Sales of Mercedes, BMW and Audi brand vehicles accounted for 72.5% of all premium car sales.
Mercedes sales increased 25% to 4,018, Mercedes-Benz Hungária said. Mercedesʼ SUV sales were up 46%.
BMW sales increased 16.3% to 3,140. Audiʼs premium-category sales decreased by 19% to 2,229.
Sándor Mátrabérci, brand director at importer Porsche Hungaria, attributed the latter drop to the application of the worldwide harmonized light vehicles test procedure (WLTP) emissions test to all new car registrations from September: the process of homologation has been slow.
