Production Numbers (CA)

The following table provides production numbers for fully-assembled Corvair cars and CKD (Completely Knocked Down) kits manufactured by GM Canada.  The CKD kits were for export and were assembled by GM factories overseas.  The numbers were compiled from GM Canada records by Ray Twist and Dave Newell.

You may notice the absence of Corvair Greenbriers, Corvans, Rampsides and Loadsides.  As explained in the May 2017 issue of the CORSA Communique magazine, GM Canada's Corvair production was limited to passenger cars. 

For further details, please refer to the articles named "Production Numbers Revised" published in the May 2017 issue of the CORSA Communique and "New Canadian Production Figures" in the November-December 2017 issue, both written by Dave Newell.
