Sales Figures & Rankings for Passenger Cars Sold in Europe

2022 Best Selling Passenger Cars In Europe (All Models Ranked)

According to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association (ACEA), total passenger car sales in Europe in 2022 were 11.3 million units, down 4.6% from 2021. This was the first decline in European passenger car sales since 2012. The decline in sales was due to a number of factors, including the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and the global semiconductor shortage.

These models are popular among European consumers due to their affordability, fuel efficiency, and practicality. Other popular passenger car models in Europe in 2022 included the Ford Fiesta, the Renault Clio, the Volkswagen Polo, the Opel Corsa, and the Hyundai i20. It is important to note that the European passenger car market is expected to remain challenging in the coming years. However, there are a number of trends that are shaping the market and creating opportunities for automakers.

One trend is the growing popularity of electric vehicles. Electric vehicle sales in Europe are expected to continue to grow in the coming years, as governments introduce more incentives to promote the adoption of electric vehicles. Another trend is the shift towards autonomous driving. Automakers are investing heavily in autonomous driving technology. This technology is still in its early stages, but it is expected to have a major impact on the auto industry in the coming years.

Additionally, the European Union is committed to reducing carbon emissions. This is likely to lead to further changes in the European passenger car market, as automakers focus on developing more fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly vehicles.

Overall, the European passenger car market is expected to remain challenging in the coming years. However, there are a number of trends that are shaping the market and creating opportunities for automakers. Automakers that are able to adapt to these trends and develop vehicles that meet the needs of European consumers will be well-positioned to succeed in the future.
