Hi All: This is just a quick update while I am building the individual and overall results for the US' 2024 Automotive sales. 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV GM retains its #1 ranking in terms of US sales. All the while the Chevrolet Silverado EV is easily the best EV Pickup available today. Top 15 2024 US OEM Sales GM - 2,705,080 vehicles sold in 2024, up 4.3% over the 2,594,698 sold during all of 2023 Toyota - 2,332,623 vehicles sold in 2024, up 3.7% over the 2,248,477 sold during all of 2023 Ford - 2,078,832 vehicles sold in 2024, up 4.2% over the 1,995,912 sold during all of 2023 Honda - 1,423,857 vehicles sold in 2024, up 8.8% over the 1,308,186 sold during all of 2023 Stellantis - 1,303,570 vehicles sold in 2024, down 14.6% below the 1,527,090 sold during all of 2023 Nissan - 924,008 vehicles sold in 2024, up 2.8% over the 898,796 sold during all of 2023 Hyundai - 836,802 vehicles sold in 2024, up 4.4% over the 801,195 sold during all of 2023 Kia - 796,488 vehicles sold in 2024, up 1.8% below the 782,451 sold during all of 2023 Subaru - 667,725 vehicles sold in 2024, up 5.6% over the 632,086 sold during all of 2023 Tesla - 633,762 vehicles sold in 2024, down 5.6% below the 671,616 sold during all of 2023 Mazda - 424,382 vehicles sold in 2024, up 16.8% over the 363,354 sold during all of 2023 VW - 379,178 vehicles sold in 2024, up 15.2% over the 329,029 sold during all of 2023 Mercedes - 374,101 vehicles sold in 2024, up 0.3% over the 373,103 sold during all of 2023 BMW - 371,346 vehicles sold in 2024, up 2.5% over the 362,244 sold during all of 2023 Audi - 196,576 vehicles sold in 2024, down 14.0% below the 228,550 sold during all of 2023 On the 2024 US OEM sales front, the big news was Stellantis falling from #3 to #4, now settling in behind Honda for the first time ever due to its terrible 2024 showing here in the US. Tesla has fallen to #10 just behind Subaru while Mazda leapt two places to #11 placing both VW and Mercedes in its rear view. VW also jumped up two spots to #12, now ahead of both Mercedes and BMW. 2025 Toyota RAV4 PHEV A name change from "Prime" with the next gen set for a 2026 MY release.

RAM has fallen precipitously from its decades long, former #3 spot to #5 with Toyota’s RAV4 and Honda’s CRV now outpacing it. Tesla’s Model Y fell two places from #4 to #6 as the RAV4 and CRV passed it in 2024. As expected, Honda’s award winning compact Civic moved into the #10 spot with the value-oriented Corolla falling short of this year’s list by just over 9,000 vehicle sales. 2025 Ford Mustang Mach-E Ford's EVs had a good 2024 in terms of sales although the pair are still losing $s per vehicle sold. And onto the EV sales finish... Top 10 2024 US EV Model Sales Tesla Model Y - 372,613 vehicles sold during 2024, down 6.6% below the 398,782 sold in 2023 Tesla Model 3 - 189,903 vehicles sold during 2024, down 17.4% below the 230,015 sold in 2023 Ford Mustang Mach-E - 51,745 vehicles sold during 2024, up 26.9% over the 40,771 sold in 2023 Hyundai Ioniq5 - 44,400 vehicles sold during 2024, up 30.9% over the 33,918 sold in 2023 Tesla Cybertruck - 38,965 vehicles sold during 2024 vs 0 sold in 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning - 33,510 vehicles sold during 2024, up 38.7% over the 24,165 sold in 2023 Honda Prologue - 33,017 vehicles sold during 2024 vs 0 sold in 2023 Chevrolet Equinox - 28,874 vehicles sold during 2024, up 6163% over the 461 sold in 2023 Cadillac Lyriq - 28,402 vehicles sold during 2024, up 210.3% above the 9,154 sold in 2023 Rivian R1S - 26,934 vehicles sold during 2024, up 23.4% over the 21,831 sold in 2023 2025 Tesla Model Y A new year and finally a refreshed design. Maybe it will help slow the sales slide? Through all of 2024, Stellantis took the largest hit with not just the sales decline but in lockstep, the market share falloff of 1.6% shows how poorly it performed last year. Mazda's 0.4% and GMs 0.3% increase were well deserved. With 20 years’ worth of US Automotive sales data to rely upon, 2024's US Automotive Sales of 15.92 million units increased by 2.5% over the 15.53 million sold in 2023. That total was the highest achieved since Covid decimated the global economy back in 2020. The 2024 US sales totals were unfortunately nowhere near the 17 million plus unit peaks in 2005 and 2015 - 2019. Estimates to reach 16.5 million in 2024 are to me a bit optimistic as Government downsizing – Government employment disappearing, is going to be a noticeable drag on consumer spending and the second largest purchase decision most make is not going to be immune.
