Top 30 Best-Selling Vehicles In America – December 2013

The 29th-Ranked Highlander Was One Of Six Toyota MoCo Products Among America’s 30 Best-Selling Autos In December

Owning 5.5% of the U.S. auto market in December 2013, the Ford F-Series topped 70,000 units for the third time this year and 60,000 units for the eighth consecutive month. 

Most assuredly, the F-Series was America’s best-selling vehicle in December. Combined, the second-ranked Chevrolet Silverado and third-ranked Ram P/U only outsold the F-Series by 1406 units.

According to the Automotive News Data Center, December was a month of little growth in the U.S. auto industry as total sales rose by just 2602 units.

Passenger cars were the drag, falling 3.5%. You’ll find symptoms of that underlying issue at Toyota, where America’s most popular car, the Camry, fell 5% in December. 

Honda’s Civic, America’s leading small car, fell 12% in December, and sales of the second and fourth-best-selling cars in December – the Toyota Corolla and Chevrolet Cruze – were down 9% and 14%, respectively.

In total, 13 of the 30 best-selling cars in America in December were passenger cars, down from 15 in December 2012 and 15 one month ago.
