Denmark April 2024: Renault Megane E-Tech scores first win in market surging 27%

The Renault Megane E-Tech signs its first ever monthly win in the word.

The Danish new car market is up a splendid 27% year-on-year in April to 15,323 sales, tilting the year-to-date tally into positive at +0.4% and 52,244 units. Peugeot (+743.2%) spectacularly takes the lead of the brands ranking, up from #5 in March and now up to #2 year-to-date vs. #7 over the Full Year 2023. Volkswagen (+12.5%) and Toyota (+19.5%) both trail the market to close out the podium. Toyota (+19%) stays #1 year-to-date. The next five carmakers all vastly outpace the average growth, with Renault (+132.7%) and Citroen (+107.1%) the most dynamic followed by Volvo (+75.8%), BMW (+53.2%) and Mercedes (+40.7%). Tesla crashes -41.1% to #11 and now ranks #4 so far this year. Xpeng repeats at #20 while Hongqi is up to #28.

We have a fresh top 2 models ranking this month: the Renault Megane E-Tech (+213.6%) brilliantly takes the lead of the charts for the first time, it is also the first time it ever ranks #1 anywhere in the world. The new Volvo EX30 is up 20 spots on March to land at #3 with a round 4% share. The Peugeot 208 (+716.2%) and Citroen C3 (+805.6%) compensate for dreadful year-ago results while the VW ID.4 (+117%) is also in great shape at #5. The Model Y (-30.2%) drops to an unusually low 6th place but stays #1 year-to-date with 5.2% of the market. The Peugeot 5008 (+35700%!), 3008 (+1494.7%) and 2008 (+435.3%) all post surreal lifts below.
