Thanks to Igor I am now able to share with you a 2012 year-to-date ranking for Ukraine, January 2012 positions and a Top 225 models ranking for the Full Year 2011!
49 years after the launch of the very first ZAZ, the 965, the ZAZ Lanos manages to become the best-selling model in Ukraine for the sixth consecutive year with 10,490 sales, up 11% on 2010. Two Ladas complete the podium: the Samara at 9,537 units and the Priora with 6,610 units.
But this may change in 2012 with the ZAZ Sens taking the lead in January with 483 sales and 3.6%, replaced by the Skoda Octavia in February at 558 units and 4.1% share, making the Octavia the new 2012 year-to-date leader with 896 sales and 3.3%. The ZAZ Lanos is kicked down to 2nd place at 805 units and 2.9%, followed by the VW Polo with 737 sales and 2.7%. Notice also the Geely CK within the Top 10 in February!
Full Year 2011 Top 225, January 2012 Top 185 and 2 months 2012 Top 200 Ranking Tables below.

Probably the clients know why they buy a Lanos. May be they just need a cheap car, no complicated technique, image does not matter, design is less important than just driving and so on.
The next Zhiguli is always a Lada : it is the new Granta.
The survival of the Lanos in the East is a remarkable, barely noticed story in itself. Maybe it will become the next Lada/Zighuli.
in the picture above, thanks to the perspective, it seems to have an enormous front left wheel
what a ridiculous yet nice vehicle!
Well, almost the same in South Africa: a 2001 concept vw polo ( recalled polo vivo there ) is the best selling car! Embarassing too!
How embarassing. A 14-year-old 1997-era Daewoo Lanos is the best selling car in the country…
