In fact, according to Bloomberg's analysis, the only sedans that outsold the Model 3 in Q3 were the Toyota Corolla and Camry, and Honda's Accord and Civic. No luxury brands even had a sedan in the top 10 sales chart, and as Bloomberg points out, the Model 3 is the only electric car on the list.

Of course, a big part of the explanation comes from the fact that many automakers have seen their customers switch from sedans to SUVs. That's not only true in mainstream brands -- the Honda CR-V outsold the Accord by 5,230 units last month -- but even more so when it comes to luxury makers. The X3 was the best-selling BMW last month, for instance, while Audi sold more than twice as many Q5s as A4s.
