The Slovenian new car market confirms it is now back in shape, delivering its third consecutive month of year-on-year growth at a very healthy +17% in June to 5,845 registrations, which brings the year-to-date total up to an almost identical level compared to the first 6 months of 2012 at 28,229 units, down 0.3%. Exceptional score of the locally-produced Renault Clio this month: it grabs a huge 12.3% market share thanks to 718 sales, which is almost 2.5 times as much as the #2. Note the last 3 generations of the model are included in this tally. The Kia Cee’d is the other outstanding performer this month, up one further spot to land in 2nd place at 292 units and 5% share, which pushes it up to #3 year-to-date, passing the VW Polo. The VW Golf rounds up the podium this month at 4.5% but remains #2 year-to-date at 5%.
