| The Mercedes-Benz E-Class's New Face, And Some Other Guy's Face |
Sales of premium brand hatchbacks have struggled so far this year. The Audi A3, soon to be replaced at least in part by a new sedan, the Lexus CT200h, and the dying Volvo C30 have fallen 41%, 18%, and 37% through two months. In a not dissimilar price bracket, the Buick Verano (reviewed in Turbo form by GoodCarBadCar) and Acura ILX have been wildly more popular.

GoodCarBadCar breaks down the luxury car segment into multiple categories, not because this is a segment breakdown site, but because we endeavour to display cars alongside their nearest competitors, if not in pricing terms than in size terms. Automakers aren't beholden to specific "midsize" dimensions, nor are they restricted price-wise by the image their logo represents. (You'll find luxury flagship sedans showcased in this post.) We're always open to suggestions on how you would like to see segments broken down, so feel free to contact GCBC Towers at your leisure.
Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for all these luxury vehicles, including the mainstream players which make the voyage over from these midsize and large car sales posts, can be accessed by clicking the model names in the table below or by selecting a make and model at GCBC's Sales Stats page.
