Midsize Car Sales In America November 2014 YTD

2015 Chevrolet Malibu
Not for the first time in 2014, U.S. midsize car sales fell flat in November 2014. The 1% slide last month came despite a 155% rise in sales of the Chrysler 200 - and a 41% overall increase in Chrysler Group midsize sales - and a 97% boost from the Subaru Legacy.

Yet the best-selling cars in the category, which also happen to be most of Americas best-selling cars overall, were not as successful in November 2014 as they were one year earlier. The Toyota Camry was down 5%, although sales are up 5% so far this year. The Honda Accord was down 7%, although Accord sales are up 7% this year. 

The Nissan Altima was also down 7%. Ford Fusion volume slid 11%, the Fusions decline since April of this year. 

With declines from the best sellers and the typical familys increased interest in small SUVs, the Honda CR-V was the top-selling non-pickup truck in America in November 2014 a position normally held by either the Toyota Camry or Honda Accord. Sales of CR-V-class SUVs and crossovers jumped 16% to more than 200,000 units in November 2014.

Small And Midsize Luxury Car Sales In Canada November 2014 YTD

2015 Audi S3 sedan red
As the number of entry luxury car nameplates increases, so too does the volume generated by the overall entry luxury car segment. November sales of cars like the BMW 3-Series, Audi A3, Lexus IS, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class jumped 20% in Canada. 

Lexus began selling the RC coupe last month as a partner to the IS and GS sedans. 41 of the 56 sold were RC350s, the other 15 were 467-horsepower, $80,800 F models.

No premium brand car sells as often as BMWs 3-Series. 894 copies were sold in November, good enough to make the 3-Series family Canadas 19th-best-selling car overall, just behind the Nissan Micra, Canadas most affordable new car.

GCBC isnt 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 youll see the XC70 listed with luxury SUVs and the Acura ILX with mainstream cars... 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.
^ Acura combines sales figures of the outgoing RL with the new RLX. Mercedes-Benzs Canadian sales figures combine the E-Class with the CLS-Class. Audi Canadas A4 sales figures include sales of the Allroad.
‡ The XTS, K900, and Equus arent listed here because theyre not massive - they are - but because their price points position them much more closely to, for example, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class than the S-Class. Genesis sales figures here do not include sales of the Genesis Coupe (as Hyundais U.S. Genesis sales figures do), making the comparison with premium brand vehicles much more valid.
