Portugal Passenger Car Sales : 2024 (Jan-Aug)











Registrations for August were down 9% but YTD up 3%. Peugeot is into its fourth year at the top, having dethroned long time leader Renault. Budget brand Dacia is nicely placed in third spot. I'm all for the success of any brand like this that can make a business case for low cost motoring. Not everyone can afford or wants to commit excess funds for personal mobility.

Mercedes-Benz is very popular here as it pulls away from BMW and Audi is well down the list. Toyota is reasonably popular but not quite where it often is, somewhere around the top. BYD and MG are two that are making progress but will it continue?
