Edition No. Q1-2026 Quarterly Auto Market Intelligence Supplement. Scope: West European Market Intelligence Status Report – All Fuels
The Western European new passenger car market began the year with 3.16 million new units registered (+4.2% y/y) across the 18 market region, accounting for 90% of the wider pan-European market. That was the most positive start to the year since pre-Covid 2019, when 3.79 million units were registered. However, 2026 still witnessed a 16.7% contraction over that natural pre-pandemic baseline, or just over 630,000 fewer units, highlighting the continued delay in returning to "normal levels" in a volatile, geopolitically and economically strained market environment.
An automotive market intelligence study aimed at automotive industry stakeholders, strategic planners, policymakers, and all those with a holistic vested interest in the industry and its direction.
