Indeed, the U.S. auto industry didn't really suffer a downturn in May 2016, though "May" volume was down 6%. The auto sales calendar is a quirky one, and May 2016 didn't begin until May 3, 2016, shortening the calendar by two days compared with May 2015. Thus, the daily selling rate in May 2016 was actually up nearly 2%.
U.S. Vehicle Sales By Model - May 2016 YTD
U.S. SUV/Crossover Sales By Model - May 2016 YTD
When it comes to premium brand SUVs and crossovers, however, sales continued to skyrocket. The smallest German trio jumped 29% thanks largely to huge gains from the segment-leading BMW X1. Up a notch in size and price, the Audi Q5-led small luxury SUV/crossover segment jumped 16%, helped along by the arrival of a new British utility vehicle, the Jaguar F-Pace, Jaguar's first utility vehicle.
The F-Pace is slightly larger than many of the vehicles in this segment, but it's very affordably priced and still smaller than vehicles such as the Lexus RX and BMW X5. We've also included the new Buick Envision in this category, not because the Buick brand has the cachet of BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Audi, but because Buick wants to charge big league prices for its first from-China model.

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 you'll see the XC70 listed with luxury cars as well as with SUVs and crossovers and the Touareg with luxury SUVs and mainstream SUVs... 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.
