These Are The Most Common New Cars On Your Local Roads
Teslas, trucks and three-row crossovers seem to be the most common new cars on the road. Even though Jalopnik readers wrote in from across the U.S. — and beyond — it looks like Tesla EVs and full-size pickup trucks are the most common vehicles. And sales figures back up their claims.
Of course, three-row crossovers aren’t far behind, the operative word there being crossover. Most people are looking for a good dollar-to-car ratio, and boring as they may be, crossovers deliver in that regard.

Tesla Model 3, more than every other new car combined. After that, probably Lexus NX or RX. Live on Long Island, drive to Manhattan for work.

I commute between Seattle and the Eastside and I’m surrounded by Model Ys and Model 3s, with the occasional Model S or X thrown into the mix. The opening paragraph of the article reminds me of the other day when I was merging onto I-90 and was immediately boxed in on three sides by white Model Ys. Felt like a low budget video game where they didn’t make enough NPC car models.

I notice the not uncommon, but still stand outs like C8s and Nissan Titans and the like, but if I stop at a stop light and look for new cars, its big trucks and Rav4s.

Toyota Rav4
Rav4. Until I drove one myself (borrowed from a friend) I did not pay attention to realize that every car on the road is a Rav4. New or old I have no clue because they’re all the same. Taxi, Rideshare, private vehicle, they’re all Rav4's. Whoever programs the Matrix in my area is very lazy with their background choice.

Subaru Outback and Subaru Crosstrek
Went to the Pacific Northwest and the number of Subarus was truly astounding, always see it as a stereotype but is very true in real life. Suggested we do a round of Slug Bug with Subies instead of VW Beetles but passenger declined :(
