Ukraine April 2026: Renault Duster back to pole position, Mazda up 191.5%

The Renault Duster is the best-selling vehicle in Ukraine in April.

5,612 new cars hit Ukrainian roads in April, a steep -7.4% year-on-year decline, leaving the year-to-date tally hanging by a threat at +0.3% to 20,056 units. Toyota (-5.7%) remains in the brands pole position with 12.5% share, with the Top 4 identical to last month. Renault (+1.5%) takes the 2nd spot ahead of Volkswagen (-21.9%) and Skoda (-23.1%) both in dire straits. In contrast Mazda (+191.5%), BYD (+40.1%), BMW (+16.9%) and Hyundai (+14.2%) ignore the negative context with splendid YoY lifts. 

Model-wise, the Renault Duster (-16.9%) returns to #1 for the second time this year after last January but remains #2 year-to-date below the Toyota RAV4 (+22.9% in April). The Hyundai Tucson (+4.3%) stays at #3 ahead of the Skoda Kodiaq (-28.8%) and Karoq (+21.1%). The Mazda CX-5 (+166.7%) sports a stunning gain with the Nissan Qashqai (+17.5%) and VW Tiguan (+5.5%) also in positive in the remainder of the Top 10. The VW Touareg (-35.9%), despite a catastrophic YoY loss, still ranks at a world best #7 and is #6 so far this year. The BYD Sealion 6 is the most popular recent launch at #9. Note the Top 14 best-sellers are all SUVs.
