If you are the car sales on the great hope, then the Netherlands are not really far in terms of sales numbers. Yet we in Europe still the seventh car market, and especially the following brands is an important market.

In the Netherlands, In 2014 387.835 new cars sold in the EU (+ EFTA countries) 13.006.451 pieces. With our small country we were so still good for 3% of the sales (in Belgium, there is more, but that aside).

Of course, the relationships between the brands is not everywhere exactly the same, and to find out what we Dutch people well buy more than other Europeans destilleerden we these figures. We have a index created, with a 100 being the European average. Everything above is logically more popular in the Netherlands than in the rest of Europe. An index of 200 means that a brand twice as much was sold as elsewhere, and so on, enzodoor.

Large luminary is Mitsubishi, which is 11,8% of its European sales in the Netherlands realized (the Outlanders were good for 69% of the total, the rest were in a particularly advantageous Space Stars). Also for Volvo, the Netherlands is of vital importance.

Tesla (1.465), Porsche (1.025), and Subaru (643) is no European data available, therefore these brands are not included.
