Cars
As the number of entry luxury car nameplates increases, so too does the volume generated by the overall entry luxury car segment. November sales of cars like the BMW 3-Series, Audi A3, Lexus IS, and Mercedes-Benz C-Class jumped 20% in Canada.
Lexus began selling the RC coupe last month as a partner to the IS and GS sedans. 41 of the 56 sold were RC350s, the other 15 were 467-horsepower, $80,800 F models.

No premium brand car sells as often as BMW's 3-Series. 894 copies were sold in November, good enough to make the 3-Series family Canada's 19th-best-selling car overall, just behind the Nissan Micra, Canada's most affordable new car.
Overall, BMW car sales declined in November as the 4-Series' gains weren't enough to make up for 3-Series losses and the 5-Series, 6-Series, 7-Series, and Z4 all reported declines. 1556 BMW passenger cars were sold in Canada in November, a 2% loss. BMW car sales are up 1.4% this year. BMW's SAVs are up 6.9% to 13,734 units, 45% of the brand's total volume. Mercedes-Benz Canada sold 1717 cars in November, a 1.4% decline.
Total Lincoln car sales were down 53%. Cadillac's cars rose 3%. Acura cars, helped along by the new TLX, jumped 55%. Jaguar's four car nameplates combined for a 3% improvement. Infiniti's cars were down 5.5% to 273 units. Lexus car volume was up 0.3%, a gain of two units. Porsche car volume was up 17%. Volvo car sales slid 15%. Audi, with 1087 car sales, a 28% increase, was the only premium automarker to join BMW and Mercedes-Benz with more than 1000 car sales in November.

GCBC isn't here to break down segments, an impossible task for any group, but to display sales data for the sake of comparison. The more ways sales data can be displayed, the better. This explains why you'll see the XC70 listed with luxury SUVs and the Acura ILX with mainstream cars... because readers have wanted it both ways. You can always find the sales results for EVERY vehicle and form your own competitive sets by using the All Vehicle Rankings posts.
^ Acura combines sales figures of the outgoing RL with the new RLX. Mercedes-Benz's Canadian sales figures combine the E-Class with the CLS-Class. Audi Canada's A4 sales figures include sales of the Allroad.
‡ The XTS, K900, and Equus aren't listed here because they're not massive - they are - but because their price points position them much more closely to, for example, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class than the S-Class. Genesis sales figures here do not include sales of the Genesis Coupe (as Hyundai's U.S. Genesis sales figures do), making the comparison with premium brand vehicles much more valid.
