In 2020, Volkswagen was the best-selling passenger car brand in the Netherlands. Volkswagen Group sold approximately 45,000 VW-badged passenger cars on the Dutch market, down roughly 5.7 percent year-on-year. Second-ranked Kia was the only brand to increase sales in 2020: Kia sales rose by around six percent to reach some 25,000 units.
Electric car market shows dynamism
Meanwhile, Tesla's sales declined by more than 70 percent between 2019 and 2020. The electric vehicle maker had previously reached the third position in the ranking, most likely as a result of an added tax advantage for business lease. That said, electric cars continued to gain market share in the Netherlands: one in four cars sold was an electric or plug-in hybrid model in 2020. Among Volkswagen's best-selling vehicles were the fully-electric models ID.3 and ID.4. The ID.3 was the fourth best-selling all-electric car in the Netherlands in 2020; Tesla's Model 3 topped the ranking that year.
