U.S. Auto Sales Brand Rankings - 2016 Year End
U.S. auto sales unexpectedly increased 4% in November 2016 and then, once again against expectations, grew 3% in December 2016 to cap off an up-and-down year that turned out to be the highest-volume year in the U.S. auto industry's history.
With 17.54 million new vehicle sales in calendar year 2016, monthly sales grew by roughly 4700 units compared with 2015, a modest increase that likely marks the end of rapid post-recession growth. In order to produce this high level of volume, automakers turned to incentives to lure customers. The average new vehicle purchase in December, for instance, involved a $33,340 average transaction price, according to ALG, but a $3673 average discount, up 20% compared with December 2015.
Jaguar, which doubled its sales thanks to the brand's first ever SUV and a new entry-level XE sedan, more than doubled its sales to end 2016 as America's fastest-growing auto brand. Ram, up 11% year-over-year, was America's fastest-growing volume brand. On the other end of the spectrum, defunct Scion tumbled hardest and fastest. Ram's corporate siblings – Chrysler, Fiat, and Alfa Romeo – fell 27%, 24%, and 22%, respectively.
