Yuliya Nemykina CTW Features
Crossovers have now usurped sedans as the auto industry’s most popular segment. As its name suggests, the crossover is a mix of two other vehicles: the truck-based SUV and the minivan. It’s a spacious, all-wheel drive hatchback, but on a car platform, which is why it has made such an impact with families. In fact four of the top 20 selling vehicles overall are now compact crossovers according to Autodata in Woodcliff Lake, N.J., with stalwarts like the Honda CR-V, Ford Escape, Chevrolet Equinox and Toyota RAV4 leading the pack. - Yuliya Nemykina Here are the top selling crossovers and the number of models sold between January 2013 and January 2014: Ford Escape 19,459 Honda CR-V 18,232 Toyota RAV4 16,880 Chevrolet Equinox 14, 547 Nissan Rogue 13,831 Jeep Grand Cherokee 12,207 Subaru Forester 10,771 Toyota Highlander 10,676 Jeep Cherokee 10,505 Source: GoodCarBadCar “January 2014 U.S. SUV And Crossover Sales Rankings - Top 85 Best-Selling SUVs In America - Every SUV Ranked”
