As of June 2024, pickup trucks continue to dominate US sales, but there are some interesting trends towards SUVs and electric vehicles:
Trucks Rule: The Ford F-Series remains king with over 152,000 units sold so far this year, followed by the Chevrolet Silverado at over 127,000. Ram trucks also hold a strong position.
Toyota’s Strength: Toyota holds two strong spots with the ever-popular RAV4 SUV exceeding 124,000 units sold and the Camry sedan maintaining its dominance among non-trucks at nearly 78,400 units (although this is for the outgoing 2024 model, the new hybrid-only 2025 model’s impact is yet to be seen).
Rise of SUVs and Crossovers: SUVs and crossovers are gaining significant ground. The Honda CR-V, Nissan Rogue, Jeep Grand Cherokee, and Subaru Forester are all popular choices with over 45,000 units sold each.
Tesla on the Rise: Electric vehicles are making a strong showing. Tesla, though estimated figures, has both the Model Y and Model 3 exceeding 40,000 units sold.This is just a snapshot of the top contenders. Here are some resources for further exploration:
