The Bulgarian new car market totals 2,032 registrations in May, adding up to 9,247 units so far in 2013. This month Toyota is the most popular brand in the country thanks to 223 sales and 11% but remains #2 year-to-date at 9.5% below Volkswagen, #3 this month at 8%, totalling 974 units year-to-date for a 10.5% market share. Dacia is the winner of the month, up 3 spots to 2nd place with 209 sales and 10.3% and this is reflected in the models ranking, as usual very volatile in Bulgaria. The Toyota Yaris has the honours of snapping up the sales charts’ pole position thanks to 69 sales and 3.4%, while Dacia places two models inside the Bulgarian podium…

Dacia Sandero 2013Dacia Sandero

The Dacia Dokker improves on an already world-best month of April to land in 2nd place at 61 units and 3% share, followed by the Dacia Sandero with 57 sales and 2.8%. Note the Dokker ranked 5th with 2.7% share this month at home in Romania, once again making Bulgaria its best country in the world. Dacia also sees the Logan sedan jump up 31 spots on April to #11 and the Lodgy up 57 ranks to #27 while the Logan MCV, #1 in 2012, is back up 50 ranks to a still very shy #41 as we wait for the new generation of the model to hit local dealerships.

Another outstanding performer in Bulgaria this month is the Peugeot 301, up 9 spots to #4 with 51 sales and 2.5%, making Bulgaria the model’s 2nd best performing country in the world below Algeria where it ranked #2 this month. Other great performers include the Chevrolet Aveo up 9 ranks to #6, the Toyota Avensis up 10 to #10 and BMW 5 Series at #14. Update on the locally-produced Great Wall models: the Voleex C10 is down 19 ranks on last month to #21, the Steed is down 10 to #47 and the Hover is up 51 to #93. Overall, Great Wall is #17 brand this month vs. #14 year-to-date and #6 in 2012…
