Top 20 Worst-Selling Vehicles In America - January 2016

2014 Volvo S60 grey fog
More than half the Volvos sold in America in January 2016 were fresh, new, second-generation XC90s. The brand's flagship is relocating the success it first found a decade ago, and that's good news for Volvo.


U.S. Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - January 2016


But after pulling forward thousands of buyers into other Volvos in December, dealers struggled to sell anything other than the XC90 in January. The S80, Volvo's soon-to-be-replaced flagship sedan, was down 81% to just 41 units. The S60, Volvo's core sedan, tumbled by two-thirds to only 455 sales. 

The XC60 missed this list of the worst-selling vehicles in America, but sales were down 43%. The V60 wagon fell by half to only 147 units. 

The laughably off-base S60 Cross Country, never intended to be a volume seller – because Volvo knows they can't sell more than a handful – fell from its high of 104 sales in December to only 38 in January, making the S60 CC America's 16th-lowest-volume vehicle last month. The S80 ranked 17th on the second list.

Many new vehicles on these lists of the worst-selling vehicles in America or discontinued models, on hiatus, or set to be replaced in the next few weeks. Others, like the M-Class and GLK, have been renamed (GLE) or replaced in second-gen form (GLC). In the case of non-XC90 Volvos, the brand is yet to prove it can consistently market itself to a large number of luxury-minded consumers in America. 

Globally? That's a different story.
