The Swedish market is down 15.5% in 2021 compared to 2019
- The Swedish automobile market (passenger cars) remained at a very low level in 2021 compared to 2019 (-15.5%), a level which remains very slightly above that of 2020 (+3.0%). In total, Sweden registered 300,983 passenger cars last year, compared to 292,024 in 2020 and 356,036 in 2019. This is the lowest figure recorded since 2014, after that of 2020.
- The reasons given for this very low level of registrations in 2021 relate to the deficient supply of the semiconductors that car manufacturers need to make their cars marketable. But it could be that the sharp increase in the average price of cars is holding back purchases and encouraging potential customers to keep their vehicles longer.
- The ranking by brand shows that the national Volvo brand remains the Swedish market leader, with 48,220 units, ahead of Volkswagen (37,902 units), Kia (29,867 units) and Toyota (23,921 units).
- By groups, Volkswagen remains the Swedish market leader in 2021 (76,554 units), ahead of Geely-Volvo (48,220 units), Hyundai-Kia (38,689 units), Toyota (25,346 units) and Stellantis (23,489 units).
- The top-selling models in 2021 were the Volvo S60/V60 (14,916 units), Volvo XC40 (12,242 units) and Volvo XC60 (11,942 units). These three models of the national brand are ahead of the Kia Ceed/Proceed/XCeed (11,399 units) and Kia Niro (10,311 units). The SUVs here occupy three places among the top five sales on the Swedish market in 2021.
