World Best Selling Compact Cars 2016. The top 50 https://www.focus2move.com/world-best-selling-compact-cars-2016/ Tue, 10 Jan 2017 09:25:30 +0000 http://focus2move.com/?p=30540 World Best Selling Compact Cars 2016 ranking again led by the Toyota Corolla while the Toyota Prius joined the Top 10, first time ever.

World Best Selling Compact Cars 2016 ranking again led by the Toyota Corolla while the Toyota Prius joined the Top 10, first time ever. Volkswagen Golf was second while Hyundai Elantra was new on podium.

The largest car segment in the World had ever been the called “compact” or “C segment” (under the EU segmentation) and it was the largest in the 2016 as well, when global sales had been reported at 16.7 million units (+0.5%)., the highest level ever.

The global duel between Toyota and Volkswagen as brand is in place in this segment as well. Indeed, while the leader is Toyota Corolla, with data including both sedan and hatchback sales, the second model, the Volkswagen Golf, includes only sales for Hatch (5 doors and wagon) and not the sedan, sold under the nameplate “Jetta”. Adding Jetta sales to the Golf, Volkswagen would lead the rank.

However, Toyota is selling many different models in this segment a part the Corolla, to better fit with local consumer’s demand (and imagination…) including the Auris, for Europe, and Hybrid Prius, last year entered in the top 10, first time.

So, for the 2016 again, the best compact car sold in the World was the glorious the Toyota Corolla with 1.313.000 sales, down 1.9% from the 2015 level, still the all time record.

In second place the Volkswagen Golf with 1.002.000 sales (-4.9%), peanuts over the 1 million level for the second year in a row.

A new model advanced in the third step of the podium, the Hyundai Elantra, with its record sales of 780.000 units (+3.0%)

Fourth was the Ford Focus, down 1 spot, with 735.000 units (-11.5%) ahead of the Honda Civic, up 1 spot, with 668.000 (+18.7%) and the Volkswagen Jetta, leader in the sedan sub-segment with 611.000 sales (+8.6%)

In seventh place the Mazda3 with 463.000 (+1.1%) followed by the Chevrolet Cruze, down 3 spots, with 456.000 units (-18.7%), the Skoda Octavia with 441.000(+3.5%), and in 10th place the Toyota Prius with 384.000 (+38.8%).

World Best Selling Compact Cars in 2015 dominated by the Toyota Corolla that’s running to a new all-time record sales for a single model. The Volkswagen Golf overtook Ford Focus. The new Ford Escort landed in 18th place.

Best Selling Compact Cars

A compact car (North America), or small family car in British acceptation, is a classification of cars that are larger than a subcompact car but smaller than a mid-size car, equating roughly to the C-segment in Europe.

Current compact car size, as defined by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), for the US and for international models respectively, is approximately 4,100 mm (161 in) and 4,450 mm (175 in) long for hatchback, or 4,400 mm (173 in) and 4,750 mm (187 in) long for convertibles, sedans (saloon) or station wagons (estate car).

Multi-purpose vehicles and sport utility vehicles based on small family cars (often called compact MPVs and compact SUVs) have similar sizes, ranging from 4,200 mm (165 in) to 4,500 mm (177 in) in the U.S., and from 4,400 mm (173 in) to 4,700 mm (185 in) in international-based models.

In Japan, any vehicle that is over 3.4 m (11.2 ft) long, 1.48 m (4.9 ft) wide, 2 m (6.6 ft) high and with an engine over 660 cc (40 cu in) but is under 4.7 m (15.4 ft) long, 1.7 m (5.6 ft) wide, 2 m (6.6 ft) high and with engines at or under 2,000 cc (120 cu in) is considered a compact vehicle. The dimension standards are absolute, meaning special consideration is not made for SUVs, CUVs, minivans, station wagons or hatchback.”
