Big slap for Venezuelan new car sales in June, down a horrid 39% year-on-year to just 7,732 registrations, which brings the year-to-date total to 57,280 units, down 15% on 2012. After ranking 4th in February, third in March and April and 2nd in May, the Mitsubishi Lancer brilliantly takes the lead of the models ranking thanks to an outstanding 752 sales and 9.7% share. This is the first time the Lancer tops the Venezuelan sales charts since the creation of BSCB in 2010! Note the Lancer on sale in Venezuela is still the previous generation originally launched in 2003… The traditional leader, the Chevrolet Aveo, is down to #2 this month at 667 units and 8.6% but holds onto its 2013 year-to-date pole position with 5,717 sals and a round 10% market share.

Excellent performance of the Ford Explorer, up one further rank on May to land on the third step of the podium at 557 units and 7.2% but the biggest surprise this month comes next: whereas it had only sold a mere 15 units last December, the Dodge Forza – a rebadged Fiat Siena – lands directly at #4 with 424 sales and 5.5% share! Now car sales reporting in Venezuela is patchy at best so this may actually be a 6 month-total. Other great performers this month include the Chevrolet Orlando maintaining itself inside the Top 10 at #9 and the Jeep Cherokee up 17 spots to #10. Finally, notice the DongFeng S30 holding onto its #3 spot year-to-date in spite of dropping to #13 this month.
