This is a typical pick-up line in Sweden |
Just when I thought pick-up sales around Europe followed a pattern, along comes Sweden. VW usually follows in the wake of Ford and Japanese brands but here it has a clear lead. The Ranger is generally top in this region but is fourth. What is the same is the three at the bottom.
If the three derived from the Nissan Navara are combined, collectively they do very well. The Fullback added to the Triton also lifted it out of the also-ran category briefly. What it does show is that brands using the same basic model didn't canabalise sales off each other.
