June new car sales are down 6% year-on-year in Europe to 1,175,363 registrations, once again the weakest June result in 20 years. This brings the 6 months 2013 total to 6,436,743 units, down 7% on 2012. However analysts agree the market may have bottomed out and although the 2nd half of the year should also be down on last year, the decline should reduce further. ACEA has made the European brands ranking available and although there is no surprise on top with Volkswagen leading the way (-7%), Ford impresses and is one of only two brands in the Top 15 to improve its results year-on-year at +7% to 90,629 units, although its year-to-date sales are still down 10% on 2012.
