	February 2017	February 2016	% Change
Nissan Group Total sales (units)	135,740	130,911	+3.7

Nissan Group today announced total U.S. sales for February 2017 of 135,740 units, an increase of 4 percent over the prior year and a February record. Both the Nissan and Infiniti brands both saw sales grow over the same period a year ago, with some stand out numbers for SUV's and Crossovers, which is a market that continues to grow over and above all other segments.

Cars like the Sentra, Altima and maxima, once the staple of high sales all dipped below last February's numbers, even the favourite amongst the ozone friendly brigade, the Nissan LEAF, has only seen a small increase, which considering the market it is in and how well it has sold to date, is a surprise.

The all new QX30 from Infiniti has boosted the numbers by a significant amount, and to be honest, most of the luxury arm sales are up on a year ago, so it seems like people are opting for premium products over and above the normal cars, the rest of the year will see if this is the case, or not.

Nissan highlights:

• Nissan Division finished February with 122,003 sales, up 1 percent and also a February record.

• Overall sales of Nissan crossovers, trucks and SUVs set a February record, up 22 percent.
• Sales of the Rogue compact crossover set a February record at 33,149, up 54 percent.
• Sales of the Pathfinder SUV set a February record at 8,997, up 24 percent.

• Nissan TITAN sales climbed to 2,988, up 182 percent.
• Nissan Armada finished the month up 109 percent, with 2,289 sales.
