Although sales of Canada's top-selling car, the third-ranked Honda Civic, is selling more often this year than in 2013, overall car sales fell 7% in March and are down 8% in Q1, according to Automotive News.

Minivans, led by the sixth-ranked Dodge Grand Caravan, were up 13% in March 2014 and generated 5.4% of the auto industry's sales volume. 

12 of Canada's 30 best-selling vehicles in March 2014 were SUVs or crossovers of some kind. That's up from ten in March 2013, when the new Toyota RAV4 was fresh-out-of-the-oven and it led even the Ford Escape as the leading utility vehicle.
