Hey Matt! What did I tell you? People are waking up to the fact that HB20 is nothing better than competition. As the end of the tax break takes its toll, Hyundai has not extended the previous prices as have other makers (greedy). With that and maybe soe problems with delivery, it could be that HB20 stays out of top 10 for a while. Onix on the other hand is bringing GM faithful back plus conquering sales. Also watch for Corsa Sedan (Sail/Classic) to do well as they are agressively pricing it. Renault continues to feel loss of production due to factory make over. They should be back strong in March.
It has placed two type of car .Those type of cars are most popular in people choice.
If we follow the list we can see VW Gol and Fiat Uno are most popular.I have a car relevant site same as yours.
Ford and Chevrolet pick up are number one in the world.
If we watch the list carefully we happen to notice that the Volkswagen and Chevrolet cars have been quite consistent in their popularity among the public.These are the two car manufacturers who have been taking steady advancement in the global markets whereas a few others like Fiat and Ford have seen a major decline in the sales all round the globe mostly attributed to the fact that they have been inconsistent in the quality and product features.
