Car Features - Best Selling Car Nameplates in the Philippines from 1995-2016

In 2016 alone, 452,751 cars were driven off dealer floors (means 1,237 cars per day are sold or 51 cars per hour) and this is an all time high for the Philippine market. This article sees new names and old timers beating their old records. This 21 year old data shows you the best sellers here.

Do take note that vehicle figures here are from the manufacturer itself and lists available information that are released, so other models that sold well but not reported will not be counted here.
