U.S. is Tesla’s the most important market even though it is increasingly focusing on other markets, like China. Admit it, you were just as us shocked when the automaker revealed that it delivered 25,202 Model S sedans in the U.S. in 2015. This huge deliveries gave Tesla a 25% market share in the premium sedan market. Some industry watchers thought that it might be a fluke, but the latest registration data suggests that Tesla is still maintaining its lead in the large luxury sedan segment in 2017. The company’s goal has always been to make the best vehicle possible t...

The big question is whether or not Tesla can back up that value with raw sales number...
BMW topped its rival in the US luxury auto market for the first time this year, eking out a monthly sales increase and gaining ground on Daimler AG’s Mercedes-Benz. Deliveries of the X3 and X5 sport utility vehicles climbed 43 percent and 35 percent last month, respectively, pacing BMW’s total sales of 31015 vehicles. The Munich-based automaker outsold Mercedes by about 1900 units in March. As plummeting demand for passenger cars led most automakers to miss analysts’ estimates last month, BMW managed to keep deliveries of its 3 Series and 5 Series models roughly flat compared...
May be we have been living in the auto industry bubble, but it's time to look at things from a fresh perspective amid some worrying rounds of new data. The cars are getting way more expensive in light of the increased horsepower and amenities. Unsurprisingly, this rising level of auto luxury has come alongside a surge in the stock market that has buyers willingly plunking down their credit card or some cold hard cash to get a new toy. The same thing could be applied to non-luxury cars, say mid-size sedans from Ford, Toyota and General Motors. They are receiving hosts of new fea...
