July 2011's fourth-best-selling, fifth-best-selling, eighth-best-selling, 12th-best-selling, and 21st-best-selling luxury vehicles in Canada are in the chart below. The segment-leading Lexus RX was down 33% year-over-year. Next up, the Acura MDX slid 18%. Lincoln MKX sales rose 32.7%. The BMW X5 was up 5.6%.
