The Dacia Sandero was Europe’s best-selling car in the first half of 2024, pushing the Volkswagen Golf into second place and the Renault Clio into third, while the Tesla Model Y – last year’s global best-seller – languished in eighth.
The Romanian hatchback, which starts from as little as €11,500/€79 a month in Germany (from £13,795 in the UK), racked up 143,596 sales between 1 January and 30 June. That's a rise of 16% compared with the same period in 2023.
