GCBC’s Most Popular Auto Sales Figures – April 2016

As U.S. sales of the BMW 3-Series plunged 34% in March 2016, the BMW 3-Series’ sales tracking page became the most popular of its kind on GoodCarBadCar in April 2016.

Rocketing up from the tenth position in March to top spot in April, the 3-Series was joined by two other premium cars in the top 10. Mercedes-Benz’s C-Class was the eighth most popular vehicle on GCBC in April; the Tesla Model S grabbed the 3-Series’ former tenth spot.
