Abstract

The projected change in the market share of small vans in total light-duty vehicle sales, from the model year 1990 to 2010 based on the business-as-usual scenario is shown here. This scenario assumes that there are no major policy changes in the 1990 to 2010 period, which would affect vehicle preferences. Light-duty vehicles include all cars and light trucks. Over the forecasting period 1990 to 2010, there would be significant increases in the market share of small vans (about 16%) across Canada. The fastest growth in this vehicle market share would take place in the Atlantic Provinces.
