| The Peugeot 208 was the best selling car |
Record-high sales in 2015 - the highest sales of passenger cars ever and this is the first time that there have been sold more than 200,000 cars, 207,717 and 10% more than the year before. For the sixth consecutive year with sales higher than the year before, and the last five years, car sales have been higher than ever before.
With no 2014 to compare with I decided to code the list by brand association. Pale blue Europe, dark blue the USA, salmon Asia and Germany yellow. As light commercial vehicles are included, some models here are vans.
Peugeot are going well in Denmark with three of the top five slots. Small models are the main selling cars here, no doubt encouraged by government policy. Tesla got to 28th with its S model. There is a fairly even mix of models, with Asian ones doing better here than in many European nations.
