What was applied for first registration more often? A solid victory in this ranking goes to Volkswagen, with a solid share of 21%. Audi and Nissan also entered the top three most popular imported brands. Renault took fourth place, and Tesla, which was in eighth place at the end of the year, rose to fifth. Which, after all, we predicted not so long ago.
Here are the Top 10 manufacturers whose "freshly driven" cars were in the greatest demand at the beginning of this year:
Among individual models, the Volkswagen Golf is in first place, helped by the electric version of the e-Golf. The Skoda Octavia is in second place, the Volkswagen Tiguan is in third place, which is seriously competing with the Audi Q5 . It is also noticeable how many electric cars are imported — the Nissan Leaf is in fifth place, the Tesla Model Y is in sixth place, and the Tesla Model 3 is in eighth place. The closer the planned cancellation of customs clearance benefits is, the more actively they are being bought, even though the prices for electric cars have already increased somewhat.
The average age of passenger cars that entered the Ukrainian fleet during the first quarter of 2025 was 9.5 years, which is slightly less than in the annual total, where this number was 10 years.
As for premium and rare models, last year the Ukrainian car fleet was replenished with the following passenger cars of these categories: 196 Porsche, 143 Zeekr, 68 Polestar, 45 Rivian, 15 Maserati, 5 Lucid, 4 BMW Alpina, 4 Rolls-Royce, 4 Avatr, 2 Lamborghini, 1 Bentley, 1 Hongqi and 1 Aston Martin.
