Tesla Model Y became the best-selling car in Singapore in September 2022. It was the first month of sales of the compact SUV, which gave a great boost to further success in the country’s market.
Tesla Model Y recorded another win in September, becoming the best-selling vehicle of any type in Singapore, results posted by @darenyoong/Twitter showed. The manufacturer registered 219 cars, taking first place in the ranking. Unfortunately, the data published by the Singapore Land Transport Authority Statistics do not divide by model, but only by segment. Since Tesla only sells two car models in Singapore, Model 3 and Model Y, it is not hard to figure out how many units of each were sold.
In the case of other manufacturers, it is impossible to determine how many of each model were sold. Despite this, the number of Tesla Model Y sold still exceeds even the cumulative sales of cars by individual manufacturers by segment. So, the second result, the most frequently registered cars belong to Honda. The data indicate that 172 units in the SUV segment were registered. Obviously, this number includes several different models. The third result belongs to Mercedes-Benz, which registered 171 units in the SUV segment.
