  • 2018 top-selling US luxury vehicle?

    Tesla Model 3. Not even close.



    Ground has broken on Shanghai's Gigafactory 3. Production there of Model 3 and an Asian 'lite' version of Model Y crossover next year.

    US production of the Model Y, Semi, Roadster 2.0 (0-60 in 1.9s) and the Pickup in 2020.

    3,000/month European Model 3's begin shipping next month. A European Gigafactory announcement is expected this year.

    Tesla sold more cars in the US in 2018 than it did in every previous year of the electric automaker's existence combined. The Model 3 luxury sedan's strong year helped steer that growth.


    Last year, in total, Tesla sold 145,846 Model 3s, the company's mid-size, four-door sedan that started production in 2017. That easily outpaced the 111,641 units sold by the Model 3's closest luxury vehicle competitor, the Lexus RX.

    That Lexus luxury SUV (which is made by Toyota) finished 2018 second on the list of best-selling luxury vehicles, followed by more luxury SUVs like the Mercedes-Benz GLC (an estimated 62,435 units sold) and the Audi Q5 (61,835 units), according to Kelley Blue Book.
