Wholesale/dispatch figures reflect vehicles shipped from manufacturer to dealer, reported fastest and broken out by brand. Retail figures reflect real registrations (FADA) and are published on a roughly one-month lag, so the two are shown separately above rather than blended into one number. Rankings above reflect the brands each cited source broke out individually, not necessarily every brand active that month.
