Small/Entry Luxury Car Sales And Midsize Luxury Car Sales In America - October 2011

U.S. small luxury car sales chart October 2011
BMW 3-Series slid 9% in October 2011. The drop in volume of America's best-selling premium car wasn't significant enough for the Mercedes-Benz C-Class to grab top spot in the small luxury sector, even with the C-Class's huge 88% jump. C-Class sales are up 7% through the first ten months of 2011.

2012 Volvo C30 OrangeVolvo is killing off the S40 and V50. The other side of their triangle, Volvo's C30, was up 38% in October. C30 sales remain low, less than half what BMW has with the 1-Series despite the 1-Series' 40% cliff dive. 

Moreover, C30 sales are down 17% this year. Volvo's good news is S60-centred. Sales of Volvo's most eye-catching current car are, at the very least, decent, and at most, 2519% better than S60 sales were last year.

Details on October U.S. sales of midsize luxury cars can be viewed after the jump.

Note: The Lincoln MKZ has moved below to the midsize luxury car group. Some larger cars remain in the small/entry segment breakdown, but that's mainly because their price and mission are more directly comparable to that of the class-leading BMW 3-Series.

Note: the Lincoln MKZ has moved in to the midsize luxury car group. Some larger cars remain in the small/entry segment breakdown, but that's mainly because their price and mission are more directly comparable to that of the class-leading BMW 3-Series. The MKZ comes across as more of a competitor for the Lexus ES than the Lexus IS.
