Most Popular New Cars Right Now
New car sales have come back strong last month compared to a year ago, mainly due to higher incentives and higher consumer confidence.
GM has stopped reporting monthly sales figures, so Chevrolet, Cadillac, Buick, and GMC are not included in this list. Pickup trucks took the top 2 spots, with the Nissan Rogue taking #3. The Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V round out the top 5. The Ford F-Series was #1 as usual, selling a whopping 84,639 units.
If you're considering purchasing any of these popular vehicles, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle and Edmunds Price Promise to see the best deals being offered in your area.
