We have left the year 2023 behind. When we look at last year, we saw that electric cars have become increasingly popular since January. In fact, Xiaomi brand, known for its smartphones and smart home appliances, recently introduced its electric car. But there are also those who do not surrender their throne to anyone. German giant Volkswagen’s popular sports hatchback model Golf R is one of them. Here is “How much did Golf R sell?” Answers to the question and details…
While the sales of internal combustion cars decreased, Golf R managed to increase its sales! How much did Golf R sell?
We all have the perception that “electric cars are increasing rapidly” these days. This is actually not a wrong perception, as it is now quite common to see electric cars when we go out on the street. However, this perception has not been fully established in terms of full dissemination. There is more of a “growing baby” perception for electric cars. However, Golf R seems to have found a way to break these perceptions.
Here, it is best to start from the United States data. Because accessibility, variety of electric cars, etc. superior in matters. First, we need to look at Teslas, whose homeland is the USA. Tesla, which has a significant increase in sales figures, continues to dominate the market.
Things don’t calm down in Tesla! Critical error in 1.6 million vehicles
Tesla shared a new recall warning. It was stated that the problem experienced in 1.6 million vehicles affected the steering wheel and door locks.
Tesla, which also has a good market in daily car sales, is accompanied by Ford, Nissan and Toyota. Already looking at the “world’s best sellers” list, these brands are at the top. But when it comes to fun cars, things are changing.
Especially in the US market, Audi, a member of the VAG Group, doubled its R8 sales. In addition, while there was a 50 percent increase in Miata sales, even the popularity of the Nissan GT-R increased by 584 percent. There is also the BMW Z4, which increased its sales by 20 percent.
Volkswagen, the main hero of the news, has one of the best sales figures it has ever achieved in the American market. Sales of GTI, Grand Tourer Injection, one of the sports versions of Golf, increased by 7.6 percent to 7,451 units. Alongside the GTI, its brother Golf R also made one of its best debuts, reaching 3,238 units. These figures may seem “insufficient for a fight for the throne”. But keep in mind that these cars are for “hobby purposes”, not daily use, and that’s why they are sold to a limited audience. Of course, it was also acquired by Volkswagen, which never smiles in America.
In Turkey, the brand continued its rise this year, as every year. So what do you think? Don’t forget to express your opinions in the comments section…
