Sales in USA by segment and body in 2021
- Sales of passenger cars in the United States in 2021 (which here include SUVs and MPVs while the American classification integrates these vehicles into utilities) show that the D-segment and the C-segment are now very close to each other. other in terms of market share and together accounted for more than 80% of the US market last year.
- The D-segment remained relatively stable between 2007 and 2021, but fell from 37% to 46% of the market between 2005 and 2010, taking over a lot of sales from the E-segment. The E-segment saw its market share fall by 30% in 2005 to 17.5% in 2009 and stabilized at 15% of the market in the following years, until today. The C segment has steadily increased between 2005 and 2021, rising from 30% to 40%. Finally, the B segment suddenly dropped in 2020 and 2021 and this segment seems destined to disappear from the US market, like the very marginal A segment on this market.
- In terms of bodywork, sedans which had relatively resisted the growth of SUVs in the early 2000s, suddenly stalled from 2015, falling from 55% of the market to less than 30% in 2021.
- The SUVs which had reached a level of 40% of the US market between 2011 and 2014 saw their sales take off abruptly (by the arrival of a new offer) from 2015, going from 40% of the market to nearly 70% in 2021.
- There remain monospaces (MPVs), whose sales have been declining steadily since the early 2000s, falling from 10% of the market in 2005 to less than 3% in 2021. These vehicles have been gradually supplanted by SUVs.
