Who sells the imported used cars

Used · last 12 months (2025-11 → 2026-10) · 154,350 used-import registrations in total. Units are registrations; a "designation" is the model string exactly as the source records it (where that includes the trim, trims are separate designations). Powertrain as recorded by the source's own fuel field.

Used imports (the Used variant): used passenger cars at their first Spanish registration (DGT IND_NUEVO_USADO = U, procedure 1) — overwhelmingly imports. BEV / PHEV / EREV / HEV from DGT's electric-vehicle category, exactly as in the Used CSV.

How the data flows

Origin
DGT — Dirección General de Tráfico
Download

DGT publishes one zip per month with one fixed-width record per registered vehicle (714 characters, 69 fields). One pass over the file fills every variant; a month with more than 1% of records of another length, or a Whole total under 2,000, stops the run.

Until that monthly zip is out (around the 15th), the month is summed from DGT's daily zips instead — same records, one file per registration day — but only once every weekday file (national holidays excepted) is there. Those rows are marked provisional and the monthly zip replaces them.

Pick the vehicles

Cars and two-wheelers are picked by DGT's national vehicle type; vans, lorries and buses by the EU homologation category, which DGT records for them reliably.

Whole is every new vehicle DGT registers as a passenger car — EU class M1 — with no model list on top. It therefore also holds the off-roaders (type 25) and the passenger versions of vans (Multivan, Tourneo, Berlingo, Proace Verso, …, about 2% of the market), which ANFAC — and with it ACEA — counts as light commercials; some DGT-based sites also leave out the off-roaders.

DGT vehicle type?
  • 40 turismo or 25 todo terreno (passenger car, off-roader)
    incl. passenger versions of vans (Multivan, Tourneo, Berlingo, …), which ANFAC/ACEA count as vans — about 2% of Whole

Powertrain

DGT labels every electrified vehicle with an electric-vehicle category. Only where that label is empty does the propulsion code of the technical inspection decide.

Electric-vehicle category?
  • BEVBEV
  • PHEVPHEV
  • REEV — range extenderEREV

    Propulsion code?
    • 0 — petrolPETROL
    • 1 — dieselDIESEL
    • 2 — electricBEV
      an electric vehicle without a category label — rare
    • anything else — LPG, CNG, LNG, hydrogen, …OTHERS
Render

Each new or changed month re-renders the country. Shares are read from the CSV as column ÷ TOTAL and grouped into three curves. A generalized Weibull S-curve is fitted to the BEV and the ICE share, and the charts, the fitted parameters, the twelve-month totals and the uncertainty bands are rewritten.

Which curve does a CSV column count towards?
  • BEVBEV
  • PHEV or EREV (plug-in hybrids, range extenders)
    Does the source split plug-ins from other hybrids?
    • yesPHEV
    • no — one combined hybrid figure (parked in HEV)ICE
      the PHEV curve is left out, never drawn at zero
  • HEV or MHEV (full and mild hybrids — no plug)ICE

Which fuel columns this source fills

A blank column almost never means "no such cars" — it means this source does not split them out, and those vehicles are counted inside another column. Check the caveats for where they land.
