The Ford Escape was Canada's best-selling utility vehicle in May 2015 despite a 1% drop and a 22% year-over-year improvement in the sales of its next-best-selling rival, the Toyota RAV4.
Canada Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - May 2015 YTD
Canada SUV/Crossover Sales Rankings By Model - May 2015 YTD
Even with those swings, the Escape finished the month of May with 1168 more sales than the RAV4. Year-to-date, the Escape is 2149 sales ahead of the small Toyota crossover.
Although May was a record-setting month for the Canadian auto industry, the gains compared with May 2014 were, at just 1%, rather slight. Moreover, the improvement was generated by a mix of particularly strong and particularly weak performances by a bevy of auto brands.
Evidence of those two poles is present in this list of Canada's 20 best-selling SUVs, where Jeep's record-setting 3312 Cherokee sales - a 50% gain - and a 145% increase for the Patriot, are contrasted with nine different year-over-year declines, including 21%, 33%, and 30% losses from the 18th, 19th, and 20th-ranked utility vehicles.
