Germany Passenger Car Sales : 2024 (Jan-Apr)










Registrations were up 20% in April and are also ahead 8% YTD. VW is by far the main volume player here with over double the lead over second placed Mercedes-Benz. With 19.3% so far this year, that's the highest percentage since 2016, albeit comparing four months with twelve. 

The three main premium marques all suffered some market share loss although Audi was the only one of the three to actually lose out regarding units sold. Porsche isn't overly successful in Germany but seems to be remedying that in 2024. 

VW's Škoda is now close to passing Audi but it's early days. I estimated SEAT and Cupra based on unique Cupra models and an estimate on the models that overlap. It may slightly favour SEAT but not by much. Sales for these two brands are not separated by KBA
