One has to wonder how some models stay alive when you sell so few!

Because they ahve a world wide market and the USA is a side show...just like Benz.

I don't know about audi, esp as a cog in a giant wheel, but benz's volume and ATPs in the US (vs. all the fleet sales in the EU) have to make it FAR more than a 'sideshow' here.

Wow I didn't realize how big Audi was in China, #1 over Mercedes and BMW for now, over 500k units moved last year there alone for Audi.  Looks like it will be a bigger market for Cadillac than USA as well moving forward.  The CT6 sells much better there than USA.  Perhaps North America will get the Escalade and whatever sells in China as its model range soon.
