The year-to-date tally is up 7.2% to 817,345, also a new record at this stage of the year. Renault (+8.4%) confirms it is the favourite of Turkish customers with 10.4% share vs. 9.3% for Fiat (-15%). Tesla (+731.4%) delivers the performance of the month, smashing all its records at #3 with 8,730 sales and 8.6% share (previous bests #6 with 7,235 sales and 6.1% share last June). Volkswagen (+8.1%) is up but trails the market while Ford (-15.2%) dives and completes the Top 5. Toyota (+93.9%), Hyundai (+23.2%) and Citroen (+22.2%) shine below.
