CarCostCanada's September 2019 Top 10 Vehicles Sold Report

After a hot summer in terms of Canadian new car sales, we were hoping to see this trend continue into the colder months, and we can happily say it has! All but three vehicles on our list registered an increase in their sales in comparison to September 2018. This is a move in the right direction for the retail automobile industry. As for total light vehicle sales, there was a decrease of 19% for passenger vehicles, but light truck sales had yet another increase by 2%. Overall, the numbers were down by 4% in comparison to September 2018. Now, for the vehicles that made our top ten list. Once again the F Series held it’s number one spot, but deliveries were down by 2% in comparison to last year. Ram had another amazing month as their pickup had a healthy 13% increase. Another vehicle that saw a large increase in it’s sales was surprisingly the Chevrolet Silverado. This was the first month in 2019 that two GM vehicles on our list had an increase in sales and not a decrease. The Honda Civic however, did not have a great month as it’s sales dropped by 13% in comparison to September 2018. Two manufacturers that had the most significant declines in overall sales were GM and Nissan + Mitsubishi, as they had an 8% decrease and a 10% decrease, respectively. On the other hand, Hyundai + Kia was up by 6% and none other than Mercedes Benz had a 5% increase in overall sales. In conclusion, September was a great month and hopefully the remaining months of 2019 will be just as positive.
