Switzerland Car Sales : 2025 (Jan-Apr)

Registrations were down 7% in April and down 8% YTD. So things are a bit subdued down at the local car dealer. 

VW overtook long time leader Opel in 1999 and has led ever since....until 2025. Of course, there are eight months for that to change but for now a major change. 

It's hard to believe that Opel is now 22nd but they are not the brand they were last century so in that sense not surprising. 

Apart from the strong Germanic presence, Japanese and Korean do quite well but China has had little impact so far.

VW Tiguan - 1,322
