Spain Top 50 Models: 2025 (Jan-Oct)

Registrations were up 16% in October and up 15% YTD. For the ten months so far, BEV and PHEV market share is 19%, up from 11% in 2024. 

The local brands are SEAT and Cupra but it is a very diverse market with many brands vying for leadership. 

The Dacia Sandero has a huge lead on the rest of the models and is the fifth most popular brand in Spain. The MG ZS is the second most popular model with the brand at tenth. 

Toyota is the top selling brand with sales spread among several popular models. Renault is the second ranked brand with the Clio leading the way. 

A few Chinese brand names are appearing on the list and surely that will increase.

France Top 50 Models: 2025 (Jan-Oct)

Passenger car sales were up 2.9% in October but down 5.4% YTD. Hybrid market share has gone from 41% to 51% of the total, with electric cars up from 17% to 19% share. 

In October Stellantis and Group Renault both have 26% market penetration. YTD it is 29% and 27% respectively.

To the right we have the usual colour coded chart showing the best selling passenger car models and which region they are associated with.

There is no surprise that French brands and those owned by them are doing well. In addition, both the Yaris and Yaris Cross are also made in France.

Estonia Top 50 Models: 2025 (Jan-Oct)

Registrations were down 53% in October and down 43% YTD. Taxes applied to cars from 2025 caused a spike in sales in late 2024, followed by the inevitable slump. 

Toyota, Škoda and VW are the three leading brands here and that shows in the chart to the right. They each have seven models in the top 50. 

By colour coding the list, it quickly becomes apparent where the brands hail from. 34 are from Europe (green), 12 are from Japan (blue) and the other 4 are from the rest of Asia.
