2016 Hyundai Tucson grey
U.S. auto sales in calendar year 2015 climbed to a record high of nearly 17.5 million units. The race to end 2016 with more than 17.5 million new vehicle sales begins in January, a month with only 24 selling days, down from 26 a year ago.

In addition to the selling day difference, which could skew year-ver-year comparisons, a period of brtual weather on the east coast of the country may have had a negative impact on total new vehicle sales in January 2016. 

That said, don't confuse the 0.4% decline in total new vehicle sales volume reported by manufacturers with a severe slowdown following a banner year. January is a low-volume month to begin with and has less significance than any other month on the eyar end total. Last year, January accounted for just 6.6% of all new vehicle sales despite accounting for 8.5% of the calendar.


• Top-Selling Automaker: General Motors
• Top-Selling Auto Brand: Ford
• Best-Selling Car: Toyota Camry
• Best-Selling SUV/CUV: Toyota RAV4
• Best-Selling Premium Brand: Mercedes-Benz
• Fastest-Growing Automaker: Buick, +45.5%
• Most Serious Slowdown: Chrysler, -22.1%
• Nissan Outsold Honda; Buick Outsold BMW


Besides, the daily selling rate in January 2016 increased 8% despite the potential impact of winter storm Jonas. 

Ford reported a 5% F-Series decline and a 12% loss in car sales, meaning the 4% overall gain in utilities and an 8% Lincoln uptick weren't enough to drive the overall Ford Motor Company to an improved January. 

At FCA, the automaker's namesake brands – Fiat and Chrysler – plunged 20% and 22% respectively, but strong Jeep results and improvements at Dodge and Ram boosted FCA to a 7% improvement overall.



General Motors, the largest automaker in America, reported a huge Buick increase, a modest Cadillac decline, a meaningful Chevrolet loss, and a meager GMC improvement.

American Honda's Acura brand took a 14.5% dive in January; Honda sales were flat as the CR-V and Accord slipped and Honda Civic sales jumped 43%.
