While the Model Y remained popular in China, Corolla sales in the region dropped by 29 percent. And at the same time as the Y enjoyed a 68 percent uplift in the U.S. the Corolla was dropping sales to the tune of 10 percent.

Unless Tesla suffers some catastrophic disaster the Model Y is going to finish 2023 as the world’s best selling car. Looking back at the full-year numbers for 2022 we can see that the Model Y came third with 747,700 units, behind the Corolla , which itself was pipped by Toyota’s own RAV4 ., though.
