How is this overview put together?

Every model in our overview with a count, ranked by new registrations in 2026 (RDW). “Sold” here means put on a number plate; sales to companies and private buyers both count. The count is for all versions of the model together (every powertrain), not only the versions in this overview; a model that also has other powertrains is marked.

We only rank the 47 new models of the 10 brands in our own overview, not every car in the Netherlands. A value no official source confirms is not used; the model is then not counted.
