Portugal May 2026: Tesla Model 3 #1, BYD Atto 2 inside Top 10

11 June 2026 at 14:47

The BYD Atto 2 breaks into the Portuguese Top 10 in May.

25,080 new cars hit Portuguese roads in May, a 6.5% improvement which is a great result given May 2025 was already up 18.6% on the year prior. The year-to-date tally is now up 9.8% to 110,731. This month Volkswagen (+10.8%) takes the lead of the brands charts with 7.3% share, only 16 sales above traditional leader Peugeot (-27%) in freefall. Mercedes (+3.6%) completes the podium. The best performer in the Top 10 is clearly Tesla (+348.8%) up 4-fold year-on-year and 19 spots on April to #6 with 5.8% share vs. 4% so far this year. BMW (+15%) and Toyota (+14.5%) are also strong in the remainder of the Top 10. Below, BYD (+68.3%) and MG (+39.1%) stand out.

Model-wise, the Tesla Model 3 (+1616.4%) surges ahead to land in pole position for the 5th time in Portuguese history after November 2023, May 2024, September 2024 and September 2025. The Citroen C3 (-2.9%) is back up six spots on last month to #2 while the Peugeot 2008 (-25.6%), in great difficulty, rounds out the podium but remains #1 year-to-date. The Dacia Duster (-9.8%) and Renault Captur (+6.8%) round out the Top 5 ahead of last month’s leader, the Peugeot 208 (+4%). Outstanding month for the Hyundai i20 (+32.9%) up to #8. The other performer of the month is the BYD Atto 2 (+585.7%) up 47 ranks to break into the Top 10 at #10.

Germany private sales May 2026: Tesla Model 3, Model Y and Dacia Sandero most popular

11 June 2026 at 02:00

The Tesla Model 3 is the favourite of German private buyers in May.

Sales to private customers in Germany are up 8.3% year-on-year in May to 85,243 units for a 35.6% Private Sales Ratio (PSR) vs. 32.9% a year ago. The year-to-date tally is up 3.9% to 401,549 and 33.8% PSR vs. 33.7% over the same period in 2025. Volkswagen remains the most popular brand with private customers but has to contend with just 13.4% share vs. 19% in the overall market, due to a low 25.1% PSR. Mercedes (36.5% PSR) stays in 2nd place above Skoda (35.9%) and BMW (28.9%). Dacia is up one spot on last month to #5 with a splendid 77.6% PSR, not as much however as Tesla (87.3% PSR) up six ranks to #6. Leapmotor (88.3% PSR), KGM (77.9%) and Mazda (62.9%) also shine.

Model-wise, Tesla manages a historical 1-2, placing the Model 3 (90.9% PSR) in the lead above the Model Y (83.9%). The Dacia Sandero (85.1%) takes the third spot. The Model Y remains #1 year-to-date. Leader last month, the BMW X1 falls to #4 with 47.9% PSR. The VW T-Roc (28.3%) rounds out the Top 5 like in April. #1 in the overall market, the VW Golf only ranks #6 with private customers due to a paltry 24.3% PSR. It is followed closely by the VW ID.3 at 51.6% PSR.

Poland May 2026: BMW X3 breaks into Top 10 for the first time

9 June 2026 at 11:00

First Top 10 finish for the BMW X3 (including the iX3, pictured).

49,590 new cars hit Polish roads in May, a 6.3% year-on-year improvement. The year-to-date tally is now up 7.4% to 253,067 after five months. Brand leaders Toyota (-6.2%) and Skoda (-7%) can’t capitalise on the market growth but remain in the lead with 13.6% and 10.1% share respectively. Volkswagen (+9.1%) lodges another solid month at $3, distancing BMW (+6.9%) and Kia (+4.9%). Mercedes (-13%) struggles but ensures the Top 6 is identical to April. Dacia (+8.3%), Renault (+5.5%) and Audi (+3%) are also up in the remainder of the Top 10. Below, MG (+39.7%) equals its ranking record at #11 and manages all time high volumes (1,723) and share (3.5%). BYD (+183.2%) is up to #15 and newcomer Chery up to #16 with 2% share. Also new, Jetour breaks into the Top 30 for the first time at #27.

Model-wise, the Toyota Corolla (-9%) stays on top but drops to 3.5% share vs. 4% so far this year. The Skoda Octavia (-7.1%) edges closer thanks to a smaller drop. The Kia Sportage (+27%) and Hyundai Tucson (+62.3%) deliver tremendous results below with the Toyota C-HR (+5%) rounding out the Top 5. Excellent showing also by the Dacia Duster (+17.1%) back inside the Top 10 for the first time since last July. Meanwhile the MG HS (+6.1%) manages its first Top 10 finish of the year at #8. We have a new nameplate in the Top 10: the BMW X3 is up to #10, smashing its previous ranking record of #15 hit in April 2020.
