What's The Most Popular Used Car In Norwood?
The home of the Automile is a destination for car buyers. Here are the cars they look for when they want a used ride.
NORWOOD, MA — Norwood is known as the place to go if you want to buy a car, so a local automotive research firm set out to figure out which model was the most popular. By analyzing more than 9 million used car transactions in Massachusetts, Woburn-based iSeeCars found out that the Toyota RAV4 was the most popular used car, both locally and statewide.
But the data showed certain models more popular in Norwood than in other parts of Massachusetts:
| Make/Model | Norwood Rank | Massachusetts Rank |
| Toyota RAV4 | 1 | 1 |
| Toyota Camry | 2 | 6 |
| Honda Civic | 3 | 4 |
| Honda CR-V | 4 | 2 |
| Honda Accord | 5 | 3 |
| Toyota Carolla | 6 | 5 |
| BMW 3 Series | 7 | 19 |
| Jeep Grand Cherokee | 8 | 7 |
| Honda Pilot | 9 | 22 |
| Chevrolet Silverado 1500 | 10 | 12 |
The data don't make it clear why two car makers are so popular locally. The findings did show that overall, consumers purchasing cars in Norwood prefer cars from Honda and Toyota, which comprised the majority of the list.

“The most-purchased cars in Norwood mirrored the statewide trend, with the top six being the most popular in Massachusetts,” iSeeCars CEO Phong Ly said in a release. “Toyotas and Hondas each appeared multiple times on this list, which is not surprising given their reputation for reliability.”
The study was based on one- to five-year-old cars sold from January 1, 2017 through December 17, 2017.
