Top 20 Worst Selling Vehicles In America August 2014

2015 BMW i8
Fiat sold just 33 copies of its larger 500L in the United States in August 2014 as the Chrysler Group/FCA said the Fiat brands 20% decline was, "due to a Fiat 500L recall affecting an estimated 29,500 vehicles in the U.S. and Canada." Sales of the non-L 500 were up 12% to 3329 units in August. 


• U.S. Vehicle Sales Rankings By Model - August 2014 YTD


Among vehicles which generated sales in August, only the defunct Chevrolet Avalanche and cancelled Volvo C70 produced more drastic year-over-year declines than the 500L.

In terms of volume alone, the 500L ranked 13th among the lowest-volume vehicles in America, one spot ahead (behind?) the Dodge Viper. New to the list this month is the just-on-sale BMW i8, which certainly has the price tag, though not the desirability quotient, to remain among Americas lowest-volume vehicles for the foreseeable future. 

Porsche reported 15 918 Spyder sales in August, Audi sold 50 R8s, and Mercedes-Benz sold 26 copies of the slowly-dying SLS AMG.
