Canada Auto Sales Brand Rankings 2014 Year End
Canadians registered a record number of new vehicles in 2014 after setting the previous record in 2013. 1.85 million new cars, trucks, SUVs, and vans were sold over the last twelve months, a huge 6% and 106,000-unit increase from 2013 levels.

Ford is Canadas top-selling auto brand and top-selling manufacturer, with help from Lincoln. No volume brand posted a more significant year-over-year percentage increase in 2014 than Jeep, which jumped 58% to 70,503 units, claiming 3.8% of the overall market. The sharpest declines belonged to Scion, Mini, Volvo, Kia, and two of Jeeps sibling brands, Chrysler and Dodge.
Canadas top-selling premium brand was Mercedes-Benz. Canadians made the Honda Civic their favourite car for the 17th consecutive year. The Ford F-Series continues to be the top-selling vehicle; the Ford Escape continues to be Canadas best-selling SUV/crossover. The Dodge Grand Caravan earns more than half the minivan markets volume.
