Car market share by segment in Italy 2021

Over the course of 2021, small cars (or the B-segment) made up 37.6 percent of the total car market in Italy. B-segment is a car classification defined by the European Commission as larger than cars in the A-segment and smaller than those in the C-segment. They are nippy enough for city driving and have high MPG ratings while having more space for luggage and passengers. Luxury cars (F-segment, or full-size luxury/high-end luxury), on the other hand, only held 0.3 percent of the car market in Italy. Car ownership Italians seem to love cars. According to a 2021 survey, only five percent of Italian respondents did not have a car permanently available in their household, while over 80 percent of Italians owned their own car. Fiat was the brand of choice by far, with over 21 percent of participants in the survey reporting it as the brand of their primarily used car. Fuel type Quite interesting is the fuel type selected by Italian car drivers. If we look at the number of passenger cars sold, diesel hybrids had the strongest year-on-year growth in 2021. Other hybrids also had strong growth including plug-on and non-plug-in segments. Despite falling new vehicle sales in Italy during 2020, demand for all electric segments increased including battery electric models which doubled in volume.

在2021年期间，小型汽车（或称B级车）占据了意大利汽车市场的37.6%。B级车是欧洲委员会定义的一种车型分类，其尺寸介于A级车与C级车之间。这类车型在城市驾驶中表现出足够的灵活性，同时具备较高的每加仑英里数（MPG）以及更多的行李和乘客空间。另一方面，豪华车型（F级车，或全尺寸豪华/高端豪华车型）在意大利汽车市场中仅占据了0.3%的份额。关于汽车拥有率，意大利人似乎对汽车情有独钟。根据2021年的调查，仅有5%的意大利受访者表示其家庭中无固定汽车可用，而超过80%的意大利人拥有自己的汽车。菲亚特品牌在调查中遥遥领先，超过21%的受访者表示其为他们主要使用的汽车品牌。在燃料类型方面，意大利汽车驾驶者选择的燃料类型颇具特色。若以售出的乘用车数量为基准，柴油混合动力车型在2021年实现了显著的一年间增长。其他混合动力车型，包括插电式和非插电式车型，也呈现出强劲的增长势头。尽管在2020年意大利的新车销量有所下降，但包括电池电动汽车在内的所有电动车型段的销量需求均有所上升，其中电池电动汽车的销量翻倍。
