Small And Midsize Luxury Car Sales Figures In America - September 2013 YTD

2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA250 red
2310 CLAs Were Sold In September
The Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A4, Cadillac ATS, Infiniti G sedan, Infiniti Q50, Lexus IS, and the BMW 3-Series (and 4-Series, sales figures for which BMW USA is currently including in the 3er's total) gathered up 28,798 U.S. buyers in September 2013. 

Their more expensive big brethren - E-Class, A6, CTS, M, GS, and 5-Series - generated 14,912 sales last month.

After falling in each of the first four months of this year, sales of the 3-Series, America's best-selling premium brand vehicle, have risen 41.5% over the last five months. 49,023 3-Series (and now 4-Series) sedans, coupes, convertibles, and wagons have been sold in the United States since the beginning of May 2013. Its only competitor to have exceeded that total in nine months is the Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

Sales of the C-Class fell 19% in September 2013, however. Yes, sales of new vehicles in general were down last month, but the C-Class may struggle to post more year-over-year increases in the near future. 

Competition, in the form of Mercedes-Benz's own CLA250 and upcoming CLA45 AMG, sits right beside the C-Class in Mercedes' showrooms. The CLA250 starts at $29,900. 

Mercedes-Benz sold 2310 CLAs in September, the nameplate's first month on the U.S. market.
