A few days ago, overseas statistical agencies released sales data for the Canadian pickup truck market in 2021. As a country in North America, Canada's pickup truck sales have been classified throughout North America, which has led to Canada's low presence in the global pickup truck market. In 2021, the annual sales volume of the Canadian pickup truck market reached 335622 units, compared with 377,540 units in 2020, a year-on-year decline of 11.1%, and the overall sales volume may be surpassed by Thailand.
The Ford F-Series, Ram Pickup truck and GMC Sierra three major American models occupy the top three positions, the Ford F-Series has occupied the top position in the Canadian pickup truck sales list for many consecutive years, and North America has always been the base of for the continuous development and evolution of Ford pickup trucks. In 2021, Ford's F-series pickup truck sales reached 116402 units, down 9.52% from 2020. The decline in sales of Ford pickup trucks this year is largely due to the epidemic, chip shortages and other problems that have led to successive factory shutdowns affecting overall production capacity. At present, Ford's F-150, Raptor, Ranger three products have been upgraded, the new product MMaverick has already begun to deliver, the future Ford will still maintain the status of pickup truck sales leader.
In 2021, Ram pickup trucks sold 73,477 new cars in the Canadian market, down 12.19% from last year. Ram launched the Ram TRX last year, which is enough to shake the raptor performance pickup truck king status, so that Ford feels great pressure, this year Ram is rumored to launch small and medium-sized pickup products, its first electric pickup truck Ram 1500 EV is also set for 2024, a full range of ford to launch an impact.
In 2021, GMC Sierra achieved a strategic victory in Canada, selling 53,757 new vehicles in the whole year, an increase of 4.36% over last year, and is one of the few brands in the Canadian pickup market with sales growth. GMC Sierra has been updated in October last year, the overall product force is more outstanding, GMC also released a Hummer EV pickup truck last year, with strong performance and rich configuration, has officially entered the delivery period, GMC Sierra electric pickup truck will also be released in the near future, I believe that GMC brand pickup sales still have room to rise.
Chevrolet Solod's sales in the past two years have not been optimistic, the US market has been overtaken by Ram, and the Canadian market has been surpassed by GMC Sierra. In 2021, Chevrolet Solod sold 36,419 new cars in the Canadian market, down 30.98% year-on-year, and the market ranking fell from third to fourth. Chevrolet has not made much movement in recent years, and the 2022 Chevrolet Sorod model as a mid-term modification product, its upgrade point is lackluster relative to Ram and Ford, even if the launch of the Sorod ZR2 off-road performance version has not attracted widespread attention.
Toyota Tacoma is one of the few Japanese pickup trucks that can rank among the top sellers in the North American market, with cumulative sales of 14,879 units in Canada in 2021, down 12.20% year-on-year. Ford Ranger last year in the Canadian market sales of 11,200 units, an increase of 3.32% year-on-year, a new generation of Ranger has also been officially released, I believe that with the blessing of the new car, Ranger can shorten the gap between the Ranger and Tacoma.
Nissan Frontierier and Honda Ridgeline, which are also medium-sized pickups, also performed well, both delivering year-on-year growth report cards, with growth rates of 26.64% and 3.62% respectively, and both products have been upgraded in the past two years. The sales results of the other three American mid-size pickup trucks, Jeep Gladiator, Chevrolet Kurod and GMC Canyon, are not very optimistic, the gladiator sold 4343 new cars in the whole year, down 3.04% year-on-year; Kurod sold 5572 new cars in 2021, down 16.19%; Canyon sold 4865 new cars in 2021, down 3.28% year-on-year.
The two major Japanese full-size pickup trucks, toyota Tantu and Nissan Titan, are not only struggling in the U.S. market, but also have poor sales in the Canadian market. The Nissan Titan sold 414 new vehicles, down 66.01% year-on-year, the largest decline in the Canadian market in 2021. Toyota Tantu sold 6654 vehicles in the whole year, down 39.80% year-on-year, and was the second largest model with the decline.
The two emerging load-bearing pickups, the Ford Maverick and hyundai Santa Cruz, show good momentum. Ford Maverick has gained widespread consumer attention by relying on The Ford endorsement, and its reputation is even better than that of the new generation Ranger, and it is expected to set off a new trend in the US pickup truck market in the future. As a pure SUV pickup truck, the hyundai Santa Cruz is also gradually increasing in monthly sales.
