Toyota Group sold 10.5 million vehicles in 2021
- The Toyota group (Toyota, Daihatsu, Lexus, Hino) has published its sales figures for the year 2021. Its worldwide sales amount to 10.5 million units including heavy goods vehicles, which represents an increase 10.1% compared to 2020, which partly offsets the 11.3% drop recorded in 2020 compared to 2019. The group, which remains the world's leading manufacturer ahead of Volkswagen (8.9 million) and Renault- Nissan (7.7 million) is therefore almost back to its 2019 level.
- The Toyota group had a better year in 2021 than these two main competitors, no doubt because it is the only one of the three not to have invested in electric motorization, continuing to offer a range of inexpensive vehicles. However, the Japanese manufacturer intends to take the plunge from 2025, since it presented around fifteen prototypes of electric vehicles at the end of 2021 which will be marketed from 2025. By brand, Toyota sold 8,855,145 vehicles, Lexus 760,012, Daihatsu 725 179 and Hino 155 212.
- The Toyota Group's global sales in 2021 break down as follows:
§ The United States is its largest market, with 2.33 million vehicles, or 22% of its global sales.
§ Japan becomes its second market, with 2.06 million vehicles, or 20% of its global sales.
§ China is its third largest market, with 1.66 million vehicles, or 16% of its global sales.
§ Europe is its fourth largest market, with 996,000 vehicles, or 9.5% of its global sales.
- For the first time, the Toyota group is both the sales leader in the United States and in Japan.

Volkswagen Group sold 8.9 million vehicles in 2021
- The Volkswagen group sold 8,882,000 vehicles worldwide in 2021, representing a drop of 4.5% compared to 2020 and 17.2% compared to 2019, due to the shortage of electronic chips according to the manufacturer. This is the lowest figure for ten years. Its sales nevertheless increased by 15.6% in North America last year, to 908,400 units (including 671,800 in the United States) and by 5.1% in South America, to 514,600 units, but they declined in Europe (-2.7%) and China (-14.1%). Sales fell to 3,518,700 units in Europe and 3,304,800 units in China.
- Two of the group's brands were particularly affected. Volkswagen saw its passenger car sales fall by 8.1% worldwide (mainly in China) and its light commercial vehicle sales by 3.2%. They fell to 4,896,900 units and 359,500 units respectively. Skoda saw global sales fall 12.6% last year to 878,200 units, mainly due to a slump in China as the Jetta brand eventually replaced Skoda in that market. Audi saw its own stagnate (-0.7%) at 1,680,500 units. Conversely, Seat/Cupra (+10.3%) and Porsche (+10.9%) saw their sales increase, to 470,500 units and 301,900 units respectively.
- The three luxury brands (Bentley, Bugatti, Lamborghini) totaled 23,100 units (including 14,600 Bentleys and 8,400 Lamborghinis), representing an increase of 23.6% compared to 2020. MAN truck brands (151 000 units) and Scania (90,400 units) grouped in the Traton division also grew strongly (+27.8% and +25.4% respectively).

The Korean group becomes the fourth largest manufacturer in the world, behind Toyota, Volkswagen and Renault-Nissan because the GM group is downgraded to sixth place. However, the gap with the Stellantis group remains very small and we will have to wait until 2023 to find out whether or not the Korean manufacturer will succeed in supplanting the Stellantis group.
- Sales of the Korean group break down into 3.69 million vehicles of the Hyundai brand (representing an increase of 3.9%, 2.78 million vehicles of the Kia brand and 0.2 million vehicles of the recent Genesis brand (which is the manufacturer's Premium brand, like Lexus for Toyota, Infiniti for Nissan or Acura for Honda).

§ The USA remains its largest market, with 1.49 million units, or 22% of its global sales.

The Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi group sold 7.7 million vehicles in 2021
- The Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi group sold 7.7 million light vehicles (VP+LCV) in 2021, down 0.9% compared to 2020. Compared to 2019, the group is down 23% because 2020 had been a particularly bad year.
- Among the group's three entities, the Renault group is down 4.5% compared to 2020 (to 2.7 million vehicles) and loses more than one million units compared to 2019, the Nissan group is up 0.9% (to 4.06 million vehicles) but lost more than a million units compared to 2019, and finally Mitsubishi was up 12% (to 920,000 vehicles) but lost 330,000 units compared to 2019. In total, the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi group lost 117,000 vehicles in 2021 compared to 2020 and 2,500,000 vehicles compared to 2019. But the manufacturer, which remains the third largest manufacturer in the world behind Toyota and Volkswagen , indicated that profitability now comes before volumes, which may explain this drop in sales.
- Global sales in 2021 of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi group break down as follows:
§ Europe remains its largest market, with 1.92 million vehicles, or 25% of its global sales.
§ China is its second market, with 1.19 million vehicles, or 15% of its global sales.

Stellantis Group sold 6.2 million vehicles in 2021

Stellantis Group sold 6.2 million vehicles in 2021
- The Stellantis group (Peugeot, Citroën, Opel, Vauxhall, DS, Fiat, Abarth, Alfa-Roméo, Lancia, Maserati, Jeep, Chrysler, Dodge, Ram) sold 6.2 million light vehicles (PC+LCV) in 2021 , up 1.3% compared to 2020 if we combine the PSA and FCA groups present at the time. The Stellantis group manages in its first year to rise to fifth place among global manufacturers, behind Toyota, Volkswagen, Renault-Nissan and Hyundai-Kia.
- The merger of PSA and FCA made it possible to rebalance the distribution of sales worldwide, since the PSA group mainly sold its vehicles in Europe and the FCA group in North America (thanks to the Chrysler group).
- As we announced last year, sales of the Stellantis group are therefore almost half in Europe and just over a quarter in the United States. Brazil is the group's fourth largest market, thanks to Fiat's strong presence in this country.
- The worldwide sales in 2021 of the Stellantis group break down as follows:
§ Europe is its largest market, with 2.98 million vehicles, or 48% of its global sales.
§ The United States is its second market, with 1.78 million vehicles, or 29% of its global sales.
§ Brazil is its third largest market, with 635,000 vehicles, or 10% of its global sales.
These three markets represent 87% of the global sales of the Stellantis group.
- China represents only 2% of its global sales in 2021.
