Best-selling car models vary widely across different regions of the world. In this toot, I will compare the sizes of the following areas: ASEAN, Latin America, Europe, North America, and the world overall.

ASEAN is a regional grouping of 10 countries in Southeast Asia. The best-selling car model in ASEAN in 2021 was the Toyota Hilux. The second best-selling car model was the Isuzu D-Max, another pickup truck. So the ASEAN region loves pickups!

Latin America is a region that includes Mexico, Central America and South America. The best-selling car model in Latin America in 2021 was also the Toyota Hilux. Another pickup-loving part of the world.

Europe is a continent that consists of 44 countries. The best-selling car model in Europe in 2023 was the Tesla Model Y.

North America is a continent that includes Canada, the United States and Mexico. The best-selling car model in North America in 2022 was the Ford F-Series,.

Africa again favours pickups and again the HiLux is the best-selling car.

The world is a planet that has about 200 countries and territories. The best-selling car model in the world in 2022 was the Toyota Corolla, a compact car.

Why is the world average a small car but the most popular in terms of single models almost always a pickup? Because second, third, and fourth places do tend to be dominated by popular small cars around the world.

I watched a few movies on flights recently and the best by far was "Para entrar a vivir". I won't spoil it at all :) but if you like thrillers this is fun.

When I got to Manila I posted a photo saying “I’m not in Europe anymore” just SUVs everywhere, now here’s a photo around the corner of my house… definitely in Europe again, small hatchbacks everywhere.

The Toyota Tamaraw/Rangga Concepts are some of the coolest things Toyota has done recently and I hope they get to production in Thailand and the Philippines. Cheaper and more basic than a HiLux and ready for almost ANY use! theautoph.com/n-2023-250/?fbcl

Istanbul airport is one of the most expensive places on earth. 1000 Euros for a or

They have the Lego Atari though

I’ll miss driving a Fortuner when I go back to the UK. Sure my D-Max is OK, but that Fortuner was fine too 😄

This Chinese car by GAC is called the Trumpchi Emkoo is very affordable and at least to look at inside and out feels like a car about twice to three times the price.

We made it!!!! And this is a police boat with a tonne of horse power.
