The 4-Series, you’ll recall, was formerly the 3-Series coupe and convertible. But now the 4-Series also includes a four-door, the Gran Coupe.
And as 3-Series volume increases, so too does the 4-Series’. Together, they attracted 1182 new owners in February 2015, more than the TLX, A4, ATS, Q50, IS, and RC combined.
With new help from the Global Automakers Of Canada, we now have Volvo V60 numbers. And yes, the V60 outsold the S60 by a two-to-one count in February 2015.

GCBC isn’t 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 you’ll 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-Benz’s Canadian sales figures combine the E-Class with the CLS-Class. Audi Canada’s A4 sales figures include sales of the Allroad.
‡ The XTS, K900, and Equus aren’t listed here because they’re 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 Hyundai’s U.S. Genesis sales figures do), making the comparison with premium brand vehicles much more valid.
