Top 20 Best Selling Cars In America January 2015

2014 toyota corolla s red
The Toyota Camry wasnt the best-selling car in America in January 2015, and despite the fact that the Camry held that crown in calendar year 2014, the drop to second spot wasnt surprising in January. The Camry was only Americas best-selling car in two of 2014s final five months - Nissans Altima ranked first in December.

Yet while the Camrys slide into the second position wasnt surprising, it was somewhat surprising to see its key rivals trailing the number two Toyota in January.

The Nissan Altima ranked third; the Honda Accord fourth.

The Toyota Corolla was Americas best-selling car in January 2015.

Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for any of these best-selling cars can always be accessed through the dropdown menu at GCBCs Sales Stats page, and for those not viewing the mobile version of this site, near the top right of this page, as well. GoodCarBadCar has already published the list of Americas best-selling trucks and best-selling SUVs in January 2015.

Top 20 Worst Selling Vehicles In America September 2014

2015 Kia K900
U.S. sales of the Kia K900 have declined in five consecutive months after peaking at 260 units in its first full month on sale, April 2014. Only 56 K900s were sold in September 2014. Hyundai sold 261 copies of the Equus, a 30% decline year-over-year.


• All Makes & Models Ranked By September 2014 YTD U.S. Sales


Kia Cadenza sales, meanwhile, rose 19% to 1105 units. Compared with cars like the Chevrolet Impala, Chrysler 300, and even the Toyota Avalon, thats a disappointing figure. But for Kia, the Cadenza may represent the peak of whats possible. The K900 is a rear-wheel-drive, V8-powered sedan with a base price of $59,500. Is the K900 a ridiculous deal? Yes. Is it what people want? Clearly not.

Kia knows were going to pay particular attention to the K900s disappointing tallies, so they place an asterisk on their monthly sales release, saying, "2015 K900 V8 available in select trims and in select markets with limited availability." If there were multiple K900s sitting in every Kia showroom across America, it still wouldnt change the fact that sedan buyers with $60,000 dont want a Kia. Only 14 nameplates sold less often in September 2014 than the Kia. 

You can always select a make and model at GCBCs Sales Stats page to find historical monthly and yearly sales figures from both Canada and the United States. Pertinent links are clickable at the bottom of this post, but you can also find related links at the Best Sellers page.

Top 20 Best Selling SUVs In Canada December 2014

In December 2014, for the second consecutive month, Canadas best-selling SUV/crossover was the Honda CR-V, the vehicle GCBC is testing for review this very week. (Were averaging an impressive 8.8 L/100km in cold city driving so far.) 


• All Vehicles Ranked By December & 2014 Year End Canadian Sales
• All SUVs/Crossovers Ranked By December & 2014 Year End Canadian Sales


Although the CR-V was well back of the segment-leading Ford Escape over the course of 2014s twelve months, Hondas core crossover was a dominant vehicle in the final one-sixth of the year. The CR-V outsold the Escape by 729 units in November and then 1289 units in December.

The Escape wasnt performing poorly last month. Ford reported a 10.5% year-over-year Escape sales improvement in December. All eight of the top-selling SUVs and crossovers in Canada posted meaningful increases in December, combining for 19,340 sales, up 19% compared with December 2013.
