 Through the first seven months of 2013, sales of GM's Lambda platform trio, which includes the Traverse, Enclave, and more popular GMC Acadia, are down 2.4% to 6435 units. Ford has sold 6110 Explorers this year, a 1% increase, plus an additional 1695 Flexes.
All 86 SUVs Ranked By July 2013 & YTD Canadian Sales
Hyundai's latest crossover, the Santa Fe XL, has recorded increasingly higher-volume months since the XL went on sale in March, rising 132% from March's 88 to in 204 in April, 62% in May, 16% in June, and 24% in July.
All of the vehicles mentioned to this point are, at the very least, available with three rows of seating. The Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, a viable challenger for both the Ford Escape and the Ford Edge, sells more often than all of the three-row crossovers in this post. Jeep's Wrangler, which is available as a very tidily-packaged SUV and as a roomy Unlimited SUV, is more popular than the three-row midsizers shown here, as well.

 Ford Escape volume plunged in July 2013, but sales are up 6% through the first seven months of 2013. A year ago, Ford posted its highest-volume Escape sales month of 2012. Honda CR-V sales shot up 39% in July, and the Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, Mitsubishi Outlander, Nissan Rogue, Subaru Forester, Toyota RAV4, and Volkswagen Tiguan all reported meaningful gains. Mazda CX-5 sales more than doubled, year-over-year. General Motors sold 976 copies of their little crossover twins, the Buick Encore and Chevrolet Trax. General Motors also sold 2452 Equinoxes and Terrains.
Not only do the Equinox and Terrain easily outsell the Encore and Trax, but the new Mitsubishi Outlander outsold the RVR last month. Nissan sold more than four Rogues per Juke in July. And Subaru's Forester was nearly twice as popular as the XV Crosstrek. And the Mini Countryman? Very little sells less often than Mini's four-door.

^ not including 478 Santa Fe XL sales (1468 YTD) which are shown exclusively in the midsize SUV category. GCBC isn't here to break down segments, an impossible task for any group, but to display sales data for the sake of comparison. The more ways sales data can be displayed, the better, right? This explains why you'll see the Santa Fe and Sorento listed with midsize SUVs - they're stuck in between in terms of size - as well as vehicles like the Wrangler and Xterra listed both here and there. The Buick Encore and Subaru XV Crosstrek and their gang are also listed with mainstream cars, because they're sitting on a fence between SUVs and traditional passenger cars.

The nine cars you see here compiled only 1140 sales in total last month, equal to just 0.7% of the overall new vehicle market. The Honda Civic outsold this whole category of vehicle by more than five-to-one. In the United States, this vehicle subset - including the Hyundai Genesis Coupe and Azera - outsold the Civic by 15,218 units while generating 3.6% of the overall auto industry's volume. Through seven months, Canadian sales of the Buick LaCrosse, Chevrolet Impala, Chrysler 300, Ford Taurus, Hyundai Genesis sedan, and Nissan Maxima have tumbled. In July, the LaCrosse, Impala, 300, Taurus, and Genesis all reported declines. In four months, Kia Canada has sold just 62 copies of GCBC's current tester, the Cadenza.
Canadians simply aren't going to spend this kind of money on cars that don't wear premium badges, and they may not spend this kind of money on cars at all. For the price of a top-end, un-optioned 2014 Impala, an Audi Q5 is probably more in line with current market desires.
