AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/19 Report--

Recently, the US media released a list of the top 10 models produced and sold in the United States in the first half of 2019. What is unexpected is that Toyota Corolla, which has won the championship many times in the past, has only achieved the tenth place. However, none of the German brands that are popular in China are on the list. So which models are the most popular for American consumers? Let's take a look.

NO.10--Toyota Corolla

First half sales: 152868

Corresponding model in domestic market: FAW Toyota Corolla

Compared with the new Corolla in the domestic market, the North American market ushered in a new Corolla as early as last October, but compared with the previous improvement in all aspects, the new model was born in the Toyota TNGA architecture, the operability and experience have been greatly improved. But the new Corolla is not in line with the preferences of American consumers, one of the main reasons for the decline in sales in the North American market.

NO.9--Honda Civic

First half sales: 169172

Corresponding models in the domestic market: Dongfeng Honda Civic

Since the launch of the Ten-Generation Civic in the United States in 2016, the model has been popular with young consumers and has been on the TOP10 list of the best-selling models almost every month. Compared with the domestic 1.0T and 1.5T power combinations, the North American market offers a combination of 2.0L self-priming and 1.5T turbines. Today, the Ten-Generation Civic has just undergone a small change in the American market, and its relatively low price is also popular with young users.

NO.8--Chevrolet Equinox

First half sales: 174157

Corresponding models in the domestic market: SAIC GM Chevrolet explorer

For some reason, many Chinese consumers have always thought that Americans don't like the SUV. In fact, the SUV, which has a high sitting posture, spacious space and can pull and run, is also a favorite model for American consumers, and the Chevrolet Equinox is one of them. Although Chevrolet explorer sales are mediocre in the domestic market, in the United States, its average sales of nearly 30,000 units a month in the first half of the year are the envy of domestic Chevrolet 4S stores.

NO.7--Nissan Rogue

First half sales: 175267

The corresponding model in the domestic market: Dongfeng Nissan Xiaoke

Nissan Rogue will not be a stranger to everyone, but if Nissan is free, then it is too kind. In view of its cheap human operation, durable and unbreakable, although the body size is a little smaller than the compact SUV, there is no doubt about its practicality and is popular with many American consumers.

NO.6--Toyota Camry

First half sales: 176008

Corresponding model in domestic market: GAC Toyota Camry

Although the oil price in the United States is relatively cheap, but many people still care about fuel consumption, and the Camry, although derived from the TNGA architecture, has a specially optimized suspension with softer suspension and lighter throttle brakes, in line with its comfortable positioning of a medium-sized scooter.

NO.5--Honda CR-V

First half sales: 176994

Corresponding model in domestic market: Dongfeng Honda CR-V

Toyota's engine technology is very strong, and the ride space is also very good. Although the CR-V is a compact SUV, its interior space performance is better than many intermediate SUV. The American version of CR-V 's 1.5T engine and CVT speed change work together to create a 2.4L power effect and a better fuel consumption performance.

NO.4--Toyota RAV4

First half sales: 200610

Corresponding model in domestic market: FAW Toyota RAV4

RAV4 in North America and other regions are similar to Wuling Hongguang, no matter where it exists, and relying on Toyota Chaigao product quality stability, not bad has become the reason sought after by American consumers.

NO.3--Chevrolet Silverado

Sales in the first half: 255463 vehicles

The corresponding model in the domestic market: Chevrolet Solod

The Chevrolet Silverado is a popular pickup truck in North America. With monthly sales of only two digits in China, it sold 255000 vehicles in the United States in half a year, with an average monthly sales of 42500, which is higher than that of China's best-selling Harvard H6, which shows its appeal to American consumers. And its 6.2L V8 engine is America's favorite high-displacement self-priming engine, which is almost perfect except for fuel consumption.

NO.2--Ram Trucks

First half sales: 299480

Corresponding models in the domestic market: none

The brand RAM should be relatively unfamiliar to everyone. It is often seen in American TV dramas, but it is hardly seen in China. It belongs to the famous Chrysler and has a 5.7L V8 engine, the famous HEMI engine, hidden in its huge cabin. Of course, don't expect it to save much fuel, anyway, there is only one demand from American consumers, that is, enough power.

NO.1--Ford Fmuri 150

First half sales: 448398

Corresponding model in domestic market: Ford Fmur150

Perhaps even Ford did not expect that the revamped Ford Fmur150 would be the top seller in the United States for half a year. The 3.5T twin-turbocharged engine replaced the old 6.2L V8 engine, and the underperforming 6AT gearbox was replaced by a brand new 10AT.

Although they are also big automobile countries, the consumption patterns of the United States and China are quite different here, especially for the two best-selling models. It is also surprising that the Corolla, which was ranked high in the past, fell to No. 10 this time. It is also difficult to understand that all German cars have been wiped out. It seems that the consumption concept of China is different from that of other countries.
