Matt, the Clio is a hit in Portugal, there are lots of them and last year was best selling car here. the Mégane Hatcback 5 door is also quite successful as well as the Scéncic mainly the first generation. Renault leads the market a long time ago. The county is passing through a huge economical crisis and new car sales dropped dramatically! Most popular cars are: Renault, Citroen, Peugeot, Ford, Toyota, Seat, Fiat and VW.
Good perfomance for the renault clio!
Hi Miguel,
Thanks for your comment. Actually it is very rare that the Clio doesn’t rank #1 in Slovenia so I would say that the Clio at #3 is very poor in fact!
The Megane and Scenic on the contrary are doing exceptionally well this month…
cheers
Matt
