Canada Sales By Model : 2013

Toronto, or Toron-o as the locals seem to say it

The thing that stands out for me is the strength of Asian models. If Japan and Korea branded models are combined, they would constitute 54% of the total. Compare that with 40% for US and just 6% for Europe. Of course, US brands are more at the top of the list, but Asian models are certainly popular north of the 49th parallel.

The top two pick up trucks had useful gains in sales. It seems they are especially popular in the prairie states, Northern Alberta in particular. There is a financial boom out west which is pushing the pick up up. The Civic is made in Canada, so that helps that model to make third place.

So while city folk in Canada probably think the country buys mainly fuel efficient cars, out west it is a very different story.
