3) Here is the list of cars developed in 1900 to present.

so, get ready!!!!!!

THE LIST OF MOST SOLD CARS OF ALL TIME :-


10) CHEVEROLET IMPALA :-

  
The Chevrolet Impala is the only GM vehicle on the list and has quite the history since hitting the market 54 years ago. Starting its life as a large two-door performance coupe, the Impala evolved into a versatile sedan. Or as we like to call it, a rental car. Ironically, it isn’t actually offered as a coupe anymore, which seems like a distant memory after 10 generations of upgrades.



  • Chevy Impala (1958 - present)
  • Sales: 14 million
  • Type: mid-priced V6 coupe
  • Price: $25,760 (most recent)

9) VOLKSWAGON PASSAT :-

 
 the newest-generation Volkswagen Passat starts at just under $20,000 and vastly different car from the first one that rolled off the assembly line in 1973. A solid seller, Volkswagen has completely changed the car, growing it into a significantly larger vehicle for the North American market in the hopes of selling even more of them.




  • Volkswagen Passat (1973 - present)
  • Sales: 15.5 million
  • Type: mid-priced five cylinder four door
  • Price: $19,995 (most recent)

8) FORD MODEL T :-



 This one may come as a bit of a surprise considering the Model T was produced back between 1908 and 1927 when Henry Ford first developed the modern assembly line. The Model T originally sold for less than $1,000, but later models sold for less than $300 once production really started rolling in the ’20s. The Model T made millions of Americans car owners while giving thousands of people jobs in the Detroit area.


  •  Ford Model T (1908 - 1927)
  • Sales: 16.5 million
  • Type: first mass-production sedan
  • Price: $260 (1920s)

7) HONDA ACCORD :-

 
 In case you haven’t been inundated with reminders from Honda that their Accord has made the Car and Driver “10 Best” list 26 times and 15 years in a row, now you’ll know that it’s also the seventh best selling car of all time. Production of the Accord started in 1976 and it’s still one of the world’s most popular mid-sized, affordable cars, nine generations later.




  • Honda Accord (1976 - present)
  • Sales: 17.5 million
  • Type: inexpensive four-cylinder mid-sized sedan
  • Price: $21,380 (most recent) 


6) HONDA CIVIC :-

 
 The only surprise about the Honda Civic being on the list is that it’s in sixth place. Despite the recent model’s sales droop, the Civic is still one of the most popular cars in history. The Civic has been everyone’s affordable Honda since its debut in 1972, available in hatchback, coupe and sedan forms through multiple generations. In more recent years, the Civic can also be purchased with natural gas or hybrid powertrains, offering further savings through fuel efficiency.

  • Honda Civic (1972 - present)
  • Sales: 18.5 million
  • Type: inexpensive four-cylinder sedan
  • Price: $15,605 (most recent)

5) FORD ESCORT :-

 
 Despite being discontinued back in 2000, the European Ford Escort still takes fifth place as a small, fuel-efficient car originally sold in England in 1967 as a 1968 model. Its popularity in England allowed for six generations of European Escorts with each update offering more options and a larger engine. It’s worth mentioning that the American Escort isn’t counted here, because it wasn’t related to the European model.

  • Ford Escort (1968 - 2000)
  • Sales: 20 million
  • Type: inexpensive four-cylinder two-door/four-door
  • Price: $11,950 (2000)

4) VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE :-

 
 The Volkswagen Beetle is the oldest vehicle on this list that’s still in production and is one of the most iconic cars in history. The Beetle has been the Volkswagen flagship vehicle ever since it launched back in 1933 and has evolved considerably since. Recent Beetles offer something for everyone, with fuel-efficient diesel models to a performance-minded turbo version.

  • Volkswagen Beetle (1933 - present)
  • Sales: 23.5 million through 2011
  • Type: inexpensive rear-engine four-cylinder
  • Price: $19,795 (most recent) 

3) VOLKSWAGEN GOLF :-

 
 Clearly Volkswagen has had some success in its history, with yet another vehicle making the cut. This time it’s the Golf, traditionally the least expensive compact car the German automaker has to offer. (That is, until the new Jetta arrived). It originally debuted in 1974 as the Rabbit in America and was intended to be a successor to the Beetle, but we all know how that went. Now the Golf, Beetle and Passat team up for a powerful trio of vehicle models that helps drive VW as the number two automaker in the world for 2011.

  • Volkswagen Golf (1974 - present)
  • Sales: 27.5 million
  • Type: inexpensive four-cylinder sedan
  • Price: $17,995 (most recent)

2)  FORD F SERIES :-

 
 We all know that pickup trucks are popular in the U.S., but we didn’t know they were this prolific. Second place on the list is the Ford F-Series truck line, which has been the best-selling full-size pickup in America for over 30 years. The first model rolled off the assembly line back in 1948, but since then the F-Series evolved to offer a broad trim level that appeals to a wide range of customers. From the affordable F-150 to the powerful F-450 Super Duty, there’s an F-Series for every need.

  •  Ford F-Series (1948 - present)
  • Sales: 35 million
  • Type: Pickup
  • Price: $22,990 (most recent) 

1) TOYOTA COROLLA :-


 

And finally, the number one selling vehicle of all time: the Toyota Corolla. The best selling car since 2007, when it came to vehicles (trucks included), Ford’s F-Series was ahead until recently, but now the Corolla can claim the overall title too.
It has been the Japanese automaker’s big seller ever since production began in 1966. From the popular AE86 variants to the economy sedan we know today, the Corolla has been the perfect car in both Japan and America. Billed as an inexpensive, fuel efficient sedan, the Corolla may have competition from its own company as the Prius line paves the way to becoming one of the top best selling cars of all time, but that’s a long way off.


The Toyota Corolla is the best-selling car of all time, according to 24/7 Wall Street, a business news website.
Introduced in 1966, the Toyota mainstay has sold 37.5 million units over the years. The inexpensive four-cylinder sedan - originally launched in Japan, where its small size and fuel efficiency were well suited - has undergone 10 iterations of upgrades since then. Currently, the Corolla gets 35 miles per gallon and sells for $16,130.
