Midsize Car Sales In America - December 2015 And 2015 Year End

2016 Mazda 6 silver action
Sales of midsize cars in America declined 2% in calendar year 2015, in line with the 2% decline in the overall U.S. passenger car market.

The American auto industry produced a 6% year-over-year gain in calendar year 2015 on the way to a  record sales year. Traditional cars carry less sway, however, as consumers veer away from sedans like the Honda Accord, Nissan Altima, and Hyundai Sonata toward the Honda CR-V, Nissan Rogue, and Hyundai Santa Fe Sport.

The Toyota Camry was America's best-selling car in 2015, the 14th consecutive year the midsize Toyota has held such status. Obviously then, the Camry is the most popular vehicle in its category, claiming 429,355 total sales in the U.S. in 2015, a marginal 749-unit year-over-year increase. 

The Honda Accord fell much farther back from the Camry in 2015, however. After trailing the Camry by 40,232 units in 2014, the Accord was 73,798 sales abaft in 2015.

Together, the Camry, Accord, and third-ranked Altima owned 47% of the American midsize car market in calendar year 2015, down slightly from 48% in 2014. The big mover in 2015 was the Chrysler 200, sales of which were half again as strong. But the Chrysler's parent company, FCA, saw total midsize car volume – including the Dodge Avenger – climb by a more reasonable 6%. 

The Subaru Legacy's 16% increase and the Mazda 6's 9% uptick were the other noteworthy improvements.

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.
