Based on data shared by our Central European market data partner CE Auto, the Moldovan new car market drops 22.1% year-on-year to 458 sales, but September 2017 was the theatre of a freak event with 95 Renault Master minibuses registered after being donated by the Romanian government. The year-to-date total remains frankly in positive at +19.6% to 4.562 units. After giving up its throne to three successive Dacia models in as many months (Dokker in June, Logan MCV in July and Duster in August), the Dacia Logan reclaims the pole position it holds YTD for the first time since last May despite dropping 18% year-on-year. The Dacia Duster (-29%) retrogrades to #2 while the Kia Sportage and Picanto follow.
