The year of 2024 ended satisfactorily in terms of . According to ELSTAT’s primary elements and the processing of the Motor Manufacturers Association , a total of 137,101 new IXs were sold , i.e. +1,9% compared to 2023. CORVERSE Although the market was heavily pressured, from the summer onwards, with falling months (July -1,4%, August -21.4%, September -15.3%, October -14.3%), November (+2%) and December (+5,7%), brought back the positive sign of sales, resulting in a positive closure of the year. Light drop by 1% to 10,761 units closed the year in new trucks (light and heavy), while there was a spectacular increase (+246,8%) in new buses with 874 units. With automobile companies having shown particular zeal in launching SUV bodies, 60% (!) of sales were SUVs of all categories (the small town 3.8% , supermini 30.7% , micromedia 20.3% , medium 4.5%), a trend that is followed in Europe, but at a lower rate. It seems that in Greece fashion is followed by more. CORVERSE What we see is the disappearance of sport bodies, which hold 0.1%, while the multiforms (MPV) and combi (station wagon), hold only 1% of the market. As far as motor systems are concerned, the fall in diesel cars continued, with more than 35.7% (-6.2% from the previous year, 33.7% in the EU), as well as diesel cars with 7.2% (-6%, 12.1% in the EU). This phenomenon has its explanation, as manufacturers have promoted mild hybrid technology in engines, resulting in hybrid drive systems now having 42.3% (+11.4%, 30.7% in the EU). We also have an increase in rechargeable 12.4% of the market (+1.1%.20.4% in the EU), which includes both pure electric and plug-in hybrid.
