Which model holds the record for the number of registrations? Here is the hierarchy of the best-selling cars in history.

[Mis à jour le 09/08/2021 à 16h35] The Toyota Corolla is the queen of the automotive industry across the world. Not only does she hold the best-selling car status in history, but it continues to strengthen it by winning the market leader position each year for more than a decade. Although disrupted by the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 vintage was no exception. During the last fiscal year, the Corolla had totaled 1.13 million registrations (1,134,262 to be exact), however representing a decline of -8.8% compared to its total of the previous year (1,236,380 units ). Now, it has visibly regained its pre-health crisis rate with 625,000 sales in the first half of 2021, according to the latest figures relayed by the site focus2move.com, foreshadowing a total at the end of this year to be over 1.2 million.

Sold in nearly 150 countries, the Corolla is at the head of the world hierarchy, ahead of another model from the Aichi firm. It’s about Toyota RAV4, boosted by the start of the career of its fifth generation. In this first year of health crisis, the iconic Japanese SUV is also one of the few models to record a positive result. Compared to its 2019 result (931,852 units), the RAV4 shows an increase of + 1.9% with a total of 971,516 registrations in 2020.

50 million Toyota Corollas

This year, the Toyota Corolla is about to blow its 55e candle by approaching the 50 million units sold mark, a symbolic threshold that it will in principle cross during the second half of 2021. Born in 1966, the Japanese compact has built its success on its numerous bodies and its global reach. Currently, the US and Chinese markets together represent half of its sales. At the end of 2020, she claims the trifle of 49.5 million registrations for a total of twelve generations. As a reminder, the latest was launched in 2019 with the Corolla designation in France, instead of the Auris.

Within this historic ranking, the Toyota Corolla is followed by the venerable Ford F-Series, pick-up available in many versions, which combines 41 millions registrations since 1948. The podium is completed by another more recent world-class model, the Volkswagen Golf. Marketed since 1974 and now credited with an eighth opus, the Wolfsburg compact was sold at 37 millions of copies.

The Renault Clio, French premiere

It’s no secret that getting a vehicle to the top spots in global sales of all time, it must both maintain a high level of popularity over the decades, multiply its variations, but also keep the same denomination. This is why no French car will ever be able to claim a place on this podium. The best ranked among them is the Renault Clio, sold since 1991 to more than 15 million copies. She is holding the 19e place of the hierarchy while the Citroen 2CV (9 millions), Peugeot 206 (8.4 million) and Renault 4 (8.2 million) complete this ranking of the 34 best-selling models since the birth of the automobile.
