The projected change in the market share of midsize cars in total light-duty vehicle sales, from the model year 1990 to 2010 based on the business-as-usual scenario is shown on this map. This scenario assumes that there are no major policy changes during the 1990 to 2010 period, which would affect vehicle preferences. Light-duty vehicles include all cars and light trucks. It is projected that there would be no significant increase in the market share of midsize cars over the 1990 to 2010 period for Canada as a whole (16.5% in 1990 and 17.0% in 2010). In general, this car type's market share would increase significantly in most urban areas but decrease considerably in rural areas.
