The Mitsubishi L200 is by far the most popular vehicle in Chile in January.

The Chilean new light vehicle market confirms it is on the mend, securing a 6th year-on-year lift in the past 7 months. January sales are indeed up 2.9% to 25,834 units. We are however still way off the 2022 level of 37,281. This month Suzuki (+36%) takes off to sport its first monthly win since last May. It is followed by Kia (+21.6%) also in outstanding shape and up from #7 in December. Toyota (-24.1%), leader both over the Full Year 2024 and last month, tumbles down to #3. Changan (+36.1%), Ford (+13.2%), Mitsubishi (+10.4%) and GWM (+9%) all post market-beating gains in the remainder of the Top 10. As a whole, Chinese carmakers are up 4.8% to 7,246 sales and 28% share vs. 30% over the Full Year 2024.

Model-wise, the Mitsubishi L200 (+29.6%) is head and shoulders above the competition at 4.1% share, scoring its first win since last October and 4th over the past 12 months. The GWM Poer (+19.5%) also impresses at #2, both models outselling last year’s leader the Toyota Hilux (-32.2%). The Ford Ranger (+60.6%) ensures the Top 4 is entirely composed of pickup trucks, as is usually the case in Chile. The Suzuki Baleno (+21.8%) is the best of the rest ahead of the Kia Soluto (+26.6%) and Chevrolet Groove (+3.7%). The GWM Jolion (+53.1%) lodges another excellent result at #9 after ranking #8 last month.
