3-Series sales increased 37%, however, and in combination with its 4-Series offshoot actually outsold the C-Class (figures for which include the coupe) by 168 units.

Acorss the luxury car spectrum there were few significant year-over-year gains. Cars which werent on sale a year ago – TLX and A3, for example – obviously added sales. 

But significant declines were reported by the Acura ILX, Audi A5 and A7, BMW 5-Series, Cadillac XTS, Infiniti Q60, Lincoln MKS and MKZ, Mercedes-Benz B-Class and E-Class, and the whole Volvo car lineup. 

Big gains from big players elevated the small/entry field, however, as it became abundantly clear that Canadians want what other Canadians have historically wanted.

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 GCBCs Sales Stats page. These tables are now sortable, so you can rank luxury cars any which way you like. Suggestions on how GCBC should break down segments can be passed on through the Contact page.

GCBC isnt 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 youll 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.
^ Mercedes-Benzs Canadian sales figures combine the E-Class with the CLS-Class. Audi Canadas A4 sales figures include sales of the Allroad. Volvos S60/V60 figures are combined before they arrive at GCBC.
‡ The XTS, K900, and Equus arent listed here because theyre 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 Hyundais U.S. Genesis sales figures do), making the comparison with premium brand vehicles much more valid.

Top 30 Best Selling Vehicles In America January 2015

2015 Subaru Outback
25% of Americas new vehicle purchases in January 2015 can be viewed in the top one-third of the list below. The ten best-selling vehicles in America collectively reported a 16% year-over-year improvement, slightly better than the 14% overall improvement from the U.S. auto industry.

The Ford F-Series, Chevrolet Silverado, and Ram P/U - Americas three top sellers - all outpaced the industrys rate of expansion. Indeed, all of Americas seven top-selling vehicles posted improvements superior to that of the overall industry.

Compared with January of last year, the Volkswagen Jetta, Kia Optima, Toyota Highlander, and Chevrolet Impala were knocked off. In their place, youll find the Subaru Outback, Jeep Wrangler, Honda Pilot, and Nissan Sentra.

Weve already published January 2015 lists for the 20 best-selling cars, 20 best-selling SUVs and crossovers, and complete figures for every pickup truck, links to which youll find at the bottom of this post. Throwing all those vehicles into one group results in this list of the 30 best-selling vehicles overall. We end up with five pickup trucks, 13 cars, 11 utility vehicles, and one Subaru Outback.

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