January 2013 Small Car Sales In America

The Subaru XV Crosstrek Had Its Best January Evaaahr! |
GCBC's monthly U.S. small car sales post has been completely realigned. New possible rivals have been added - mostly small crossovers - and the detailed sales figures visible after the jump have been divided to better display cars in their competitive set. Compacts and subcompacts, for example, are separated. These sub-segment breakdowns are arbitrary and are not guaranteed to fall in line with how every buyer cross-shops. |

Japanese sedans, as is commonly the case, dominated the U.S. small car arena in January 2013. Last year's top seller, the Honda Civic, fell by a couple units in January. This gave the Toyota Corolla (and its Matrix hatchback sibling) an opportunity to grab the top spot.
Nissan's Versa led all other subcompacts by a wide margin; even the Accent/Rio tandem by 4305 units. And the Fiat 500 reported its 11th consecutive month of year-over-year increases. 73% of the Mini Coopers sold were traditional hardtops.All 247 Vehicles Ranked By January 2013 Sales
