In other words, it was a great month for GM’s Lambda platform crossovers.
But it was also a big month for the Ford Explorer, revamped for the 2016 model year. Explorer sales in July 2015 were 35% higher than Explorer sales were in July 2010 and July 2011 combined.

GCBC isn’t here to break down segments, an impossible task for any group, but to display sales data for the sake of comparison. The more ways sales data can be displayed, the better. This explains why you’ll see the Outback and Venza here but also with midsize cars, too, and the pricey FJ Cruiser and Xterra with smaller utilities and the Volkswagen Touareg with luxury SUVs… because readers have wanted it both ways. You can always find the sales results for EVERY vehicle and form your own competitive sets by using the All Vehicle Rankings posts.
