Chart Of The Day: Compact Crossover Sales In July

The Compact Crossover segment has changed a bit since last month, as the Honda CR-V enjoyed strong demand en route to over 20k monthly sales. Rogue had a strong month as well, but still ended up about 5k units shy of last month’s segment leader, the Ford Escape. Terrain seems to be going a bit weak compared to recent months, and even Equinox was down a bit from its July 2009 number. Sportage is way off ahead of its new model rollout, but once the 2011s come in, expect Kia cute ute to mix things up in the 7k-ish and above monthly volume range.

Caliber is classified with the compacts on TTAC. Probably because it no longer has all wheel drive option.
GM is capacity constrained on the new Equinox/Terrain. Can't make 'em fast enough, and they fly off the dealer lots.
CRaVe mom should have bought the Equinox instead. Next time take a test drive.
Patriot/Compass numbers were much higher last year because desperate Chrysler was MATCHING the cash for clunkers rebate. Caliber, Patriot and Compass had up to $9,000 in rebates. Needless to say, that moved the metal. Allpar reports 2011 Compass has "mini"Grand Cherokee look to the new front end. Has to be an improvement!
