Colombia Passenger Car Sales : 2025

Registrations were up 26% which meant that most brands increased their volume. However, the 'Share' column below reveals who gained or lost market share. I included taxi registrations as they are passenger cars. Sales are up 6% compared to the average for the last ten years. 

Kia confirmed its top spot for a second year, having displaced Renault in 2023. It has extended its lead this year. Chevrolet was the number one brand back in 2016 but has now slipped to sixth. As is often the case, a jump in sales generally isn't replicated with premium marques.   

Nearly 4,700 new taxis joined the fleet, with Kia and Hyundai accounting for nearly 3,800 of them. It seems people are switching taxis for cars with taxi sales dropping 11.5% compared to the hike in car sales.
