While SUV sales continue to fall short behind passenger vehicles and bakkies, South African motorists are currently spoiled for choice in the sports utility and crossover market.<\/p>\n

This is according to Naamsa’s most recent sales figures which found that\u00a0new vehicle sales at 49,222 units had increased by 3,091 units or 6.7% from the 46,131 vehicles sold in August last year.<\/p>\n

The biggest gain was seen in new light commercial vehicles, bakkies and mini bus sales, with 14,834 units sold during August.<\/p>\n

This represents a\u00a0substantial gain of 1,448 vehicles or an improvement of 10.8% compared to the 13,386 light commercial vehicles sold during the corresponding month last year.<\/p>\n

This is on top of the improvement in light commercial vehicle sales in recent months.<\/p>\n

The bestselling vehicle in the compact-crossover segment was Ford’s EcoSport<\/strong> with 1,071 vehicles sold.<\/p>\n

Toyota’s Rav4<\/strong> dominated the medium-crossover segment with 651 vehicles sold, while the manufacturer also dominated the large-crossover segment with the Toyota Fortuner<\/strong> selling 1,070 units.<\/p>\n

Below are the best-selling Crossovers and SUVs across every major segment for the month of August.<\/p>\n
