Like the Escape – and the third-ranked Toyota RAV4 and fourth-ranked Nissan Rogue - broke its own sales record in the 2014 calendar year. The 25 vehicles shown here accounted for just under one-quarter of all new vehicle sales in Canada in 2014. The Escape, CR-V, RAV4, and Rogue alone generate 8% of the country's automotive sales activity, up from 7% in 2013.
Three of Canada's 25 top-selling utility vehicles wear premium badges. The top-ranked Lexus RX, Canada's 22nd-best-selling SUV/crossover overall, scored a narrow 51-unit victory over the 23rd-ranked Audi Q5. Acura's RDX was more than 1300 sales back of the increasingly popular Audi.

If so, it would have ranked 21st in Canadian sales in 2014, rather than ranking 25th among cars. The Toyota Venza would have ranked 24th with 7610 sales; the Subaru XV Crosstrek 25th with 6922.RECOMMENDED READINGTop 25 Best-Selling SUVs In Canada - 2013 Year EndTop 25 Best-Selling SUVs In Canada - 2012 Year EndTop 20 Best-Selling SUVs In Canada - 2011 Year EndTop 20 Best-Selling SUVs In Canada - December 2014Canada Auto Sales Brand Rankings - 2014 Year EndTop 25 Best-Selling Cars In Canada - 2014 Year EndTop 30 Best-Selling Vehicles In Canada - 2014 Year EndTop 13 Best-Selling Trucks In Canada - 2014 Year End
