We have just closed 2022 and the automotive brands have also wanted to take stock of this very complicated year for the sector , which has been marked by the microchip crisis , the rise in raw materials prices and a collapse in demand derived from the lack of the shortage of cars in dealerships. Without a doubt, the past has been the year of Asian brands. Toyota has become the best-selling brand in Spain, with 73,505 units on the market , according to data provided by Anfac, Faconauto and Ganvam. It is the first time that an Asian brand has added the highest number of registrations in a year in our country. But it was not the only one, 2 other Japanese brands complete the ranking . Kia is the firm that is in second place in the classification, with 63,345 cars sold.
Hyundai closes the podium with 59,503 registrations. Behind are Volkswagen and Peugeot , with 58,874 and 54,737 units, respectively. This figure is quite positive considering the context in which the sector has had to navigate, which has seen sales fall by 5.4% due to tensions in the supply chain. In fact, this has been Toyota's strong point, as Cinco Días explains . The Japanese chain WhatsApp Number List is the one that has best known how to manage the supply crisis compared to its rivals. Furthermore, another key has been the sale of hybrids . In fact, 80% of its deliveries in Spain are hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles . In this way, Toyota has managed to dethrone Seat after 4 years of being among the top positions. This year, however, it will have to settle for sixth position , due to its 49,200 units delivered.
Regarding the best-selling cars, it has also been the Asian ones that have taken the crown. Specifically, it has been Hyundai with its Tucson model that leads the classification. The Japanese brand has marketed up to 21,985 units in our country throughout 2022 , 3.4% more than the previous year. As has happened with the best-selling brand, it is also the first time that an Asian car becomes one of the best-sellers . In addition, it has broken a double record, because it is also the first time that the best-selling car in our country is a model from the C-SUV segment. This car has a price close to 37,000 euros, which makes it an expensive vehicle compared to other models that have dominated in previous years. Especially considering that there are much cheaper options on the market.
