Top 5 best selling cars in the USA

To commemorate Independence Day in America, we’re revealing the most popular cars in the States. Well, when we say ‘cars’ we mean pick-up trucks because they dominate the top three, with a couple of non-American vehicles in the mix. Here they are in order according to US motoring website, Edmunds.

5. Honda CR-V

Back when it launched in 1995, Honda said that the CR-V's name stood for "Comfortable Runabout Vehicle". After 25 years on the market, we can't disagree: The CR-V is a comfortable family runabout.

4. Toyota RAV4

The RAV4 is the best-selling passenger vehicle that isn’t a full-size truck and it's responsible for kicking off the SUV craze. The name stands for “Recreational Activity Vehicle”.

3. Ram 1500/2500/3500

The Ram name only showed up on a pickup truck in 1981, making the Ram 1500 technically a millennial. It's also comfortable and capable, winning Edmund’s award as the top-rated truck in 2019 and 2020.

2. Chevrolet Silverado

The very first Chevy pickup truck from 1918 came without a bed, and buyers had to install their own. Thankfully, today's Chevrolet Silverado comes with everything you need in a full-size pickup.

1. Ford F-Series
