Additionally, HCPI’s strong 2017 performance was boosted by its December sales feat amounting to 4,961 units. That’s a whopping 77% increase over the same period last year, and the highest monthly sales record the brand has achieved in the country.
Topping the chart is the City. During the entirety of 2017, the subcompact sedan posted a total of 9,430 units sold. Not far behind is the BR-V 7-seat subcompact crossover’s record of 7,212 units. Third on the list is the Civic compact sedan, which was sold 4,146 times last year.
