Honda Has the #1 and #2 Best Selling Cars of 2016

GRANDVILLE, Mich.––It seems as if we cannot report often enough on all of Honda's achievements this year! 2016 has seemingly been a "bad" year for many; however, Honda has had a fantastic year by consistently achieving auto awards, growing sales month over month, and becoming America's fastest growing automaker in retail sales according to Automotive News. This week, with time still remaining in 2016, Honda has announced it has the #1 and #2 best selling cars of 2016.

Can you guess which Honda vehicles climbed to the top? 

The #1 Best Selling SUV title is officially going to the Honda CR-V again! This will mark the 7th year of straight sales gains and marks the 21st year of being America's best selling SUV. We're looking forward to seeing even more gains thanks to the recent redesign and engine change for the 2017 CR-V model - there are just a few on our lot if you're interested in checking them out!

The #1 Best Selling minivan title is going to the beloved family toter - the Honda Odyssey. The will mark the 7th year of being a retail buyer favorite! Seven really seems to be Honda's lucky number. The Odyssey has stayed relatively the same in the 2017 model, but the 2018 model soon to be revealed at NAIAS 2017 promises some big changes.

There's also much recognition to be made for the Honda Civic which had the best sales performance in 44 years with individual car buyers. The Honda Accord posted a 4th year of sales leadership in the midsize sedan class. 

"We want to thank our customers for the trust they've placed in Honda, which is the basis for everything we do," said Jeff Conrad, senior vice president and general manager of the Honda Division. "Retail sales are the results of customers voting with their wallets and pocketbooks, and we think that's the only true measure of customer demand and product appeal."

Overall the Civic, CR-V, and Accord will achieve a trio of highest retail selling vehicle in the entire auto industry in the U.S., equaling more than 1 million units for the 5th year in a row.
