The 10 best-selling SUVs and crossovers in Canada
Statistics for the first quarter of 2022.
Nearly six out of ten new cars bought in Canada are SUVs and crossovers, and this is normal for the local car market. We recently wrote about how Canada is doing with public transportation and snow clearance in small communities. Sales of SUVs and crossovers declined in the first quarter of 2022, but not as significantly as car sales overall.
10th place. Toyota Highlander: 4,448 cars, an increase in sales of 2%.
The most popular car in Canada with three rows of seats. It is usually purchased as standard equipment.
9th place. Hyundai Tucson: 4,449 cars, 8% drop in sales.
72 percent of Hyundai sales in Canada are SUVs and crossovers. There are two models of the brand on this list, so in total it comes out that it is the most popular in the segment in question.
8th place. Nissan Rogue: 4,648 cars, 50% drop in sales.
Last year, the Nissan Rogue was in third place in the ranking. But alas, the brand's sales fell by 13%, and this particular model was displaced by the Nissan Qashqai.
7th place. Jeep Grand Cherokee: 4,979 cars, 10% increase in sales.

This model celebrated its 30th anniversary last month. A timeless classic with many modifications, including the three-row. Jeep brand used cars are also very popular in Canada, check out review 2014 and compare to this list.
6th place. Nissan Qashqai: 5,169 cars, sales growth of 73%.
Until 2019, it was the sales leader among small-capacity crossovers, but few expected it to return to the top 10. Compared to the Nissan Rogue, this model is cheaper to operate and spends less fuel on the highway.
5th place. Hyundai Kona: 5,363 cars, 22% drop in sales.
This is the car that has overtaken all other small crossovers and has been in the top since 2019. It is a compact and versatile car.
4th place. Mazda CX-5: 5,442 cars, 15% decrease in sales.
One in every four of the brand's ten cars sold in Canada. Soon this model will be joined (and possibly replaced) by the Mazda CX-50, longer and wider, with a more powerful engine.
3rd place. Jeep Wrangler: 6,642 cars, sales up 47%.
This Jeep was originally produced in Canada — from 1987 to 1992, at the now-closed Brampton, Ontario plant. Last year, the Jeep Wrangler was in eighth place in the ranking. The only frame SUV on this list. It wastes a lot of fuel, but it will go anywhere.
2nd place. Honda CR-V: 7,828 cars, 32% drop in sales.
This model is produced in Ontario, and for the Canadian buyer it is a very good car in terms of value for money. At the end of 2022, they promise to release the sixth generation of the model on the market.
1st place. Toyota RAV4: 9,899 cars, 37% drop in sales.
The leader of the Canadian SUV market since 2016, also produced in Ontario. Even with the loss of buyers, the Toyota RAV4 is 26% ahead of its nearest competitor. In 2019, we compared purchase and maintenance costs of the Toyota RAV4 in Canada and Ukraine.
