What are the most popular passenger cars in the domestic market? Top 10 brands and models of July 2025
In the domestic market, during July 2025, the service centers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs registered 75 thousand contracts for the purchase and sale of used cars. This is 4.4% more than in June 2025, but 28.3% less than the number of contracts concluded in July 2024.
The domestic market volumes in the diagram are shown in the upper (blue) part of the columns, and in the lower (orange) part are the volumes of used car imports, which we will soon consider in a separate publication.
In July, Volkswagen retained its leadership in the domestic resale market by a significant margin, outpacing its closest competitor by almost two times. This demonstrates the enduring trust in the brand, which is valued for its reliability, simplicity, and maintainability.
Next in the top ten are Renault, BMW, VAZ and Skoda, which are almost equal in terms of volume, but are focused on different target groups: from fans of dynamics and image to pragmatic drivers. The list is completed by Audi, Toyota, Ford, Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai — consistently popular brands that cover the needs of different segments: from budget to premium, from gasoline to hybrids.
Among the models with the most mileage, the Volkswagen Passat was again the most popular in July — it was noticeably ahead of the rest of the rating participants. In second place is the Skoda Octavia, which maintains a strong position due to its affordability, roominess and versatility. In third place is the Volkswagen Golf, which is especially popular in cities and is helped by its electric version, the e-Golf, to occupy high places in the rating.
An interesting situation this time was with Daewoo Lanos and Renault Megane - the number of PPCs (purchase and sale agreements) for them turned out to be the same. In addition to the mentioned models, the top ten traditionally included the BMW 5- and 3-series, Ford Focus, Audi A6 and Opel Astra.
The average age of cars on the secondary market did not change last month and continues to be 15.7 years.

As always, we will finish by counting the premium segment cars. So, last month, the following number of new owners for not-quite-new cars of this group were found on the domestic market: 1 Maybach, 1 Lamborghini, 1 Ferrari, 2 Aston Martin, 3 Rolls-Royce, 9 Maserati and 10 Bentley.
The most respectable cars were a luxurious black Opel Admiral and a compact red Steyr 50, both cars from 1939.
