Including commercial vehicles, 47,780 new cars found a buyer in Belgium in June, adding up to 318,746 halfway through 2014. The Belgian models ranking is once again rather unique this month: the Renault Mégane confirms the sales surge observed in April when it led the market and after dropping to a still very impressive 2nd spot in May it ranks #1 once again in May thanks to 1,382 sales and 2.9% vs. 1,333 and 2.8% for the VW Golf. The Golf however keeps the lead year-to-date by far at 9,228 units and 2.9% vs. 6,767 and 2.1% for the Mégane. But the big surprise comes in third place: after breaking into the European Top 10 for the first time in May, the Renault Captur brilliantly delivers its first podium ranking in Belgium with 925 sales and 1.9%, outselling the Clio at #4 and 855 units.

Peugeot 308

An entire batch of models also lodge outstanding results this month in Belgium: the Peugeot 308, boosted by the new generation and potentially the station wagon variant now spreading in dealerships across the country, is up 13 spots on May to #7, the Opel Corsa is up 10 to #8, the Skoda Octavia up 18 to #9, Renault Kangoo up 21 to #10 and Opel Mokka up 22 to a best-ever #13 vs. #39 year-to-date. Notice also the Peugeot 2008 dropping to #16 (after a record #8 ranking in May) which is still above the 208 at #20, the Mercedes GLA up to #62, the Tesla Model S up 52 to #126 and the Mercedes V-Class landing at #198.
