Belgium February 2026: BYD (+119.3%), Opel (+37.5%) can’t prevent another market fall (-7.7%)
Opel sales are up 37.5% year-on-year in February.
It’s another difficult month for the Belgian new car market with February volume down -7.7% year-on-year to 37,075. This brings the year-to-date tally down -13.2% to 70,072, already more than 10,000 units below the same period in 2025. Encouragingly though, private sales register a year-on-year uptick at +1.6% to 19,909 units whereas fleet sales are down -16.5% to 20,568. Petrol sales are up to 17,527 and 47.3% share whereas BEVs (31.5% share) and HEVs (18.9%) are both down.
In the brands charts, Volkswagen (-4%) resists better than the market and holds onto the top spot with 10.1% share vs. 9.6% last month. Leader over the Full Year 2025, BMW (-23.2%) freefalls to 8.9% share while Renault (-25.9%) is also in a rut even though it gains three spots on January to #3. Peugeot (+11.2%), Dacia (+9%) and Mercedes (+4.3%) defy the negative context with YoY lifts, but it’s Opel (+37.5%) that delivers the best performance in the Top 10, up to #10 vs. #16 over the Full Year 2025. BYD (+119.3%) stands out below, while Tesla its back up 14.2% to #13.
