Thanks to a modest uptick in a market that declined in an abbreviated sales month, the top-selling Lexus outsold the second-ranked Mercedes-Benz C-Class by more than 1800 units and the second-ranked SUV/crossover by nearly 3000 units.

Among vehicles priced above $50,000, the Mercedes-Benz GLE was October's top seller, though GLE/M-Class sales were down 17%, year-over-year.

These two lists of America's luxury leaders are subject to change. The Ford Motor Company has not yet submitted October 2016 sales numbers because of a fire at the company's headquarters. This means we've yet to receive Lincoln sales results. Both one year ago and last month, however, there were no Lincolns among the top 15 best-selling luxury vehicles. 

Once we have Lincoln's figures, we'll also have a luxury auto brand market share chart. (Updated at 11:15 AM AT on 11.02.2016 with Lincoln results.)

Historical monthly and yearly sales figures for any of these top-selling luxury vehicles can always be accessed through the dropdown menu at GCBC's Sales Stats page, and for those not viewing the mobile version of this site, near the top right of this page, as well. Mobile users can now thumb across the tables for full-width access.

$50,000 USD (before delivery) is an arbitrary borderline, upgraded in 2016 from $45K last year by $5K, but if GCBC was to follow this system of designating only expensive vehicles as luxury vehicles, adding approximately $20,000 to the average new car transaction price seemed like a fitting place to begin. Plenty of less expensive vehicles with specific models feature prices above $50,000 - M, RS, and AMG models come to mind, specifically - but in the case of the second list, we know that none of the registrations were of cars priced below that borderline.
