Lately, Nissan has seen great both month-to-month and year-to-year sales growth sales numbers in the U.S. market (which obviously includes us here at Lithia Nissan of Ames). This past July was no exception, as the sales numbers for it are in, and overall, the Japanese brand saw a 10.9 percent increase over July of 2012's numbers.
Here's how the numbers looked last month for the Nissan Division:
- Made a total of 109,041 deliveries
- This is a 10.9 percent increase over last year's 98,314 units sold
- This marks a new July record for this division
Nissan North America did quite well last month, too, posting a total of no less than 101,279 sales in July, which is a 16.8 percent increase over last year's number.
So which models were the most popular? The heavy hitters last month were no real surprise, as they're incredibly popular with our customers here in the Ames, IA area: the Nissan Altima, Versa, Pathfinder, and Rogue.
Last, but not least, we'd like to point to the all-electric LEAF, which sold enough models to set a new sales record that is 371.9 percent better than last year's.
