*Updated with BMW X3 sales figures 5/12/09 @ 8:21 AST*
You may now consider yourself acclimatized. In the small luxury SUV world, the Mercedes-Benz GLK is the dominant factor. Even in a good month for Audi’s Q5, the GLK350 4Matic still comes out on top. Yes, this appears to occur every month – you’re used to it – as hundreds of buyers after hundreds of buyers look at the Benz GLK and think, “I want”.
Why doesn’t BMW want to share their own personal Sales Stats for November 2009? It may be just a communication error, but after a long and hard search, The Good Car Guy came up with no data on BMW’s X3. Of course, Land Rover continues to be absent from info presenting, as well. Check the October data here and the specific figures on small luxury SUV sales in November ’09 below.

Audi Q5: 1,509
Volvo XC60: 1,098
Acura RDX: 943
Infiniti EX35: 630

GLK drops it like it's hot.
the big question isn't how the GLK sells 1724 times. it's why 943 people choose the Acura instead.
