Local behemoth Skoda (-29.1%) falls almost twice as fast as the market to 28.8% share vs. 32% so far this year. Hyundai (-14.4%) and Volkswagen (-4.6%) fare much better and close out the podium like they do year-to-date. Dacia (+59.6%) is up 7 spots on May to a fantastic 4th place with 7% share vs. 4.5% over H1. But it’s Ford (+74.4%) that manages the largest YoY gain in the Top 10. Toyota (-9.5%), Kia (-11.9%) and Mercedes (-15.2%) also beat the market whereas Seat (-40.6%) and Peugeot (-37.3%) struggle. Just below, Cupra (+187.9%) continues to surge ahead at #12 and is getting ever closer to its sister brand Seat.

Over in the models ranking, the Skoda Fabia (-34.5%) reclaims the top spot both for June and year-to-date despite a hefty year-on-year loss.
