French new Light Commercial Vehicle sales in June align themselves with their level year-to-date, down 9% in both cases at 34,763 and 188,231 registrations respectively. It’s a tough year for the Renault Kangoo, traditional leader in the French LCV ranking. It was toppled from its throne twice in the last 3 months by the Fiat Ducato in March and May in what was a first in the history of automobile in France for a foreign model. Now it only earns back its top spot for 45 sales at 2,765 units and 8% vs. 2,720 and 7.8% for the Renault Master.

Dacia Dokker

The Fiat Ducato is down 2 spots to #3 with 2,462 sales and 7.1% but remains 2nd year-to-date at 14,064 units and 7.5%. Other great performers this month include the Renault Trafic up 3 ranks to #4, the Renault Clio IV also up 3 to #6, the Mercedes Sprinter maintaining itself inside the Top 10 at #10 and the Dacia Dokker up 11 spots to a best-ever #23 at 1.1% market share.
