Top 25 Best Selling Cars In Canada 2014 Year End

2014 Honda Civic
The Honda Civic was Canadas best-selling car in 2014, the 17th consecutive year in which the Civic has topped Canadas car sales leaderboard. Although the Civic hasnt been Canadas best-selling vehicle overall since 2008, Civic volume in 2014 reached its highest point since then.

• Canada Car Sales Rankings By Model - December & 2014 Year End


The Civic accounted for nearly 9% of all Canadian passenger car sales in 2014, up from just over 8% in 2013. As the car market stumbled - and the overall auto industry soared to record highs - Civic sales increased. Its top competitor, the Hyundai Elantra, slid 8%, but its fall wasnt sufficient for the surging Toyota Corolla to grab the number two spot.

Canadas top-selling midsize car in 2014 was the ninth-ranked Fusion. But like the second and third and fourth-ranked midsize cars, Fusion sales dropped in 2014. 

Canadas leading subcompact was the Hyundai Accent. With 23,173 sales, the Accent sold more often in 2014 than at any time since 2010. Combined with the second-ranked subcompact, the Accent-platform-sharing Kia Rio, Hyundai-Kia sold 37,631 subcompacts in Canada in 2014.

Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for any of these best-selling cars can always be accessed through the dropdown menu at GCBCs Sales Stats page, and for those not viewing the mobile version of this site, near the top right of this page, as well. GoodCarBadCar has already published the list of Canadas best-selling trucks, will soon publish a list of Canadas best-selling SUVs in 2014, and has also posted December-specific editions.

Prefer to think of the Subaru Outback as an SUV rather than a car? If so, it would have ranked 21st in 2014.

Top 25 Best Selling SUVs In America 2014 Year End

2015 Honda CR-V profile
The Honda CR-V was Americas best-selling SUV in 2014, the CR-Vs third consecutive year atop the SUV/crossover leaderboard. 

Trailing the CR-V were vehicles as rugged as the Jeep Wrangler (ranked ninth), as quiet as the Lexus RX (ranked 15th), as big as the Chevrolet Tahoe (ranked 20th), and as competitive as the Ford Escape, Toyota RAV4, Chevrolet Equinox, Nissan Rogue, and Jeep Cherokee, which ranked second, third, fourth, sixth, and eighth, respectively, in calendar year 2014.

• U.S. SUV/Crossover Sales Rankings By Model - 2014 Year End


The CR-V took over from the Ford Explorer in 2007 and has only looked back once, in 2011, when the Ford Escape stole its crown. Like the CR-V (and RAV4, and Equinox, and Rogue), the Escape reported record U.S. sales this last year. 

Meanwhile, the Ford Explorer, a dominant SUV of the past, is not forgotten. Explorer sales jumped 9% to 209,994 units in 2014, enough for fifth place overall and the Explorers best U.S. sales year since 2005.

Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for any of these best-selling SUVs can always be accessed through the dropdown menu at GCBCs Sales Stats page, and for those not viewing the mobile version of this site, near the top right of this page, as well. GoodCarBadCar has already published the list of Americas best-selling trucks and will shortly publish the list of best-selling cars in 2014 and also December-specific editions.

2015 Honda CR-V
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.
