The Canadian Recreational Vehicle Association (CRVA) reports that RV wholesale shipments into Canada for the third quarter ending Sept. 30 totaled 14,245 units compared to 6,995 in 2020, representing an increase of 103.65 percent. Total RV wholesale shipments into Canada year to date as of Sept. 30 was 44,347 versus 20,101 units in 2020, representing an increase of 120.62 percent overall.
According to Statistical Surveys, RVDA of Canada reported that retail activity during the third quarter totaled 15,239 units and, when compared to the wholesale shipment figure of 14,245, Canadian RV dealer inventory levels decreased slightly during the quarter.
CRVA said it expects that dealer inventory levels will start to build in the fourth quarter and into 2022, but that it will take the next one to two years to fully replenish inventory to historical industry levels.
