dodge Viper (itself also no longer in production) but a couple of higher-volume vehicles make the cut too. The Dodge Dart’s sales have fallen considerably since peaking in Canada in 2013, while the Buick Verano had its 2017 model year cut short as sales fell and is on its way out, with the Encore SUV now filling the hole in Buick’s lineup the Verano leaves.
