The US SUV market by carmaker in Q1-2021
- SUVs represent 53.5% of the US market in the first quarter of 2021, to 2,092,401 units, which has been growing steadily for twenty years.
- Who are the best sellers of SUVs in the US market today? The Japanese carmaker Toyota is already overtaking Chevrolet and Ford in the sedan category, and this superiority in sales figures will only increase with the planned or effective end of the Big Three sedans. Against all expectations, Toyota also surpasses Chevrolet and Ford in the SUV category, and quite easily as the Japanese carmaker produced 50 000 units more than its two American competitors, in the first quarter of 2021, or 200,000 units on an annual basis. Toyota could sell one million SUVs in the United States over the whole of 2021.
- Chevrolet and Ford are therefore now supplanting Toyota only in the pick-up category, where Japanese carmakers still have some difficulty to impose their products.
- Chevrolet and Ford hold second and third place in the US SUV market. Jeep (a subsidiary of the Stellantis group) is in fourth position, as their entire range of models is made up of SUVs. Three Japanese carmakers are placed in the following three places: Honda, Nissan and Subaru. Then follow the two Korean carmakers Hyundai and Kia.
- The last places are occupied by Mazda, Volkswagen, GMC and then by Premium brands, such as Lexus, Buick, Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Cadillac, Tesla, Acura, Lincoln, Land-Rover, Volvo, Infiniti and Porsche.
