Despite a 27% year-over-year decline in November 2014, the Honda Civic was still Canada's best-selling compact and best-selling car overall.
The Civic also secured what was already a fairly secure position as Canada's best-selling car for the 2014 calendar year.
• Canada Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - November 2014 YTD
• Canada Car Sales Rankings By Model - November 2014 YTD
Sales of numerous top-selling compacts declined in November, dragging down the passenger car category as a whole. Subtract the losses from the Civic, Corolla, 3, and Jetta and passenger car sales, rather than falling 3.4%, increased 2.8%.
Subcompact cars were led by a Honda in November, as well. The new Fit produced a 138% increase to 1755 November sales, a gain of 1018 units. It's the fourth-best-selling subcompact in Canada this year. GCBC reviewed the 2015 Honda Fit earlier this month.

GCBC isn't here to break down segments, an impossible task for any group, but to display sales data for the sake of comparison. The more ways sales data can be displayed, the better. This explains why you'll see the Encore and XV Crosstrek are listed with small SUVs, too, and the Acura ILX shown with mainstream cars is also displayed with luxury cars... because readers have wanted it both ways. You can always find the sales results for EVERY vehicle and form your own competitive sets by using the All Vehicle Rankings posts.
