Fiat Sales for July 2017

Fiat 500 USA Flag

Fiat sales for July showed a slight increase for 500 and 500X models compared to the previous month in June. Fiat 500L MPV and 124 Spider July sales took a dip compared to June, keeping both months nearly dead even.

Fiat 500L on the town


Overall, Fiat sold a total of 2,244 cars last month, which is down 18% compared to the 2,738 sold last July. So far this year Fiat sales are running a steady 13% below last year.

This ties in with the subcompact car market being down 20 % and the minicar market being nearly 50% off of last year's pace.* Car buyers continue to flock towards much larger SUV and crossovers while passenger cars and smaller models stay in the crosshairs. With these larger models being more profitable to make to begin with, plus the strong market, there isn't much relief heading towards the small car market anytime soon.
