Large Luxury Car Sales In Canada - September 2014 YTD

Canadians continue to buy and lease the Mercedes-Benz S-Class more often than any of its rivals, though in September 2014, Jaguar XJ sales rose to a six-month high, marking a 29% year-over-year increase.

The XJ still trailed the S-Class lineup by 29 units, meaning the S-Class sold 66% more often.

In terms of volume, the XJ is essential to Jaguar's current Canadian lineup, prior to the new entry-level XE's arrival. 

While the S-Class accounted for just 4.2% of Mercedes-Benz Canada car sales (and 2.3% of overall Benz volume) in September, Jaguar Canada relied on the XJ for 33% of the company's sales, albeit just 8% of total Jaguar-Land Rover volume.

In other words, not only does Mercedes-Benz lead the flagship luxury limo class with big S-Class volume, they also manage to sell far more cars from the lower-end portion of the lineup, as well.

GCBC isn't here to break down segments, an impossible task for any group, but to display sales data for the sake of comparison. You can always find the sales results for EVERY vehicle and form your own competitive sets by using the All Vehicle Rankings posts. Sales data for brands such as Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus, Rolls-Royce etc. are unfortunately not made available in Canada. Tesla doesn't release a monthly Model S sales report, either. ANDC estimates for Bentley, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce were 103, 155, 85, and 54, respectively, during the first nine months of 2014. Tesla sold 467 cars in the first eight months of 2014. Total Maserati volume is reported, but not by specific models. GCBC shows the Cadillac XTS, Hyundai Equus, and Kia K900 with midsize luxury cars not because of their size, but because the price points are much more directly comparable.
