The Light Commercial Vehicle market is surprisingly robust this month in France, stable year-on-year at 34,174 registrations and bringing the year-to-date total to 137,343 units, down 5% on 2011. The Renault Kangoo leads the way for the 4th consecutive time with 3,734 sales and 10.9%, its highest share in the last 12 months. At #2 the Fiat Ducato continues to progress, even reaching its highest market share ever in France at 8.6% thanks to 2,945 units sold. The Renault Clio rounds up the podium at 7.4%.

Nissan NV400

And this is pretty much all there is to say about this month ranking, particularly uneventful with the entire Top 12 absolutely identical to last month! Interesting moves are found way down the track with the Citroen DS3 up 12 spots to #44, the Nissan NV400 breaking into the monthly Top 50 for the first time at #47 and the Mercedes A-Class up 34 ranks to #65.
