The car industry expands into new segments frequently, with new bodystyles popping up all over the place.
What’s the best-selling in each one, though? We’ve got the latest data from market analyst JATO Dynamics to bring you the best-selling cars in Europe (EU countries), sorted by bodystyle.
The best-selling cars in Europe: by segment
City car: Fiat 500 - 167,708 sales

Supermini: Renault Clio - 284,241 sales
The Renault Clio is one of the best-selling cars in Europe, the top-selling car in France, Portugal and Slovenia and the top-selling supermini overall. It tops the Volkswagen Polo in second and the​ Ford Fiesta in third.

Looking on CarSalesBase, the Tesla Model S outsold the S-Class, Panamera and 7-series (by a large margin in the latter two cases). Not a luxury car as far as Autocar / JATO are concerned?
