The number of passenger car registrations in Poland has been steadily increasing since 1990. In 2021, nearly 25.6 million passenger cars were registered in countrywide which is an increase of nearly 20 million compared to 1990.
Sale of passenger cars in Poland
In 2022, the most popular type of cars in Poland were medium-size SUVs and crossovers. Interest in medium-sized vehicle (C segment) has also been growing. As for the most popular brands among new passenger cars in 2022, Toyota Corolla and Toyota Yaris were the leaders. Skoda recorded five models in the ranking most popular cars in Poland in 2022 in terms of the number of registrations. Yet, despite the popularity, the brand could not account for the sales growth - sales of volume dropped compared to the previous year. The most significant increase in sales was marked by Mercedes-Benz, and the largest decline by Suzuki over 2022.
The electric car market in Poland
Electric cars are becoming increasingly popular among the Polish society. In 2022, every fourth person expressed willingness to buy an electric vehicle, which means an increase of more than 10 percent compared to the previous year. It is expected that by 2025 there will be more than one million such cars on Polish roads. The largest share of electric vehicles in Poland in 2022 were battery cars (BEV), mainly due to the growing popularity of carsharing.
