Nissan (+7.7%) defies the negative market and stays at #4 while Toyota (-33.1%) freefalls at #5. The next five brands all post splendid grains. Jeep (+175%) and Skoda (+172.2%) are the most dynamic, followed by Dacia (+50%), Renault (+29.7%) and Mercedes (+7.3%).

The Kia Stonic (-34.2%) is once again the best-selling model with 5.4% share even though it properly craters. At #2, the Hyundai Tucson (-47.6%) is in even poorer form. The Nissan Qashqai (+59.5%) surges to #3, distancing the VW T-Roc (-24.7%) and Kia Sportage (-47.8%). The Dacia Duster (+60%) is estimated to rank #6 with 3% share ahead of the Toyota C-HR (+26.7%) and the new Kia EV3 lodging its first ever Top 10 finish in Cyprus. The Nissan Juke (-21.3%) and Jeep Avenger ensure the Top 10 is entirely composed of SUVs.
