Top 30 Best Selling Vehicles In America 2014 Year End

2015 ford f-150
Pickup trucks claimed the three top positions as Americas best-selling vehicles in 2014, combining to generate one out of every ten new vehicle sales over the last twelve months.

Cars, beginning with the top-selling Toyota Camry, claimed the next four positions and 14 of the top 28. This list of the 30 best-selling vehicles includes five pickup trucks in total, no minivans, and 11 utility vehicles, from the eighth-ranked Honda CR-V to the 30th-ranked Toyota Highlander. 

Compared with the 2013 edition of this list, the Ford Edge, Chevrolet Impala, and Toyota Prius have all been knocked off. They were replaced by the Highlander, Jeep Cherokee, and Subaru Forester.

Top 20 Worst Selling Vehicles In America January 2015

Although its U.S. sales volume was chopped in half in January 2015, falling from a paltry 232 units in January 2014 to 115 last month, the Chevrolet SS did not rank among Americas 20 worst-selling vehicles in 2014. 

How come?

Precisely 20 other vehicles saw their sales decline at an even faster rate. 


• U.S. Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - January 2015


Many of those vehicles are defunct or about to be replaced - the Chevrolet Captiva Sport and Audi TT as examples - but many others were simply not as successful in January 2015 as they were one year earlier.

Not that Kia was selling boatloads of Cadenzas in early 2014; not that the Acura RLX was an outright hit in January of last year. 

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.
