2019 shocker: Spark takes the lead
Shocker: Just tallied up the 2019 Canadian Micra/Mirage/Spark sales, and the Spark beat them all. In fact, Spark just had its best year in Canada, while Micra and Mirage declined.
2019 sales...
Spark: 6929
Micra: 6361
Mirage: 2270
March sales - coronavirus effect
Micra sales plummeted -62% in March compared to a year earlier.
That's 220 sales vs. 582 in March 2019.
Ominously, that's less of a drop than the fleet average for Nissan:
Quote:
Today, the Nissan Group announced total Canadian sales of 4,830 units for March 2020, a decrease of 67.8 per cent from 2019.

Continuing pandemic: sales numbers for the 2nd quarter
Nissan has switched to quarterly sales reports.
Amazingly, the Chevy Spark managed to *increase* its sales in the 2nd quarter over the 1st quarter: 548 Sparks found buyers per month on average from Apr through June, compared to 396 of Q1.
The Micra and Mirage did not.
279 Micras found homes each month in Q2.
115 Mirages.
