2013 Best Selling Minivans In Europe (All Models Ranked)
Large Minivans (MPVs)
The large MPV segment in Europe gave a small sign of life in the last quarter of 2013. Sales were down 25% from January through September, but sales were up 14% from October through December. Ford is to credit for this, as it is heavily discounting the outgoing S-Max and Galaxy, as the new generations will finally be presented at the Geneva Autoshow in March 2014, although they might not hit showrooms until early 2015. In the last quarter, S-Max sales are up 60% on 2012 and Galaxy more than doubled its sales on last year.
Despite this last-minute surge, the S-Max has had to give up the segment’s top spot to the Volkswagen Sharan and the Galaxy has been knocked off the podium by the Sharan’s cousin Seat Alhambra, the only model in the top 8 with a year-on-year gain.
