Largely to blame for the segment's overall decline are the declines reported by the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan, which combined to tumble by 8710 units last month. But the discontinued Mazda 5 also lost 25% of its August volume, the Nissan Quest slid 12%, and Toyota's Sienna – America's best-selling minivan so far this year – was down 9%.

For the second consecutive month, the Honda Odyssey was America's top-selling MPV. Odyssey sales jumped 7.5% to 13,423 units, the best month for the Odyssey since June 2013. Kia Sedona sales continued their upward trek, as Kia's still-fresh people carrier generated 5.7% of the minivan category's volume.
