After a one month hiatus, Croatia is back on BSCB with March sales up a very dynamic 13% year-on-year to 3,466 registrations, bringing the first quarter total to 8,104 units, up 11% on 2014. Volkswagen dominates the brands ranking as usual with 479 sales and 13.8% share, while Opel takes the second spot this month with 430 units and 12.4% share thanks partly to runout sales of the previous gen Corsa (#2 at 7.5%). Dacia splendidly rounds up the podium at an excellent 384 sales and 11.1% share, and places the Sandero in the models pole position like in February, this time with 291 units and 8.4%, its best-ever share in the country. The VW Golf remains at #3 but is still #1 year-to-date, the Renault Clio is up 4 spots on last month to #4, the Opel Astra up 9 to #7 and the Suzuki Swift up 8 to #10. Notice also the Dacia Dokker up to a best-ever #14, its first time in the Croatian Top 20, and the Audi A3 and Citroen C3 rounding up the Top 20.
