This preference is reflected in the list of the 10 best-selling cars in Europe in March, where five are utility vehicles, two are compact SUVs, two are urban SUVs, and one is a compact.
Success of the Toyota Yaris
The Toyota Yaris has managed to position itself in the Top 10 of the best-selling cars in Europe in the third month of 2024. Although it occupied tenth position with just over 19,000 sales, this achievement is significant for the Japanese brand, as it demonstrates the growing acceptance of its hybrid utility vehicle in the European market.
Although the Yaris is below the Tesla in terms of sales, its consolidation in the European market is a clear indication of the positive impact that Toyota’s hybrid utilities are having on the continent.
