A total of 40 brands registered cars, of which only two managed to break the 1,000-unit barrier.

Of these, 24 broke the psychological 100-unit barrier while there was interest in the newly launched brands, the expensive ones and Tesla which continues to gain market share.

Toyota came out on top with 1,801, followed by Citroen with 1,027 sales.
