The first two months of 2019 saw the Audi Q5 leading the charts for our medium luxury SUV category.

For the remainder of the year, however, one SUV outsold everything in its path to solidify its position as the top-selling SUV in this list.

In 2019, the BMW X3 sold off an impressive 2071 units – more than 700 units clear of the Q5!

On its part, the Q5 returned a highly commendable 1334 sales. Alongside the X3, it is the only SUV to have surpassed the 1000-mark for the year.
