Singapore Passenger Car Sales : 2026 (Jan-Feb)

Registrations were up 3% in February and up 26% YTD. For a market that is open to all brands and doesn't have a local hero to support, it's amazing that BYD has captured 25% of it. One in every four cars!

Toyota and Lexus are inexplicably lumped together yet well and truly second. Sure, 15.7% market share is good but to be left behind like that is not often what Toyota experiences. Tesla is solid in third place. So the top three have over half of the total sales. 

The next three are doing it tough, then we have Chery and MG coming after them. Chinese car manufacturers have surplus production capacity and they want to utlilise that to a greater extent. Singapore is part of the solution. 

Please note: The 2025 share below is for the complete year.

Mauritius Passenger Car Sales : 2026 (Jan-Feb)

Registrations were down 39% in the first two months of 2026! Higher duties on cars starting in July 2025 has led to a sales slump ever since. This sort of upheaval produces drastic movements and we see that here. The percentage movements listed below are crazy, even for a smaller market which usually has more volatility.

Suzuki went to the top in 2022 and stayed there since but this year both sales volume and market share have taken a real hit. The 2025 share below is for the complete year but already its experienced a 5.6% loss of market share which is substantial.

Estonia PC/LCV Sales : 2026 (Jan-Feb)

Registrations were down 49% last year, but in two months of 2026 they are up 115%! This sort of upheaval produces drastic movements and we see that here. The 2025 share below is for the complete year.

Škoda has returned to the top spot. It has occasionally done this before but only for a year at a time. The 22% increase in market share against a 30% drop for Toyota is striking. Will it be sustained? We can expect more of the unexpected as the year unfolds.
