In de eerste drie maanden (YTD) werden 113.805 nieuwe auto's verkocht, een daling van 5,9% ten opzichte van dezelfde periode vorig jaar.<\/p>\n<p>Het meest opvallend in maart: een perfecte verdeling tussen het professionele autosegment en de individuele kopers: 50\/50%. Daar zijn ongetwijfeld twee redenen voor: het Autosalon van Brussel, dat een groot succes was en veel individuele kopers aantrok, en ten tweede een eerder voorzichtige professionele markt gezien wat er in de wereld gebeurt.<\/p>\n<p>Met 43,1% van alle verkochte auto's blijven benzinevoertuigen de grootste groep, maar elektrische auto's (BEV's) halen hun achterstand in (35,9%), terwijl hybrides (PHEV's en HEV's) de op twee na grootste categorie vormen met 17,5% van het totaal. Dieselauto's zijn goed voor slechts 2,5%. De verhoudingen zijn bijna hetzelfde als we het eerste kwartaal van 2026 als geheel nemen.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-183861 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2026-04-02-om-08.26.37.png?resize=640%2C425&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2026-04-02-om-08.26.37.png?w=1728&amp;ssl=1 1728w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2026-04-02-om-08.26.37.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Andere categorie\u00ebn<\/h4>\n<p>De tweewielers maken een zeer goede start in 2026. In maart steeg de verkoop met 10,2%, terwijl er in het eerste kwartaal 6.990 gemotoriseerde tweewielers werden verkocht, 22,8% meer dan in het eerste kwartaal van vorig jaar.<\/p>\n<p>Er lijkt een hernieuwde belangstelling te zijn voor motorfietsen. Bijna allemaal (96,5%) worden ze nog steeds aangedreven door benzine, 2,7% van de scooters en motorfietsen zijn elektrisch, maar hun aantal neemt langzaam toe.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-183862 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2026-04-02-om-08.27.12.png?resize=640%2C430&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2026-04-02-om-08.27.12.png?w=1666&amp;ssl=1 1666w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm%C2%ADafbeelding-2026-04-02-om-08.27.12.png?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In maart werden er 6.197 lichte bedrijfsvoertuigen verkocht, 4% meer dan in dezelfde maand vorig jaar.

Vrachtwagens boven de 16 ton zagen de verkoop in maart met 4% stijgen, terwijl het eerste kwartaal een daling van 9% liet zien.<\/p>\n<h4>Per merk<\/h4>\n<p>Maart was een veel betere maand voor BMW dan de andere twee, met een verkoopstijging van 34,5% (YOY) nemen ze de eerste plaats weer over van Volkswagen, dat iets minder verkocht dan vorig jaar (-1,2%).<\/p>\n<p>Met een verkoopstijging van 6,2% bezet Audi de derde plaats en de strijd om de vierde plaats is (nipt) gewonnen door Peugeot (+10,5%) van Mercedes (-12,5%).<\/p>\n<p>Renault staat zesde, met een verkoopstijging van 7,7%, gevolgd door lagekostendochter Dacia, die een verkoopdaling van 8,6% zag. Skoda (achtste) blijft goed verkopen (+13,5%) en haalt daarmee Toyota (negende) in, dat 9,9% minder verkocht. De tiende plaats is een verrassing: Tesla is weer terug, met een verkoopstijging van 88,5%.<\/p>\n<p>Andere serieuze winnaars waren natuurlijk de Chinezen: MG (18e, +99,5%), BYD (19e, +85,3%), Leapmotor (28e, +483,7%), Xpeng (31e, +83,2%), Omoda (33e, +385%) en Jaecoo (35e, +608%). Voor de laatste drie merken hebben we het natuurlijk nog steeds over lage absolute verkoopcijfers.<\/p>\n<p>Ford (11e, +14.3%), Opel (13e, +23.1%), Fiat (21e, +43.7%), Mazda (22e, +30.7%), Jeep (24e, +35.8%) en Honda (28e, +40.3%) deden het ook goed, net als het Koreaanse KG Mobility (37e, +197.5%), maar we hebben het hier over heel kleine aantallen.<\/p>\n<p>Er waren niet veel grote verliezers in maart, maar het vermelden waard zijn Nissan (20e, -27,8%), Land Rover (27e, -31,3%), Porsche (29e, -20,4%), Seat (34e, -38%) en Lexus (40e, -41,9%).<\/p>\n<h4>Gecumuleerd<\/h4>\n<p>Als we naar het eerste kwartaal van 2026 kijken, zien we dat BMW dankzij het sterke resultaat in maart Volkswagen weer voorbij is gestreefd naar de eerste plaats, met een marktaandeel van 11,1%, tegenover 9,3% voor Volkswagen. Op de derde plaats staat Mercedes (7,2%), gevolgd door de twee Fransen, Peugeot (4e, 6,4%) en Renault (5e, 6,3%).<\/p>\n<p>Audi staat zesde (6,1% marktaandeel), gevolgd door Dacia (5,3%). De strijd tussen Skoda (8e, 4.7%) en Toyota (9e, 4.5%) is ook hier gewonnen door de Tsjech; tiende is Kia (3.6%).<\/p>\n<p>Opel (11e, 3,5%) is in een spannende strijd verwikkeld met Tesla (12e, ook 3,5%), met slechts 15 auto's verschil. Volvo is naar de 13e plaats gezakt (3,2%). MG blijft het eerste Chinese merk op plaats 18 (1,6% marktaandeel) en BYD staat nu 20e, met 1,4% marktaandeel.<\/p>\n<p>Opvallende verliezers in Q1 waren Volvo (-20.3%), Hyundai (-27.2%), Nissan (-37.7%), Porsche (-27.7%), Seat (-50.4%), Polestar (-22%), Land Rover (-53.4%), Alfa Romeo (-24.9%) en Lexus (-28.1%).<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to data from the federal public service Mobility and the sector federation Febiac, 43,733 new cars were registered in Belgium and Luxembourg, an increase of 8.8% compared to last year.
