According to Ukravtoprom, the new passenger car market in 2025 grew by 17% compared to 2024, reaching 81,300 units.
Sales of new passenger cars in Ukraine from January through June of this year declined by 1.9% compared to the same period in 2025, to 33,000 units, according to AUTO-Consulting.
Specifically, in June, this market contracted by 7.7% compared to June 2025 (when 6,217 thousand cars were sold).
“So far, the market has entered a downward trend, but AUTO-Consulting does not view this as a catastrophe. It’s worth noting that last year, starting in the summer, there was a boom in electric vehicle sales, as tax incentives were set to expire by the end of 2025, leading to heightened demand; now that such demand has subsided, we’re seeing a slight decline,” the group’s website states.
As noted in the statement, Toyota continues to lead the market, though its sales have declined slightly; Renault came in second, gaining momentum and expanding its model lineup, and surpassed Skoda. In June, Hyundai, Nissan, Mercedes-Benz, and Peugeot also strengthened their positions.
The Renault Duster leads the model rankings, while the Toyota RAV4—awaiting deliveries of the new generation—did not make it into the top three. Instead, the Hyundai Tucson took second place, and the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado took third.
As reported, according to AUTO-Consulting, Ukrainians purchased 83,443 new passenger cars in 2025, which is 17% more than the previous year, with 33,770 cars sold in the first half of the year.
Ukrainians purchased approximately 6,200 new passenger cars in April 2026, which is 3% more than in April 2025 and 5% more than in March of this year, according to a report by Ukravtoprom on its Telegram channel.
Toyota remains the most popular brand with 750 units sold, which is 7% more than in April 2025 but 17.4% less than sales in March 2025.
Renault took second place with a 19% increase in sales compared to April of last year and a 25.6% increase compared to March of this year, reaching 653 units.
Skoda took third place with an 18% drop in sales compared to April 2025 and a slight decline compared to March 2026, totaling 450 units.
The Chinese brand BYD (one of the sales leaders in the final months of 2025, which had dropped out of the top ten by early 2026) climbed to fourth place from tenth in March of this year—448 units (+53% compared to April of last year).
Next were BMW – 442 units (+45%), Volkswagen – 412 units (-23%), Hyundai – 337 units (+17%), Mazda – 244 units (+230%), Nissan – 216 units (-3%), and Suzuki – 188 units (-30%).
The best-selling model of the month was the Renault Duster compact crossover.
According to Ukravtoprom, over 21,500 new passenger cars were sold in the country from January to April, which is 7% more than last year.
Meanwhile, the information and analytical group AUTO-Consulting reports that the new passenger car market in April totaled 6,170 vehicles, which is 3.8% more than in March and 0.8% more than in April of last year.
“Thus, the Ukrainian auto market continues to move in positive territory and demonstrate positive trends. There is also active competition,” the group’s website states.
According to experts, the top three were also led by Toyota (799 units), Renault (604 units), and Skoda (450 units), followed by BMW (445 units) and BYD (433 units).
“BYD continues to surprise this season. In April, it was already No. 5 on the Ukrainian market again (growth of +123%), following a sharp drop in electric car sales. Nevertheless, BYD is recovering its sales volumes and is even establishing a dealer network across Ukraine,” the post states.
According to information on the website of “BB Cars” (Kyiv region), which was registered in November 2022 in the Bucha district, in March 2026, it announced the signing of an exclusive strategic cooperation agreement with the Chinese company Beijing North Huapeng Materials Sales Co. regarding the development of BYD vehicle distribution in Ukraine.
AUTO-Consulting also notes that another trend in April was a significant increase in Citroën sales (11th place compared to 18th in March and a 50% increase)
At the same time, among the negative results, they note that Mercedes-Benz lost significant ground in April (-22.5% compared to March 2026, down to 117 units).
“But there are objective reasons for this, as one of the Mercedes-Benz dealerships in Kyiv was hit by rocket fire in April, resulting in many cars being burned. Therefore, unfortunately, Mercedes-Benz found itself in a difficult situation,” the post notes.
As reported, according to AUTO-Consulting, Ukrainians purchased 83,443 new passenger cars in 2025, which is 17% more than the previous year, and according to “Ukravtoprom,” the market also grew by 17%—to 81,300 units.
The Federation of Automobile Employers of Ukraine (FAU), citing data from Auto-Consulting, has published statistics on sales of new passenger cars.
According to the data, 33.773 thousand passenger cars were sold in Ukraine in January-June.
The first six places in the market remained unchanged compared to May: Toyota is in the lead with sales of 887 cars (4% more than in June 2024, but 20% less than in May 2025), Volkswagen is in second place, with sales more than doubling in June compared to June 2024 – up to 557 units, Renault is third with 547 cars (+32%).
The fourth place is taken by Skoda, which in June increased sales by 69% compared to June last year – 454 units, BYD has already steadily gained a foothold in fifth place thanks to the import of electric cars (453 units), and Huyndai was sixth (284 cars and an increase of 73% compared to June last year).
Zeekr has also increased its influence – now these Chinese electric cars are in seventh place in the Ukrainian market and are ahead of all premium brands in terms of sales.
“It was the import of electric vehicles from China that ensured Honda’s eighth place in June, and contributed to the popularity of many other cars,” according to Auto-Consulting.
The demand for German premium cars remains strong. BMW is the leader here (257 cars – 53% less than in June 2014), followed by Audi with 233 cars (+47%). Both German brands took 9th and 10th place in the Ukrainian market in June.
The FAU also cites Auto-Consulting statistics on sales of light commercial vehicles (LCVs), according to which in June they decreased by 9% compared to June 2024, amounting to 637 units, and for the first half of the year – by 4.6% compared to the same period last year, to 3,856 thousand units.
Thus, in the overall market of passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, the share of LCVs in June amounted to 9.3% (12.2% last year), and for the first half of the year – 10.2% (10.6%).
In this segment, Citroen had the best result in June, with sales up 62% by May 2025, but down 40% by June 2024, to 146 units. Renault was second with sales of 80 vehicles (57% less than in June 2024), and Peugeot took third place with 70 vehicles compared to 27 last year.
At the same time, in the first half of the year, Renault is the leader with a market share of 16.55% and sales of 638 cars (down 58% year-on-year), followed by Citroen – 522 units (-15%) and Ford – 458 units (+87%).
