Devarshi, in february 2006 the top 3 hatchbacks by sales were :
Fiat Punto 37,977 units (both old and new Grande Punto)
Renault Clio 36,016 units
Ford Fiesta 31,470 units
A thread on these sales figures already exsits
here. (Fiat Punto Sales : No. 1 in Europe) Reuters reports that March 2006 sales were led by Fiat and VW. Grande Punto and the new Passat made solid gains for their car makers. Fiat UP 28.3%, VW UP 9.6%, Renault DOWN 4.8%, Mercedes UP 14.4%, Kia UP 0.5%, Suzuki UP 19%, Toyota UP 4.9%, Lexus UP 85%! to 5135 units. Sorry no figures on units sold for March. Did a bit of googling but couldn't find specific info on Hyundai's sales figures for Europe.
The Europeans are fierecely nationalistic and prefer to buy cars made by their own countrymen. Just like the Koreans!
By the way, so much of heat for a thread started in 2004!
