I'm wondering if the IS500 is bringing more attention to the LC500. Reason being people finally starting to realize luxury V8s, especially Lexus V8's will be gone in the very near future. And also discovering how awesome the LC500 really is.

as long as you dont read anything but headlines, is 27k Mach Es in 2021 really enough to be 2nd in BEV sales in USA? That is crazy low. Sometimes it is hard to believe how far ahead Europe is.

Porsche reveals 2021 sales figures, more than doubles Taycan sales
Jo Borras- Jan. 5th 2022 9:40 am PT
![](https://electrek.co/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2022/01/taycan_sales.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1400)
Porsche just released its 2021 sales figures, and you’d never know there was any kind of supply problems from looking at them. Porsche Cars North America (PCNA) had its best year ever in 2021, up 22 percent from the pandemic-stained 2020 and 14 percent above the record set in 2019.Even bigger news? It was Porsche’s electrified lineup that led the charge in 2021.
Porsche powered through the chip shortage seemingly unscathed, with 2021’s fourth quarter deliveries breaking PCNA’s quarterly record at 18,410 deliveries – about five percent above the same quarter in 2020.
“Our sales were driven by the strongest and most exciting lineup of cars we’ve ever had, combined with a shared commitment with our dealers to raising the bar for customer experience,” said Kjell Gruner, President and CEO of PCNA. “It was a fascinating year, as sales of the Taycan more than doubled while the 911 benefited from the growing popularity of the icon’s latest generation. We worked together with our dealer network to meet and perhaps exceed the expectations of our customers when it comes to enjoying a Porsche … overall, we enter the new year with even greater momentum for the Porsche brand in America.”
Most interestingly, the Porsche Taycan outsold both the full gamut 718 Boxster/Cayman models and the Panamera combined. Porsche’s hot-selling EV made up 13.5 percent of all PCNA deliveries in 2021 and contributed to a combined “electrified vehicle” share of 17 percent.

BMW 6 Series: 55 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06140720/BMW-6-Series.jpg)
BMW quietly removed the 6 Series from the U.S. market during the 2019 model year. It had been available in three configurations, a hardtop coupe, a convertible and a sleek four-door coupe-like shape.
BMW i8: 18 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06140900/BMW-i8_Roadster.jpg)
We've always had a soft spot for the BMW i8, despite the fact that it never quite fit into a particular category. It was sporty, but nowhere near as fast as similarly-priced competitors. It looked very high-tech and boasted a unique carbon fiber chassis design and a plug-in hybrid powertrain, but wasn't really designed for maximum efficiency or maximum performance. Still, the in-betweener was very cool to look at and drive, and 18 buyers took one home over the course of 2021.
Chevy Impala: 750 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06141308/Chevrolet-Impala1.jpg)
The Impala represented classic American tastes at a time when American tastes were shifting away from soft-riding sedans with big interior room and trunk space and into higher-riding crossovers. A total of 750 sales were inked last year.
Chrysler 200: 15 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06141450/Chrysler-200.jpg)
The Chrysler 200 was actually a pretty nice sedan, with good looks and decent driving dynamics let down by a lack of roominess, particularly in the back seat. Of course, as we said regarding the Chevy Impala, the number of Americans in the market for sedans is rapidly winding down, and other automakers are following Chrysler's footsteps in canceling their slow-selling four-doors.
Even if Chrysler never really found its footing in the ultra-competitive midsize sedan segment, apparently dealerships have a few leftover 2017 200s floating around. And for some reason, 15 buyers decided to sign the dotted line to take one of these aging sedans home last year. Interestingly, Chrysler sold nine 200s over the course of the 2020 sales year, so sales were actually up in 2021 for a sedan that ended production in 2017.

We're not sure how Chrysler dealers were able to log four Town & Country minivan sales last year, but here we are. Chrysler pulled the plug on its long-running minivan way back in 2016 when it was replaced by the sleek Pacifica. We hope those buyers got really solid deals.
Dodge Dart: 10 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06142015/Dodge-Dart_GT.jpg)
Dodge discontinued the compact Dart back in 2016, just three years after its launch. The automaker just wasn't able to compete with the segment leaders like the Honda Civic or the sales juggernaut that is the Toyota Corolla. Despite the fact that it's been dead for several years, Dodge managed to sell 10 Darts in 2021. A year ago, Dodge managed to move seven of 'em, so again, that's improvement!
Dodge Viper: 4 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06142226/Dodge-Viper_ACR1.jpg)
Dodge discontinued the rip-roaring Viper after the 2017 model year, but there are still a few left in dealerships around the country. Over the course of 2021, Dodge managed to sell four SRT Vipers.
It's interesting to think that these buyers had the option of driving home in a brand-new mid-engine Corvette, but chose to go in an entirely different direction. Something tells us they won't be disappointed with its 640-horsepower naturally aspirated V10 engine, even if it's mounted way out in front of the driver instead of the preferable sportscar location behind the passenger compartment.

Fiat hasn't exactly pulled itself entirely out of the U.S. market, but it's close. A quick glance at the Fiat USA website shows only one vehicle, the 500X crossover. Gone are the original 500, pumped-up 500L and 124 Spider. Let's all collectively hope the 51 500 buyers last year opted for Abarth models.
Infiniti QX30: 1 total sale
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06143018/Infiniti-QX301.jpg)
The Infiniti QX30, a collaboration designed and built with Mercedes-Benz, ended production after the 2019 model year. Still, one single solitary little crossover was sold to a new buyer in 2021. Odd choice; we hope they got a good deal.
Jeep Patriot: 16 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06143408/Jeep-Patriot1.jpg)
Jeep discontinued the Patriot in 2017 when it introduced the latest version of its compact Compass crossover. Despite the fact that it's three full model years old, there are still some Patriots milling about on Jeep dealerships across America. In total, Jeep sold 16 Patriots in 2021, which somehow is 13 more than they sold in 2020.
Nissan 370Z: 36 total sales
![](https://o.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2022/01/06143529/Nissan-370Z.jpg)
Nissan axed the 370Z Roadster after the 2019 model year, with the replacement Z coming in 2023 with a twin-turbo V6 engine that spins out 400 horsepower. Earlier this year, Nissan confirmed in a statement to Autoblog that there were still a few 370Z stragglers sitting on dealership lots in 2021, with the total tally standing at 36 sales.
Toyota FJ Cruiser: 1 total sale

And now we come to the final, and oldest, new sale made by any automaker over the course of 2021. Somehow, some way, a lone Toyota dealership held on to an FJ Cruiser, a model that ended production in 2014, and sold it to a new buyer in 2021. To them we say: Congratulations. You bought the oldest new car in America (that we know of), and it's a cool one. Enjoy.
