Sorting Issue

I have the following query

Select VehicleTrimAbbreviated, VehicleTrimAbbreviatedId

from VehicleTrimAbbreviated

Where vehicleTrimAbbreviated like 'CX%'

order by VehicleTrimAbbreviated asc

Results:

532;"CX Hatchback"

536;"CXL Minivan"

3255;"CXL Premium Sedan"

537;"CXL Sedan"

538;"CXL Sport Utility"

3319;"CXL Turbo Sedan"

533;"CX Minivan"

1959;"CX Plus Minivan"

534;"CX Sedan"

535;"CX Sport Utility"

539;"CXS Sedan"

Why would this not sort correctly? All the CX should be first, then
CXL, Then CXS

Here is the table definition:

CREATE TABLE vehicletrimabbreviated

(

vehicletrimabbreviatedid integer NOT NULL,

vehicletrimabbreviated character varying(64),

vehiclesubmodelid integer,

vehiclebodystyleid smallint,

vehiclebodystylegroupid smallint

)

WITH (

OIDS=FALSE

);

ALTER TABLE vehicletrimabbreviated OWNER TO app_user;

-- Index: vehicletrimabbreviated_i00

-- DROP INDEX vehicletrimabbreviated_i00;

CREATE UNIQUE INDEX vehicletrimabbreviated_i00
