Chart Of The Day: Will The CR-V Eventually Be Honda’s Accord?

Accord CR-V sales chartIn a manner of speaking, this chart is nothing more than anecdotal evidence. But it's also evidence that's been collected nationwide over the span of  a decade from one of America's largest auto sellers.

Proof that America is gradually moving away from traditional passenger cars to "crossovers" is better seen in a glance of the complete numbers for all vehicles. But the CR-V/Accord relationship is a useful one for telling a story.

As recently as 2006, American Honda sold more than two Accords for every CR-V. The CR-V's reign as America's favourite utility vehicle, suspended only briefly in 2011, began in 2007, a year in which Honda sold 1.8 Accords per CR-V. Fast forward to the first seven months of 2014 and Honda sells 1.2 copies of the Accord, America's second-best-selling car, for every CR-V.
