The best-selling crossovers and SUVs in the 1H of 2023 became known

The share of the SUV segment in the Russian market is growing and for the last six months has already exceeded 65%. So, in January - June 2023, 261.8 thousand new such cars were sold in our country (+ 36% in compare with the same period last year). The experts of the agency "AUTOSTAT", based on the data of JSC "PPK" *, decided to see which models made the greatest contribution there, and also made the TOP-10 of the most popular crossovers and SUVs. This rating is led by the domestic LADA Niva Travel SUV, sold in 6 months in the amount of 20.4 thousand vehicles (+136%). It should be noted that the share of the model in the volume of sales of the LADA brand was 15.2%. The Chinese crossover Haval Jolion is on the second place of the ranking (19.3 thousand vehicles; an increase of 3.4 times). The Geely Coolray crossover (17.3 thousand vehicles; 5.2 times) also entered the top three among SUV models.

Next is the Russian LADA Niva Legend SUV (15.2 thousand vehicles; 2.9 times). At the same time, the next three positions were taken by market newcomers - OMODA C5 (13.4 thousand vehicles), Chery Tiggo 7 PRO Max (13.1 thousand vehicles) and Chery Tiggo 4 PRO (11.6 thousand vehicles), sales of which for the last six months have exceeded 10,000 vehicles. Chery Tiggo 7 PRO (7.4 thousand vehicles; +41%) and Geely Atlas Pro (6.9 thousand vehicles; +203%) continue our rating, and Haval F7x (6.9 thousand vehicles; +173%) is also in the top.

As you can see, the TOP-10 consists of two Russian and eight Chinese models. We should also note that most of the presented models (7 out of 10) have a share of less than 50% in the sales of their brands. And the largest share in the total sales of the brand is demonstrated by the OMODA С5 crossover - 97.2%. The share of Haval Jolion (50%) and Geely Coolray (52.9%) in the total brand sales is also quite high.
