G5 outsold the Focus? Mazda3 outsold the Camry? CObalt and G5 combined were only beaten by the Civic? I love Canada.

How many cars total sell in Canada each year ? In Australia we cracked 1,000,000 for the first time in 2007.

1,000,001.



Not sure... I know someone mentioned it in a thread a while back... and what I thought was cool was that when I divided the population by the number of cars sold, both countries were exactly 16%... a simplified but interesting comparison between the percentage of the population that bought vehicles in 2007. I'll try and dig that thread up.

I'm very surprised by the delta twins selling so many!This should bode well for the re-design that's comeing if these still sell so well.

That's pretty sad. Go G5!
What if you include trucks?

What's so sad about it?

Gas is over $4 a gallon in Canada, so it's no wonder that the fuel sipping Civic leads the pack.

GM has always done pretty well in this market, so it's no surprise that the Cobalt/G5 sell in high numbers, even with the slightly poorer fuel economy.

this surprised me as well, especially the mazda 3.

this surprised me as well, especially the mazda 3.

I am not. if you would drive the 3 you would know why. its a great car, but the cobalt is much more peppy. other than that, 3 all the way.

Imagine how many they would sell if they had a better interior, standard ABS and better mileage.

I think the 0% for 72 months is partialally driving demand.

 

[ChevyOptra5]

In reality you could pretty much lump the G5 and Cobalt together and take second place.

it wasn't 0 for 72 months all last year, i bought my g5 in june and the rate gm was giving was 2.4% for 60 months, 72 wasn't even an option for me (tho i wouldn't do a car loan for than long none the less

focus gets standard stability control for 09 in the US i think. do cobalt and G5 get that?
