Car industry trends towards SUV

[c107]

I got this from the car industry analysis twitter feed. Stats are for USA but I think Australia would be similar, probably hatchback higher and pickup lower.

The move from sedans, wagons and people carriers to SUVs is stark.

Interesting Bryce how the Market is shifting away from Regular Sedans.
Price wise it seems so I was quoted $37,000 for a new VW Caddy Van.!!
And for an immaculate 85,000 Ks Turbo C Class 2010 $8000 as a Trade in.

I would say Pickup in Australia would most certainly be higher . As 3 off the top 10 in sales last few years and 2 off those have been 1 and 2 are pickups in Australia

It’s hard to beat the practicality of an SUV for daily duties. On the weekends however, the special cars rule!

It's a simple equation

Sedans and Wagons have gone the SUV way, whilst Sport Cars (to an extend) have been replaced by Pick Ups, which have also replaced Sedan-based Utes.
