Canada's small luxury SUV market is booming. We shouldn't be surprised - there are progressively more and more of these vehicles available.
• Canada Vehicle Sales Rankings By Make & Model - January 2015
• Canada SUV/Crossover Sales Rankings By Model - January 2015
Over the last few months, the Audi Q3, BMW X4, Lexus NX, Lincoln MKC, Mercedes-Benz GLA, and Porsche Macan entered the market.
Thus, in a compact category which last year included just one vehicle, sales jumped 163% thanks to assistance from the Q3 and GLA.
One class up, the new nameplates weren't needed in order for the market to expand. January sales of small luxury utilities that were on sale a year ago jumped 8%. But with the X4, NX, MKC, and Macan assisting, segment-wide volume shot up 49%.
This was out of the ordinary for the utility vehicle arena in Canada last month. Total sales rose just 2% after soaring 15% in 2014.
You can click any model name in the tables below to find historical monthly and yearly Canadian auto sales data. You can also select a make and model at GCBC's Sales Stats page. These tables are now sortable, so you can rank luxury SUVs and crossovers any which way you like. Suggestions on how GCBC should break down segments can be passed on through the Contact page.

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 you'll see the XC70 listed with luxury cars as well as with SUVs and crossovers and the Touareg with luxury SUVs and mainstream SUVs... 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.
