With 2012 well underway, the compact and midsize Crossover/SUV sales race has just begun.
Compact Crossover/SUVs

2) Ford Escape – 17,259 Sold
Trailing not far behind the Honda CR-V was the Ford Escape, which is likely moving in such numbers due the 2013 Escape’s impending roll out. In 2011, the Ford Escape outsold the CR-V, earning it the number five slot of the top ten vehicles sold in the U.S. – the Honda CR-V didn’t make the cut last year. Thus far in 2012, Escape sales were up 23.5 percent year-over-year, and with the 2013 Escape on its way we only see the battle for first heating up.

2) Ford Explorer – 9966 Sold
Hot on the tail of the Grand Cherokee is the new Ford Explorer. Ford sold 9966 Explorers last month, which represented an impressive increase of 35.6 percent. The Explorer was also the only SUV other than the Grand Cherokee to post a year-over-year increase in January, every other model on this saw a drop compared to last year. |

3) Ford Edge – 8315 Sold
Rounding out the podium is yet another Ford; the sporty-ish two-row, midsized Edge was the third-best-selling midsize SUV/crossover of January 2012. Ford’s 8315 Edges represented a slight drop compared to last year, with Edge sales being down 6.8 percent. |
