2014 Best Selling Passenger Cars In Europe (All Models Ranked)
In 2014, the European car market continued its recovery trajectory after the extended downturn following the 2008 financial crisis. The market saw growth, and consumer confidence began to rebuild. 2014 was a positive year for the European car market, with sales witnessing a growth of around 5% compared to 2013. This was one of the first significant rebounds in sales since the downturn began.
While Europe as a whole saw growth, it was not uniform.
