There has been a strong rise in the number of cars being registered across Europe’s biggest markets.<\/p>\n
Data from JATO Dynamics saw a 9.3 per cent increase in registrations during August, following a two per cent decline in the previous month.<\/p>\n
In total, registrations for August totaled 562,046 – up from 514,428 in August 2015.<\/p>\n
Italy reported the largest increase with a 20.2 per cent rise in registrations, while UK also saw a positive growth of 3.3 per cent increase.<\/p>\n
VW remains Europe’s largest car maker with a 5.8 per cent increase, however, its total market share fell from 26.3 per cent in August 2015 to 25.5 per cent in 2016.<\/p>\n
“As the market continues to shift and Volkswagen brands continues to slowdown, other brands continue to improve in the mainstream market, such as Dacia, Fiat and Hyundai-Kia which have all seen strong growth, whilst in the premium market, Mercedes is continuing to perform well,” said Felipe Munoz, Global Automotive Analyst at JATO Dynamics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
