U.S. April 2012 Small SUV Sales Chart Click Any Chart For A Larger View |
This April did have three fewer selling days than April 2011. On a daily sales rate basis, the RAV4 and Tucson, for example, were actually up 10% and 8%, respectively. But the Kia Sportage's harsh 31% slide simply speaks to a bad month in what has so far been something of a bad year. Volkswagen's Tiguan, despite its April struggles, is up 13% through the first one-third of 2012. The Ford Escape, of course, is about to be replaced. The old outgoing Escape is presently forming the majority of inventory.

Elsewhere at Ford, America's top-selling brand, utility vehicle sales were particularly strong in April. The Edge, Expedition, Explorer, and Flex combined for a 13.2% increase, or 3750 more units. 667 of those sales were Explorer Police Interceptors. The Ford PIU outsold the Ford PIS by 120 units.
Over at the Japanese brands, the Armada, Juke, Murano, Pathfinder, Rogue, and Xterra accounted for 26.3% of all Nissan sales. Honda's two remaining utilities were responsible for 29.5% of Honda's U.S. April sales. The popular new CX-5 helped Mazda's shrinking crossover division (the Tribute and CX-7 are bidding America farewell) grab 30.3% of the brand's total April volume.
