Tesla Model Y became the best-selling car in Denmark in March 2023. Strong sales last month also made Tesla the top-selling brand in the country for the entire Q1, well outperforming its competitors.

Tesla continues to demonstrate strong success in the Danish automotive market. Thanks to strong sales, Tesla Model Y became the best-selling car in the country in March. In January, the car was the second most popular in Denmark, and in February its position strengthened, taking first place. In March, the situation did not change, except that Model Y achieved a new impressive result, even further increasing its lead over competitors.

With an impressive 3,203 units sold, Model Y was the #1 best-selling car in Denmark in March, regardless of powertrain, according to Mathias Føns/Twitter. It is noteworthy that this was the country's record for registered cars in any month ever. The previous record was held by Ford Kuga, which registered 1,688 vehicles in 2020.
