Chevrolet Impala volume declined in the United States in May 2015, the fifth consecutive year-over-year decline for America's top-selling full-size car.
The Impala's 14% drop wasn't as bad as the pace set by its overall segment. Every Impala rival – both direct and indirect – posted declining U.S. sales volume in May.

The Nissan Maxima's 52% drop comes as Nissan extinguishes the seventh-generation and launches the eighth-generation. The Kia Cadenza lost nearly half its May 2014 volume. Hyundai Azera sales slid 35%. The Toyota Avalon and Ford Taurus each decreased by more than 20%.
Combined, the eleven cars listed here lost more than 10,000 sales, year-over-year. They're down 15% year-to-date, a 35,000-unit drop.
