Sales in USA by segment and body in 2021
- Sales of passenger cars in the United States in 2021 (which here include SUVs and MPVs while the American classification integrates these vehicles into utilities) show that the D-segment and the C-segment are now very close to each other. other in terms of market share and together accounted for more than 80% of the US market last year.
- The D-segment remained relatively stable between 2007 and 2021, but fell from 37% to 46% of the market between 2005 and 2010, taking over a lot of sales from the E-segment. The E-segment saw its market share fall by 30% in 2005 to 17.5% in 2009 and stabilized at 15% of the market in the following years, until today. The C segment has steadily increased between 2005 and 2021, rising from 30% to 40%. Finally, the B segment suddenly dropped in 2020 and 2021 and this segment seems destined to disappear from the US market, like the very marginal A segment on this market.
- In terms of bodywork, sedans which had relatively resisted the growth of SUVs in the early 2000s, suddenly stalled from 2015, falling from 55% of the market to less than 30% in 2021.
- The SUVs which had reached a level of 40% of the US market between 2011 and 2014 saw their sales take off abruptly (by the arrival of a new offer) from 2015, going from 40% of the market to nearly 70% in 2021.
- There remain monospaces (MPVs), whose sales have been declining steadily since the early 2000s, falling from 10% of the market in 2005 to less than 3% in 2021. These vehicles have been gradually supplanted by SUVs.

Sales in China by segment and body in 2021

Sales in China by segment and body in 2021
- Sales of passenger cars in China show that the C and D segments tend to approach each other in terms of volume, the D segment rising in a few years from 20% of the market to 37% while the C segment rose from 55% to 44% , a phenomenon made possible by the constant increase in purchasing power in China over the past ten years. The minivan segment (which is a separate category in the Chinese ranking) has shrunk a lot, from 20% in 2011 to 15% in 2016 and 7.5% in 2021. This category is the remnant of the small rustic MPV market and inexpensive which had invaded the Chinese market at the end of the 90s and the beginning of the 2000s and which are undoubtedly victims of the increase in purchasing power in China.
- The entry-level A and B segments have also lost significant market share, dropping from 15% in 2011 to 8% in 2016 and 7% in 2021, but last year A-segment sales overtook for the first time those of the B segment (4% against 3%) thanks to the electrification of the A segment and the success of the Wuling Hongguang Mini EV which alone represents 2% of the Chinese market. The E segment remains relatively small, with 4.5% of the Chinese market in 2021, but this segment did not exceed 2% in 2016 and 3% in 2011. Another manifestation of the increase in purchasing power in China.
- By body type, SUVs (47% of the market) and sedans (45% of the market) are neck and neck in 2021, whereas in 2011 sedans represented 70% of the market and SUVs only 10%. As for monospaces and minivans, they together represent 8% of the market against 20% in 2011.

The future Lancia Ypsilon will be produced in Zaragoza

The future Lancia Ypsilon will be produced in Zaragoza
- The Stellantis group has announced that the next generation of the Lancia Ypsilon (B-segment sedan), scheduled for 2024 and which will take over the platform of the current Peugeot 208 and Opel Corsa, will be produced at the Spanish site in Zaragoza, alongside the Opel Corsa , Opel e-Corsa and Peugeot e-208. The game of musical chairs which consisted in transferring the Citroën C3 Aircross and Opel Crossland from Zaragoza to Trnava (Slovakia), while the Peugeot 208 would be transferred from Trnava to Zaragoza will therefore be accompanied by the transfer of the Lancia Ypsilon from Tichy (Poland ) to Zaragoza.
- The Lancia comes a long way because the former management of the Fiat-Chrysler group (in the person of Sergio Marchionne) had planned not to replace the Ypsilon and to abandon the brand in the early 2020s. The merger of PSA with FCA in 2021 who created the Stellantis group changed the strategy concerning the Lancia brand and the management of the new group had announced that not only the Lancia Ypsilon would have descendants but that other new models would appear under this brand in 2026 and 2028 ( including a C-segment sedan called Delta and a D-segment electric SUV).
- In addition, Lancia will no longer be confined to the Italian market but will be deployed throughout the European continent.
- The future Lancia Ypsilon will therefore adopt the CMP platform (it is not yet entitled to the STLA Small platform) and will be equipped with the 1.2 liter petrol engine which will also be available in mild-hybrid like the current Fiat 500 and Panda. A 100% electric version will complete the range, like the Peugeot 208 and Opel Corsa.

Repositioning of models at Seat and Cupra

Repositioning of models at Seat and Cupra
- The Volkswagen group has announced that the Cupra brand will be 100% electric in 2030. Today, the Spanish brand – a sporty offshoot of the Seat brand – offers the 100% electric Born (derived from the Volkswagen ID3), the Formentor SUV as well as sports versions of the Seat Leon and Ateca. The next announced launches will be: In 2024, the Cupra Ateca II SUV with hybrid engines (HEV and PHEV) will appear, which will be manufactured at Audi's Gyor site in Hungary, as well as the 100% electric Cupra Tavascan SUV, which will be derived from the Volkswagen ID5. In 2025, the Cupra Urban Rebel, a sporty version of the Volkswagen ID1/ID2, will appear, as well as the Cupra Tarraco II, also equipped with hybrid engines (HEV and PHEV).
- For Seat, the Volkswagen group does not plan to switch the brand to all-electric before 2035, which means that Seat is now considered to be the entry level of the group and that its models with internal combustion engines or hybrids (HEV and PHEV) will be intended initially for customers who do not have the budget to switch to electric.
- In this context, the future Seat Ibiza and Arona are expected for 2025, the Leon being restyled in 2024. But the big change is that the Ateca and Tarraco will be repositioned at Cupra, and it does not seem that the Seat Mii has finally a descendant, since it is by Cupra that the small 100% electric sedan derived from the Volkswagen ID1 / ID2 (as for the Born derived from the ID3) will be launched. The Cupra brand will therefore eventually supplant the Seat brand with six different models against three. It is a repositioning that pulls up the prices of the models, the Cupra being more expensive than the Seat.
