- Six of the top 10 are alternative-fuel cars, with three electric cars and three plug-in hybrids. The remaining four gasoline vehicles consist of two sports cars and two luxury vehicles.
- The fastest-selling car is the FIAT 500e, selling in 22.2 days. Its low prices may be enticing buyers curious about making the switch away from gasoline. Its average price of $9,055 is a drop of 40.4 percent from $15,187 last year.
- The most popular models, such as the Honda Civic and Toyota Camry, were still selling faster than average, but were outside of the top 10 fastest-selling cars.
