The Tesla Model Y took first place in sales in Europe in March 2026, sharply increasing its figures. After 42nd place in January and 14th in February, the model moved into the lead with 33,723 registrations. Growth amounted to 117% compared with March last year. This is the model's first victory since December 2025.
Second place went to the Nissan Qashqai with 27,832 sales, and third to the Renault Clio with 24,294. The top five also included the Dacia Sandero and Volkswagen Golf.
The growth of the Model Y is linked to updates, including a more affordable version and a variant with three rows of seats. Earlier, the car had been losing ground despite a facelift at the beginning of 2025.
The Tesla Model 3 also showed success, rising to 11th place with 18,880 sales, which is 55% higher than last year's level.
However, by the end of the quarter, the Clio became the leader with 55,763 sales. The Model Y took second place with 51,468. The top 5 also included the Golf, Qashqai, and Volkswagen T-Roc.
The market continues to grow thanks to new models. Strong growth was shown by the Skoda Elroq, Citroen C3 Aircross, and Fiat Grande Panda.
