Finally some great news coming from Southern Europe: the Slovenian new car market is up a very robust 10% year-on-year in August to 3,373 registrations, bringing the year-to-date total to 35,831 units, up 1% on 2012. The trend we have observed last month intensifies: the Kia Cee’d tests new heights in Slovenia and sells 233 units for a record 6.9% market share, that’s only 17 sales below the country’s traditional leader the Renault Clio at 250 units and 7.4%. The Cee’d is however still #3 year-to-date below the VW Golf, down to #4 this month.
