personally surprised that Tesla beats Jeep, but I'm uploading it mostly because it says not to.

I was about to be all like Wtf where's Subaru but then I found their estimated units sold for 2024, womp womp lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Wait, did I read that right? Less than 1,000 units?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

nope, less than 1,000,000 units.

[–] odium 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I see 976,000 units sold 2024

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh man, I mean, that's not good but I was like "FUCK that's low."

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Dude every other freakin car out here is a subaru so it's funny to me that they don't sell like hotcakes elsewhere

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

A day doesn't go by that I don't see at least two or three gangs of Subarus driving down the road.

But, then again, I also see a few different Cybertrucks on the regular so my market is probably an odd one.

You wouldn’t upload a car… chart, would you?

I love how those ads did more to promot piracy among normies than most anything else.

I wasn’t aware of the fact that Suzuki outsells Mazda. How long has that been happening?

[–] odium 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

This is probably why. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1090709/india-car-sales-volume-by-oem/

Same source as OP. 1.6 out of 2 million of Suzuki sales come from dominating the market in a single country.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

Whoa. That is definitely market dominance.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Suzuki is the best selling car brand in India

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

It’s a popular brand in Asia. Mitsubishi as well.

Mercedes bar is longer then BMW despite having smaller value. Did they try to visually balance the smaller width? How do you fuck up a bar graph?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

I think that's what the dotted line is for, the scale changed so it's easier to see the scale of each of the brands on the lower half, compared to each other.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Where is General Motors? I don't think this chart is super accurate.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Chevrolet is in the list. Looks like it's by brand, hence the reason that Audi is also broken out from Volkswagon.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Broken down to it's smaller brands for some reason... Like Audi is a VW...same as Porsche, Seat, Skoda, Lamborghini aaand whatever else they profuce

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Why wouldn't you break it down into brands like this?

[–] [email protected] -1 points 2 days ago

Well personally like seeing the full picture. Like this for example, which would obviously look different with worldwide sales included, but you can find appropriate individual brands and also how they perform as a group manufacturer. https://www.best-selling-cars.com/europe/2024-half-year-europe-best-selling-car-manufacturers-and-brands/

Why is Jeep listed as an American brand when they're owned by a company from the Netherlands?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

because we are talking about the brand not the company. the brand is certainly American.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Huh interesting. Apparently it's a french-italian-american company with it's hq in the netherlands for tax benefits I'm guessing. So.. I guess the flag sorta checks out?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Why surprised? Tesla Model Y is the best selling vehicle in the world.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

probably my own bias only because I live in a part of the world that a Tesla is nearly never seen and every other vehicle that drives by my hosue is a Jeep. Thanks for helping me recognize.

well, if this infographic is to be believed sales numbers less than 1.3 million, just like Caddilac, Buick, GMC, Dodge, Acura, Lexus...
