Car Manufacturer Global Sales Q1-17

The first half of 2017 has seen a number of new and interesting models coming onto the market by various car manufacturers.  It’s interesting to view, globally, how each car manufacturer’s sales has been tracking in the first few months of 2017.  According to JATO Dynamics figures, the big winner during the first quarter of 2017 has been the Renault-Nissan Alliance group recording huge growth in sales around the world.

It’s obvious, when you look at the results that Toyota, having sold 1.974 million car and LCV units, still remains at the top while growing at a rate of 11%.  Honda, in fifth position, also shows itself growing nicely overall.  Mercedes and Renault show the greatest growth for the quarter with 18.2% and 14.9%, respectively.  Mercedes-Benz is the fastest growing brand in the top-20 and the biggest luxury brand worldwide.  BMW and Suzuki have also gained greatly in sales over this period with 10% growth apiece.

Where there is market growth there will also be market shrinking, and for Ford, Hyundai, Kia, Audi, Peugeot, Buick and Jeep, their sales in the first quarter of 2017 have taken a dive.
