The battle to claim October's best-selling compact sedan title has been won by the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/civic/">Honda Civic</a>. The Japanese four-door sold 27,328 units, leaving the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/toyota/corolla/">Toyota Corolla</a> - September's title holder - in its wake with 23,637 units sold. In terms of year-to-date sales, the Civic sits at 280,899 units, with the Corolla trailing at 257,184 vehicles.<br />
<br />
Sitting in third place, separated by a significant gap from the leaders, is the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chevrolet/cruze/">Chevrolet Cruze</a> with 16,087 units sold. The <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/ford/focus/">Ford Focus</a> earned fourth, with 15,108 units moved out of showrooms. (It is interesting to note that while the Civic and Corolla have both enjoyed double-digit sales increases year-over-year, the Cruze and Focus have seen significant decreases during the same period.)<br />
<br />
Sales of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/hyundai/elantra/">Hyundai Elantra</a> hit 14,876 units, putting it in fifth place, with the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/volkswagen/jetta/">Volkswagen Jetta</a> earning sixth place with 11,710 units. Rounding out the ten top sellers were the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/nissan/sentra/">Nissan Sentra</a> (8,399 units), <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/mazda/mazda3/">Mazda3</a> (7,647 units), <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/dodge/dart/">Dodge Dart</a> (5,617 units) and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/subaru/impreza/">Subaru Impreza</a>/<a href="http://www.autoblog.com/subaru/wrx/">WRX</a> (4,923 units). The <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/kia/forte/">Kia Forte</a> (4,706 units) and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/volkswagen/golf/">Volkswagen Golf</a> (2,249 units), eleventh and twelfth respectively, have fallen behind.<br />
