A big Canadian sales month for Mercedes-Benz in January 2014 was fuelled in part by the Mercedes-Benz CLA, which made it onto the list of Canada's 15 best-selling premium brand vehicles for the first time.

Nearly half of Mercedes-Benz Canada's non-Sprinter volume in January was generated by the company's three entry-level cars: the CLA, which tied for 14th among premium brand vehicles, the C-Class, which led all premium brand vehicles, and the B-Class, sales of which slid 5% to 191 units last month.


11 of Canada's 15 leading premium brand nameplates in January 2014 were utility vehicles, including the second, third, and fourth top sellers. BMW's X5 was Canada's 20th-best-selling SUV/crossover overall, the only premium brand utility to crack the top 20.

Among vehicles with base prices north of $50,00, the X5 led the way. The Volkswagen Touareg, Chevrolet Corvette, Toyota Sequoia, and GMC Yukon also inserted themselves into the mix. Sales of the $52,745+ Corvette were seven times stronger in January 2014 than they were a year ago. 

Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for any of these top-selling luxury vehicles can always be accessed through the dropdown menu at GCBC's Sales Stats page, and for those not viewing the mobile version of this site, near the top right of this page, as well.

^ Mercedes-Benz Canada's figures combine the E-Class with the CLS and the S-Class with the CL.
$50,000 CDN (before delivery) is an arbitrary borderline, but if GCBC was to follow this new system of designating only expensive vehicles as luxury vehicles, $50K seemed like a safe place to begin - it equals the average U.S. new car transaction price plus $15,000, plus another $5000 to account for Canadian increases. Plenty of less expensive vehicles with specific models feature prices above $50,000 - M, RS, and AMG models come to mind, specifically - but in the case of this list, we know that none of the registrations were of cars priced at $35,900, as would be the case with the BMW 320i, which costs less than a Hyundai Santa Fe 2.0T Limited. The biggest problem with a $50,000 minimum price of entry? Cars like the Cadillac XTS, which starts at $48,940, sporty cars like the $49,500 Audi TT, and SUVs like the $49,990 Acura MDX. Volkswagen recently increased the base Touareg's price to $50,975; GM jacked up the base Tahoe/Yukon price up to $51,580. The new Cadillac CTS sedan's base price is above $50,000, but not the base price for other cars in the CTS lineup. Yet.

Total Infiniti G/Q50/Q60 volume: up 76.3% to 238
