New car sales in Italy reach a record level in 1992 at 2,374,775 registrations. The Fiat Uno is very stable in pole position with 336,262 sales and 14.2% share. The Fiat Panda reclaims its 2nd spot at 158,641 units (6.7%), just above the Ford Fiesta at 157,827 (6.6%). The Renault Clio gains one spot in 4th place and 5% share, passing the Fiat Tipo (4.9%).

VW Golf

Below the Lancia Y10 (4.3%) and the VW Polo (3.9%), the new gen VW Golf is 8th at 92,243 units, which doesn’t reflect its impressive progression throughout the year: it ranked #3 in August and December, and even #2 in November. The Fiat Cinquecento, launched in late ’91, reaches an encouraging 7th place with 10,012 sales in March but did not improve on it this year. It finishes 1992 in 12th place only.
