Of the nearly 188,000 new vehicles sold in Minnesota last year, over 15 percent were Chevys. The market share of total Minnesota vehicle registrations found:
- Chevrolet: 15.3%
- Ford: 12.2%
- Toyota: 10.2%
- Honda: 8.6%
- Subaru: 6.7%
- Hyundai: 5.1%
- GMC: 5.0%
- Jeep: 4.7%
- Kia: 4.2%
- Ram: 3.9%
Overall, new vehicle sales were up 11.5% from 2022.
Electric vehicles were hot sellers, with nearly 5,000 new Teslas hitting the road, up 40% from 2022. Newcomer Rivian sold 538 new vehicles, a 166% increase over 2022 sales.
Meanwhile, car sales continue to decline. In 2011, 42% of vehicle sales were cars. Last year, car sales accounted for a little more than one in every ten deals.
Officials believe the growth in vehicle sales is due in large part to dealerships catching up on supply after the COVID-19 pandemic.
