New car sales in Denmark are down year-on-year for the second time in the past 3 months in January at -1.5% to 16,031 registrations. Change of guard atop the Danish models ranking this month: after 29 (!) consecutive months of reign, the VW Up tumbles down to #6 in January to give up its throne to the Peugeot 108, accessing to the monthly pole position for the first time anywhere in the world with a royal 1,134 sales and 7.1% share. It’s a bumper month for French manufacturer Peugeot in Denmark, also placing the 208 at #2 and the 308 at #9. The Mitsubishi Space Star stuns by rounding up the podium with 611 units and 3.8% while the Toyota Yaris impresses at #5.
