Not all midsize cars, mind you. 

The best-selling Toyota Camry and second-best-selling Honda Accord both posted modest decreases. Two low-volume cars which had been steadily growing, the Subaru Legacy and Mazda 6, both posted slight July losses, as well.

But the third-ranked Nissan Altima jumped 27%. The Chevrolet Malibu, Chrysler 200, and Ford Fusion, Detroit competitors all, posted noticeable improvements. The Hyundai Sonata, down 7% through the first seven months of 2015, was up 6% in July.

As a result, after sliding 4% through the first-half of 2015, July displayed a measure of stability thanks to 4% growth. In fact, one year ago, sales of the core midsize car segment grew 7% in comparison with July 2013.

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 listed with midsize SUVs, too... 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.
