Top 11 Best-Selling Pickup Trucks In America - January 2017

Pickup truck sales jumped 4% in the United States in January 2017, a positive start to a year that hasn't started nearly so positively for many automakers. Lexus and Acura, for instance, suffered their lowest-volume months since January 2012.

But trucks, and full-size trucks in particular, generated more American sales activity in January 2017 than in January 2016. Thank the Ford F-Series, America's best-selling vehicle line, most of all. F-Series sales jumped 13% while sales of its prime competitor, the Chevrolet Silverado, slid 6%. 

Midsize trucks, meanwhile, grew only 2.5% after surging throughout 2016. The Toyota Tacoma and Nissan Frontier, the latter most especially, couldn't match January 2016's pace. The gains produced by GM's midsize twins and the Honda Ridgeline only barely counteracted the Tacoma/Frontier losses.

Midsize pickup truck market share slid to 15.5% in January 2017 from 15.7% in January 2016 and 16.7% in the 2016 calendar year.

Top 15 Best-Selling Luxury Vehicles In Canada - June 2016

In June 2016, for a second consecutive month, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class was Canada's best-selling premium brand automobile, 410 sales ahead of the next-best-selling premium car; 173 sales ahead of the second-ranked premium vehicle, Audi's Q5.

Through the first-half of 2016, the C-Class is Canada's luxury leader despite a 17% year-over-year sales decline. Canada's luxury SUV leader is the Mercedes-Benz GLE (formerly known as the M-Class) is a scant two units ahead of the Audi Q5, last year's top-selling premium SUV/crossover.

Among the 15 top-selling premium autos in June 2016, nine were SUVs/crossovers. Two of the six cars in the top 15 posted declining sales in June; only one of the nine utility vehicles did the same. 

Among vehicles with MSRPs above $50,000, the 13 leaders in June were all SUVs/crossovers, and 14 of the top 15. Incidentally, the only car that cracked that top 15 is decidedly out of the mainstream: Chevrolet's Corvette.

^ Mercedes-Benz Canada's figures combine the GLE-Class with the defunct M-Class.
$50,000 CDN (before delivery) is an arbitrary borderline, but if GCBC was to follow this new system of designating only expensive vehicles as luxury vehicles, $50K seemed like a safe place to begin - it equals the approximate average U.S. new car transaction price plus $15,000, plus another $5000 to account for Canadian increases. Plenty of less expensive vehicles with specific models feature prices above $50,000 - M, RS, and AMG models come to mind, specifically - but in the case of this list, we know that none of the registrations were of cars priced below $50,000.

June 2016 YTD Canada SUV And Crossover Sales Rankings - Top 98 Best-Selling SUVs In Canada - Every SUV Ranked

SUVs and crossovers produced 39% of the Canadian auto industry's new vehicle sales volume in the first-half of 2016, a figure which climbed all the way to 40% during the month of June. 

Thanks to huge year-over-year improvements from the Nissan Rogue, Jeep Cherokee, Hyundai Tucson, and the segment-leading Toyota RAV4, June SUV/crossover volume jumped by more than 10,000 units.

The Tucson's improvement was most noteworthy. With one huge monthly performance, the Tucson suddenly became Hyundai Canada's top-selling utility vehicle, overtaking the Hyundai Santa Fe Sport thanks to a 314%, 3068-unit year-over-year increase in June. At this stage of 2015, the Tucson was Canada's 13th-best-selling utility vehicle – the Tucson ranks sixth in 2016.

Only six of the 35 best-selling utility vehicles in Canada are selling less often this year than last. More than eight years into its run, the Dodge Journey's 33% drop is the worst of any SUV/crossover in the top 75.

Among premium candidates, the losses reported by the Acura MDX, Mercedes-Benz GLC, and Cadillac SRX stand out in a sector which is growing at a rapid rate. The SRX's decline needs to be put in context, of course. Combined sales of the SRX and its XT5 successor are down by only three units, year-to-date. 

Meanwhile, sales of the MDX should improve as the Ohio-assembled 2017 model becomes available – constrained supply is an issue at Honda's Alabama plant where the Honda Pilot, Honda Odyssey, Honda Ridgeline, and Acura MDX are all built.

We also expect to see a cloer battle between the top-ranked Toyota RAV4 and the second-ranked Ford Escape as the thoroughly revamped 2017 Escape becomes more common on dealer lots. But is it too late for the Escape, a long-time best-selling SUV in Canada, to capture the crown once again in 2016? The RAV4's lead at the halfway point is a significant 3911 units.

Reminder: these are 2016 year-to-date rankings, but you can sort vehicles by June 2016 volume by clicking the June 2016 column header, or you can rank vehicles by improvements or declines using the % columns.
