2016 Best Selling Minivans In the United States (All Models Ranked)
U.S. minivan sales jumped 6% to 553,506 units in calendar year 2016, slowing sharply at the end of the year after an FCA-powered clear-out surge in the early part of 2016. December 2016’s 18% decline, for example, was not out of character after sales tumbled in each of the last five months of the year, falling by double-digits on the percentage scale throughout the fourth-quarter. But the year as a whole was nevertheless a year of improvement for the minivan sector, though sales were down by nearly 1% compared with the 2014 calendar year.
The Toyota Sienna narrowly edged the Dodge Grand Caravan – by just 113 units – to end 2016 as America’s top-selling minivan, the second consecutive year of leadership for the Sienna. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, which builds the new Chrysler Pacifica, the departed Chrysler Town & Country, and the second-ranked Dodge Grand Caravan, produced 249,115 total minivan sales in 2016, equal to 45% of the overall minivan market.
