Mexico is part of North America, but the automotive landscape is different than the ones in Canada and in the United States. Very different.
Among the 20 best-selling vehicles in Mexico in 2017, there’s only one pickup truck, while small and affordable cars are the hot ticket. That’s quite a contrast compared to our market, where the most popular vehicles year after year are large pickups.
Thanks to their accessible prices, the most sought-after brands are Nissan with seven models in the top 20 list, Chevrolet with four, Volkswagen with three and Kia with two. Honda, Ford, Toyota and Mazda share the four remaining positions on the chart.
Here are Mexico’s 2017 top 20 best-selling vehicles. Don’t be surprised if you’ve never seen some of these models before, or if some remind you of a bygone era.
