US car sales analysis October 2018 – models

After looking at October sales by brand, let us now look at how individual models performed.

NOTE: In an effort to make the monthly model tables as informative as possible, we will continue to update them over the next few months. As such, let us know what you think of the new table, and suggest any way you think the tables could be improved further.

Highlights

  • After a tumultuous September things evened out somewhat in the Top 10, with Ram Pickup once again outselling the Chevrolet Silverado (according to our estimates), although Honda sedans continued to lose sales at a double-digit rate
  • The Highlander and Tacoma continue to shine for Toyota, with double-digit sales growth, making up for the poor performance of the outgoing Corolla (sales down 11.9%)
  • Sales of the fifth-generation Subaru Forester took off, boosting month-on-moth sales by 19%, but clearly came at the expense of the Outback, which saw its sales fall by almost 27%, making for the model’s lowest ranking in over a year

Subaru Forester

  • Although the new Nissan Altima went on sale the model still registered a 25% sales drop, for a YTD sales decline of over 17%
  • The new Jeep Wrangler registered its first sales decline since it went on sale in the spring
  • Dodge Grand Caravan continued to sell at four times the rate it had at this time in 2017
  • Sales of the new Volkswagen Jetta have only been a small improvement over what the old model managed this time of the year, boding ill for the model’s long-term prospects
  • The new Acura RDX is proving quite the hit for the carmaker, coming within 100 units of outselling the segment-leading Audi Q5
  • Ford Fiesta recorded a remarkable 66% rise in sales, putting the model back into the black for the year, though the boost clearly came at the expense of big-brother Focus, whose sales sank to a 4-year low, leading to the model being almost outsold by the Mustang!
  • Customers seem to be abandoning the GMC Acadia (sales down more than half), suggesting GMC’s decision to scale down the second-generation model may not have been the right way to go
  • By contrast, the “normalized” second-generation Infiniti QX50 seems to be going down with customers much better than the original model (sales up over 140%), although this means the model still sold only half as well as the Q5
  • The still-fresh Nissan Maxima experienced a sales collapse of almost two-thirds, dragging the model’s YTD sales down to almost 40% below 2017 levels
  • Honda Fit saw its sales collapse by over 70%, while the once-popular Genesis G80 (nee Hyundai Genesis) saw its sales fall by almost 85%!

New model highlights

Genesis G70
  • The new Genesis G70 managed a mere 51 units in its first full month on the market, which combined with the travails of the G80 suggests dark times ahead for Hyundai’s wannabe new brand
  • Despite falling from the lofty heights reached this summer, sales of the new BMW X2 still topped those of the Volvo XC40 and, in particular, the Jaguar E-Pace
  • Sales of the Subaru Ascent topped 6,000 units for the first time
  • Sales of the Nissan Kicks seems to be stabilizing at around 3,500 units, while those of the eco Hondas, the Clarity and its Insight cousin, are stabilizing at around 2,000
  • The controversial Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross saw its sales cross 1,000 units for the first time

  1. Nice new format.
    Just a few comments.
    No need for ‘Huge Increase’ arrow for new models.
    No need for ‘Huge decrease’ or ‘Worst Rank for 4 years’ for discontinued models.
    No change has a down pointing arrow?

  2. Hey guys! What happened to you?
    The site hasn’t been updated for ages! At least tell something to your readers to know if it was abandoned or not.

    1. Yes, where are you guys? LA Auto Show review? New Mazda3 and Porsche 911?
      .
      CSB is a bit like ChaSBeen lately… (no offence, I’m a daily visitor).
