Certified pre-owned sales of Asian-brand vehicles jumped close to 11 percent in January, and European-brand CPO sales moved even higher, improving by nearly 25 percent year-over-year.

That’s according to Autodata Corp., which released its monthly breakdown of industry-wide and brand-by-brand CPO sales.

Starting with Asian OEMs, their 87,623 CPO sales last month were up 10.9 percent from January 2014. Market share was 45.0 percent, down from 47.5 percent a year ago.

Dealers with European brands posted 34,397 certified sales in January, good for a 24.6-percent spike. That put their market share at 17.7 percent, beating the year-ago tally of 16.6 percent.

While no brands reported having best-ever CPO sales, a few confirmed that last month was their strongest January, those being:

Hyundai (7,368 sales)
Lexus (6,653)
Mercedes-Benz/smart (9,456)
Volkswagen (7,675)
