Even if they have not yet acquired the same importance as in the new market, used SUVs are enjoying growing success. In particular when they are of French nationality as shown by our top 30 of the most traded models in 2021.
It is implacable logic: the second-hand market always registers a certain gap compared to the new one. Among the top ten second-hand sales, there are still no SUVs. Blame it on the fairly recent craze for this type of bodywork. Significantly, pioneers such as the Toyota RAV4 and Honda CR-V do not feature at the top of the rankings.

The 3008 is ahead of the 2008 and Captur
No, the first place goes to a much more recent model, Peugeot 3008, which is only in its second generation. Not really a surprise, however, given the continued success of this second version, which largely dominates its predecessor on occasion: it represents 21,701 of the 54,731 copies sold in the first half of 2021. Just behind, there are two even younger tricolor adventurers, but also smaller and more affordable: the Peugeot 2008 and Renault Captur. If the Lion wins once again, the match is played in a pocket square. With a distribution that differs according to the generation taken into account. If the Captur 1 is dominated by the 2008 1, the situation is reversed for their second version.

Dacia and Nissan to reinforce Renault
The fourth position of Dacia Duster is not a surprise either, in view of the enthusiasm it meets in France. But the Renault-Nissan alliance also manages to place its Qashqai in fifth position. While it has less taken center stage in France in recent years, this Japanese made in Great Britain remains very much alive on occasion. It is even ahead of another “veteran” of the category from Germany, the Volkswagen Tiguan. While we have to wait for the 8e place to find a Citroën model, the C3 Aircross. The Chevrons are penalized here by their late arrival in the segment.
