For the first time since we’ve been following Algerian new car sales monthly, the Toyota Hilux is up 8 spots on June to become the best-selling vehicle in the country thanks to 1,712 sales. It is however still #7 year-to-date at 10,451 units. The Peugeot 301 is back up one rank to a spectacular 2nd place with 1,667 sales, and is also #2 year-to-date at 17,138 units. A readjustment of Dacia Logan sales indeed put it above the 301 for only 40 sales at 17,178 units. While we’re with the Logan, thanks to the new generation now widely available across the country, the Dacia sedan is back inside the Algerian Top 10 this month at #4 with 1,363 sales. That’s 127 less than its twin sister the Renault Symbol, #3 at 1,490 units. Renault indeed sells both models in the country, with the Logan less equipped and priced below the Symbol to avoid cannibalisation. Finally, notice the Chevrolet Spark up to #7 with 1,134 sales.
