December one of the strongest months of the year for luxury auto sales has been traditionally. One of the reasons is the heavy marketing of upmarket names, how they try, Mercedes-Benz BMW led to the end of the year as the top-selling luxury brand in the United States until October in the race from 5.005 vehicles, according to market research firm Autodata.

But another factor is the explosive growth in new models, the priced under $40,000 this year.
