The Honda CR-V, Canada's top-selling utility vehicle in each of the two previous months, fell to fourth spot, although CR-V volume was healthier in January 2015 than in the same period a year ago.Unusually placed in the top 20 in January was the Nissan Murano. The third-generation of Nissan's wildly-styled two-row crossover began arriving at Nissan's Canadian dealers last month. The Murano likely won't report 275% year-over-year increases for long, but don't be surprised if we see a burst through the first quarter. The Murano was the 39th-best-selling utility vehicle in Canada in calendar year 2014.
