In August, Dacia registrations in France went up 21% against August last year, to almost 6,000 units, according to CCFA statistics. In the first eight months of this year, Dacia registrations fell by around 2% to 59,400 units, but the brand rebounded in May, seeing a 5% rise in May against May of last year. Also the number of Dacias registered in France doubling in July to over 9,100 units.

In Spain Dacia registrations went up by almost 85% in August this year against August last year, to almost 1,700 units. Almost 780 of these were Dacia Sandero and 580 Duster SUVs, with Lodgy ranking only third, with 300 units, according to data of the Spanish car manufacturers association.

The evolution of the brand on the German market is difficult to quantify, despite the fact that Germany is the second-largest market for Dacia because statistics for Dacia registrations are not separate from Renault registrations.
