At 7.2%, the Peugeot 208 hits its highest market share since January.

In the brands ranking, Peugeot (+13.4%) slightly outpaces the market to hold a 16.7% share, just above the 16.5% it commands YTD. Renault (-8.6%) is in difficulty but at 15.8% it equals it YTD level. Note end of quarters are traditionally strong months for Renault but it is not the case this time. Citroen (-10.1%) fares even worse but manages to salvage its third place, a mere 300 units below Dacia (+2.6%). Toyota (+60.6%) delivers the largest gain in the Top 10 and overtakes Volkswagen (+7%) to #5 in the YTD order as a result. Mercedes (+55%) and Ford (+35.5%) also impress in the remainder of the Top 10. Kia (+1.5%) can’t catch up with the market but is up two spots on August to #9, while Audi (-8.3%) struggles at #10. Skoda (+63.1%) and Mini (+40.3%) are the best performers of ranks 11 to 20, while further down and in order of sales Cupra (+251.4%), MG (+353.3%), Alfa Romeo (+149%), Lynk & Co (+393.6%) and Jaguar (+140.9%) take off.

Model-wise, the Peugeot 208 (+47.2%) sails off in the distance with a superb year-on-year gain leading it to 7.2% share, its highest since last January (7.4%). Strikingly, the rest of the Top 6 is all in negative, going against the market. The Renault Clio (-10.2%) returns to the #2 spot it holds year-to-date after a dreadful summer (#8 in July and #5 in August). It distances the Dacia Sandero (-12.1%) and Peugeot 2008 (-7.1%) both camping on their August ranking. The Citroen C3 (-17.2%) drops three spots on August to #5 while the Renault Captur (-39.5%) is up five to #5 but registers the worst year-on-year evolution in the Top 35 (!) even though it also ranked #6 a year ago in September 2021. The Toyota Yaris (+49.5%) continues to benefit from the new generation effect at #7 with the Peugeot 308 III staying at #8. The event of the month is the arrival inside the Top 10 of the Renault Megane E-Tech up four ranks on last month to #9. The Dacia Duster (+2.5%) closes the Top 10 but underperforms. Below, notice the Citroen C5 Aircross (+66.5%) and Renault Twingo (+46.1%) making waves.
