You forgot the smart fortwo by the way, which had its best month in many, many years with 275 sales in November.
Bravo Twingo! Bravo for the Ka too that sold 760 units in a small market!!
The Twingo facelift is not yet available in The Netherlands, but it’s still selling great due to affordable packages and tax preferences at the 1.2 and 1.5 dCi models.
