Carter automotive manufactures both luxury cars and economy cars. However, the number of luxury cars sold account for only 15% of the total car sales made by the company. To boost its luxury car sales, Carter has introduced a lower priced entry level car into its luxury line.
Which of the following if true points to a flaw in Carter Automotive’ s plan?
(A) People who buy Carter’s entry level luxury car would have bought one of Carter’s current luxury cars.
(B) Most of the sales of Carter’s entry level luxury car would be to people who currently purchase its economy cars.
(C) The greatest growth in luxury car segment is in mid-level luxury car market rather than in entry level
(D) The features planned for Carter’s luxury car are not likely to attract any buyers – old or new
(E) Other car manufacturers who have embarked upon introducing entry level luxury cars have found limited success with the same.

Strange question -- the company is making a new car to boost sales. Answer D says no one will buy the new car. That's obviously a problem with their plan.
Other answers might be right here also depending how you interpret the question. The goal of the plan is to "boost... luxury car sales". The word "sales" can mean one of two things: the number sold, or the total revenues for things sold. It's not clear what we're trying to "boost" here -- if we just want to sell more cars, then D is the only right answer. If we want greater revenue from luxury car sales, then answer A could also be a good choice (though not as good as D).

I am stuck with options A and D. Although, if I had to choose, I would choose option A, as it's option D is a little out of scope of the stem. Can anyone help me out?
