The Macedonian new car market continues to struggle: down 20% year-on-year in April to 298 registrations which brings the year-to-date total to 1,266 units, down 10% on 2012. Last month Macedonia became the first country in the world where the Skoda Rapid managed to grab the top spot, and it confirms in April but this time getting rid of the VW Golf to be alone in pole position with 25 sales and an improved 8.4% market share.

The Rapid is #3 year-to-date at 67 units and 5.3% behind the Golf at 89 sales and 7% and the Skoda Yeti at 159 and 12.6% solely thanks to deliveries to the Ministry of Interior back in January. Notice also the Ford Fiesta up 4 spot on March to #3, the Ford Focus up to #4 and now #10 year-to-date and the Chevrolet Spark (#8), Seat Leon (#9) and Toyota Auris (#10) making their appearance in the Macedonian Top 10.
