So is Mercedes-Benz. But they don't sell a $20,000 commuter car.

No, Mercedes Benz is definitely a luxury brand. They don’t want to sell to everyone. Apple (Steve Jobs) has explicitly stated that as one of their goals.

> The Mercedes-Benz A-Class is a car manufactured by German luxury automaker Mercedes-Benz

"luxury" is more of a marketing and product positioning term, it doesn't really have anything to do with engineering or quality practicalities

Toyota is a quality brand, Mercedes is a luxury brand.

It’s an attainable luxury brand. There aren’t many products that a high school kid has in common with billionaires, superstar athletes and movie stars—the iPhone is such a product.
