As in the past, the German car market is dominated by German brands. Here you are really patriotic, you buy, which for the most part also comes from German car factories. And that the Volkswagen Group is the absolute number one among the customers, nobody will be surprised.

Nothing new at the top

Germany's most popular cars in the year 2017 and 2018It should be quite clear which model is bought the most in Germany. As has been the case almost continuously for decades Golf from Volkswagen. No miracle happened in 2017 or in the first quarter of 2018, the industry leader simply cannot be pushed out of the top spot. The group brothers follow at a distance on the popularity scale Passat and the Tiguanwhich is also best selling SUV. Only in fourth place is a vehicle from Stuttgart to find. The C-Class von Mercedes is cemented in this position. The days when compact vehicles from Ford and Opel were to be found in these regions are long gone. And also in fifth place in the sales figures from 2017 and early 2018, another VW car can show off. The Polo intercepts customers for whom a Golf has already grown too big.

Volkswagen also dominates the remaining places

This premium middle class is followed by a vehicle belonging to the more economical Group subsidiary Skoda, The economic Oktavia has also been a bestseller in the third model generation and the best-selling vehicle of the Czechs in Germany. Up to this place, the car bestsellers on the German market remained practically the same in 3 and early 2017. With the Golf's strongest competitor for many years, the Opel Astra, a vehicle ranked eighth in 2018, which unfortunately is only a shadow of itself this year. It is difficult to say whether the takeover of the GM subsidiary by the French PSA group will play a role, but this year the compact is not among the top ten in the top rankings.

Replaced was the Astra by the 1er BMW, which is currently the best-selling car Bayern in Germany. Also the Focus von Ford was able to work its way up to the top group again this year, he is now replacing the Touran from Volkswagen to tenth place. The Opel Corsa was able to secure this in 2017. Even this popular small car cannot really compete in the top group this year.

Competition is growing

The competition for attractive and good cars is growing. Nevertheless, Volkswagen can stay in the surf like a rock and continue to fill all top positions. You don't have to be a clairvoyant to be able to say that the Golf will remain the favorite of German car buyers. Especially when the trendy new model generation comes onto the market. There is also a new model in the pipeline for the Focus, which means that even stronger sales figures can be expected. It looks different with the Astra. Although the K generation is still relatively young, its star seems to be falling again!
