Top 20 Best-Selling Cars In America - December 2013


2012 VW Passat
No Car Among December 2013's Top 20 Best Sellers Reported
A Worse YOY Decline Than The Volkswagen Passat
The Toyota Camry, America's best-selling car in 2013, was not America's best-selling car in December 2013. 

The Honda Accord took top honours as sales of the Camry dropped 5% and Accord sales jumped 10%. 

Honda also took third spot with the Civic. Toyota's filled in as America's sixth and 15th-best-selling cars. 

Ford's Fusion resided in fifth spot; the Focus fell 31% and was America's tenth-best-selling vehicle, behind the BMW 3-Series and its 4-Series two-door derivative. No other premium brand landed a car in December's top 20.
