Nissan Qashqai

The situation is getting worse and worse in Spain, with July new car sales down 17% year-on-year to 65,481 registrations, the worst July on record in the country. Year-to-date sales are down 10% to 472,082 units. With the IVA tax on cars set to increase on September 1, predictions for the Full Year 2012 are now below 700,000 units or a level not seen in Spain since the mid-eighties. In this gloomy context, the Nissan Qashqai is the most popular model in the country for only the third time ever after December 2010 and January 2012 thanks to 1,940 sales for a 3% market share. It is #2 year-to-date at 3.1%.

Kia Sportage

Just 10 units below, the Seat Ibiza ranks #2 and stays in pole position year-to-date with 17,668 units and 3.7%. The Renault Megane is stable in third place with 1,862 sales and 2.8% and is also #3 year-to-date with 14,035 units and 3%. Other great performers in the Top 10 include the Opel Astra up 8 spots on June to #7 and the Renault Clio up 5 to #8. The Peugeot 208 slips down one rank to #11 but stays at 2% market share thanks to 1,294 sales.

Seat Mii

Further down, the Hyundai ix35 is up 11 spots to #17, the Kia Sportage up 16 to #22, the Audi Q3 up 15 to #33, the Alfa Romeo Giulietta up 23 to #37, the Kia Cee’d up 20 to #41 while the Seat Mii breaks into the Spanish Top 50 for the first time, up 20 ranks on June to #47 with 440 sales and 0.7%. Notice also the Dacia Lodgy up to #88, the BMW X6 up to #120, the Toyota Prius+ up to #125 and two newcomers in the Top 200: the Toyota GT86 at #190 and the Chevrolet Malibu at #200.

    Haven’t forgotten you Matt, just have no time because of work to sit down and have a good rummage through the collection at the moment. Maybe in next week or so.

    Hi there,
    I looked at the Spanish statistics’ web site for ANFAC (auto association) and they give a different tally for the top selling cars; in particular the Megane is #1
    Here is the link: http://www.anfac.com/estad.htm
    Not sure where the glitch is but in any case I LOVE your site; I was ranking top selling cars per month in France when I was a kid (ahhhh… the epic battle between the 205 and the 5!) and now I just have to surf the web :=)))
    Merci !

      Salut Didier,
      Great to see you are enjoying the site!
      ANFAC combines sales of MPV versions, so adds up the Megane with the Scenic, the C4 Picasso with the C4, the Golf with Golf plus, C3 Picasso with C3, C-Max with Focus, etc. Hence the different ranking.
      You sound like me! The battle between the 205 and the Supercinq was what kick started my fascination for car sales :)
      Bon vent
      Matt
