Canada Auto Sales Brand Rankings - July 2016 YTD

Canadian auto sales surged 6% in the first-half of 2016, climbing to a record of nearly 1 million units between January and June. With fuel prices low and money cheap and automakers willing to bolster demand via incentives, there's little reason to believe that, as the U.S. market slowed in the last three months, Canadian auto sales volume will begin to decline.

Canada Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - July 2016 YTD

---

As automakers reported their Canadian July and seven-month tallies throughout the afternoon of August 3, however, we saw that July was in fact going to be a month of decline. Huge results from the Ford Motor Company, which regained its position as Canada's top-selling automaker, were counteracted by a sharp decline at Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, where a new methodology was employed to count sales. 

Sales of Canada's best-selling car, the Honda Civic, slid 16%, bringing Honda Canada down 4%. Brands which surged ahead of the market's average pace in the first-half of 2016 – Nissan, Mitsubishi, Scion, Smart, Jeep – posted year-over-year declines in July. 

As a result, industry-wide Canadian auto sales fell by nearly 3% in July 2016, a loss of 4600 sales.


Mercedes-Benz continued to lay claim to the title of Canada's top-selling luxury brand. Ford MoCo's Ford brand led all brands.

Jaguar, Volvo, Land Rover – all former Ford-owned brands – were the fastest-growing marques.
