Finally EVs struggle at -16.9% to 6,613 and 5.3% share vs. 5.6% in November 2023.

First Top 50 finish at home for the Alfa Romeo Junior, directly at #29.

For the fourth month in a row, Fiat isn’t the best-seller at home, ranking #3 with just 7.1% share which is its 2nd lowest ever after the 6.9% hit last August. This month and for the 2nd time ever after last August, Toyota (+10.8%) is the most popular carmaker in the country with 9% share, a new record eclipsing its previous best of 8.6% reached last August. Volkswagen (+17.4%) follows in 2nd place and in great shape year-on-year. Only 16 sales below Fiat, Dacia (-2.2%) points its bonnet in 4th position with 7.1% share ahead of sister brand Renault (-2%) at 5.8%. Peugeot (+11.2%) and BMW (+4.3%) also defy the negative market in the remainder of the Top 10. Further down, Cupra is up 16.4%, Volvo up 13.6% and Tesla off -70.2%.

Over in the models charts, the Fiat Panda (-40.9%) stays on course despite a mediocre year-on-year evolution. The Dacia Sandero (+11%) defies the negative market to remain in 2nd place overall. The Citroen C3 (+36.2%) finally benefits from the new generation and climbs back up 12 spots on last month to #3. The Jeep Avenger (+16.4%) is toppled to #4 but remains #3 year-to-date. Outstanding result for the Toyota Yaris (+120.1%) overtaking its sibling the Yaris Cross (-2.6%). The rest of the Top 10 all post positive results: the Peugeot 208 (+67.7%) is the most dynamic followed by the VW T-Roc (+34%), Renault Captur (+16%) and Clio (+5.6%). The Toyota C-HR (+24.5%) lodges a second ever Top 20 finish at #19 while the Dacia Spring (+195.9%) rallies back up to #20, its highest ranking since October 2021. The new Alfa Romeo Junior makes its entrance inside its home Top 50 directly at #29.
