2013 Europe Auto Sales Figures – By Manufacturer (Automaker Rankings)

2013 Europe Automotive Sales by Automaker – The Best-Selling Automotive Manufacturers By Sales Volume

The biggest absolute declines are by PSA, with Peugeot and Citroën losing almost 124.000 sales combined, at -6.7% and -10.5% respectively. Citroën was passed by both BMW and Mercedes-Benz in the models ranking. Looking at relative declines, Alfa Romeo at -28.4%, Lancia/Chrysler at -20.1% and Chevrolet at -17.5% suffer the biggest hits in market share. Chevrolet was surpassed by Mini in annual sales, falling to 18th place in the brands ranking, while Alfa Romeo sold even fewer cars than Smart. The double-digit losses of Alfa Romeo, Lancia/Chrysler and also Jeep caused the Fiat Group to be overtaken by Hyundai-Kia, despite the fact that the Koreans didn’t have an excellent year themselves. Sales at Kia remained flat, while Hyundai suffered its first annual sales decline since 2008.

For Opel/Vauxhall, it was the first time since 2010 and the second time since 2001 (!) the brand didn’t lose market share in Europe, finally a bright spot for the troubled brand, that will operate without its Korean-American sister brand Chevrolet from 2016.
