Among the best-selling cars in the world, Japanese brands continue to dominate, with the best-selling vehicles primarily coming from these companies. According to the latest information published in global automotive publications like Autocar, in 2018, Toyota was able to claim the title of the best-selling product of the year. The Toyota Corolla was the best-selling car in the world in 2018. Production of this vehicle began in 1966, and it has seen 12 different generations in the market so far.

Beyond this family sedan, the second best-selling car in the world is a large pickup truck.

This vehicle sold 1,080,000 units and is not particularly cheap, priced at around $28,000. The third best-selling car in the world is a mid-size crossover.

Thanks to the popularity of this product from America to Europe, Toyota has managed to sell 837,000 units of it at a price of about $26,000. In fourth place, we have another Japanese car, this time from Honda: the Honda Civic can be considered a competitor to the Toyota Corolla, a mid-size family sedan that has seen 10 generations produced so far and was one of the first Japanese cars to enter the American market. This car sold 823,000 units and is priced at around $19,000, making it the second best-selling sedan in the world.

The Wuling Hongguang is the name of this product. It is a multi-purpose van produced by the SAIC-GM-Wuling alliance, formed by three companies: General Motors, Shanghai Automotive Industry Corporation, and Wuling Motors.
