by In the first half of the year, nearly 40,000 new cars were sold in our country. The Ukrainian car market showed moderate growth of 7% as a result of six months.
The most popular car models in 2018 have been identified. According to Auto-Consulting, in the first half of the year, the Ukrainian market saw two leaders: the Renault Duster crossover and Volkswagen Golf both found 1447 buyers.
As you might have guessed, the Golf showed such unexpected results primarily due to diesel wagons from the USA, which even sparked a scandal.
Diesel versions also helped the Audi A3 rise to third place with 1414 cars sold and a record sales growth of 5556%. The top five also included the Toyota RAV4 (1329 cars) and Camry (1173).
It’s also interesting that the Top 25 car market includes 14 crossovers and SUVs. Among the leaders are four Toyota models, with Nissan, Renault, and Skoda each having three.
