2021 US Midsize Luxury Car Sales Figures

2021 Best Selling Midsize Luxury Cars In the United States (All Models Ranked)

In 2021, the midsize luxury car market in the U.S. continued to offer buyers a blend of performance, technology, and premium comfort. Though, like the general midsize segment, it faced challenges from the rising popularity of luxury SUVs and crossovers, midsize luxury sedans still held a significant appeal for those prioritizing a combination of driving dynamics, luxury, and advanced tech features. The rise of SUVs and crossovers affected luxury brands just as much as mainstream ones. Many luxury brands expanded their SUV lineups in response to consumer demand. The luxury segment saw an increased push towards electrification. Several luxury automakers either introduced new electric models or hybrid/electric versions of existing models, reflecting the industry’s broader move towards sustainable mobility.

A benchmark in the segment, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class offered a range of models, from sedans to coupes, convertibles, and wagons. With state-of-the-art tech, refined interiors, and a variety of powertrains, it remained a top choice. A key rival to the E-Class, the BMW 5 Series provided drivers with a sporty yet luxurious experience, paired with a lineup of potent engines and advanced tech features. The Audi A6 stood out with its modern design, high-quality interior, and tech-oriented features, including the brand’s MMI touch response system.
