Volkswagen Group breaks its sales records (PC+UV) in 2019
- The Volkswagen group (Volkswagen, Audi, Skoda, Seat, Porsche, Bentley, Lamborghini, Bugatti, MAN, Scania) again broke its sales record in 2019, with a volume of 10.97 million vehicles, against 10.83 million units in 2018, which represents an increase of 1.3%.
- The Volkswagen group therefore remained the world's leading vehicle maker, when heavy utility vehicles (HUV) are included, ahead of the Toyota (10.74 million) and Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi (10.2 million) groups. Compared to 2018, the Volkswagen group increased its spread over the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi group, as the Franco-Japanese carmaker saw its sales drop significantly in 2019, due to the dropout of Nissan (-8.4% ).
- The breakdown of the top five brands from the Volkswagen group in 2019 is as follows:
• 6,278,300 Volkswagen (+ 0.5%),
• 1,845,600 Audi (+ 1.8%),
• 1,242,800 Skoda (-0.9%) ,
• 574,100 Seat (+ 10.9%),
• 280,800 Porsche (+ 9.6%).
- The global distribution of the sales shows that Volkswagen did not suffer too much from the decline in the Chinese market (37% of its sales), as the carmaker remained stable (+ 0.7%) in a market down by 9.6%. In Europe (41% of its sales), the group was able to benefit from the successive and numerous launches of SUVs, and recorded an increase in sales of 3.9%. In South America, it recorded a 3.2% increase in sales.
On the other hand, in North America, it recorded a 0.5% drop in sales.
