used car, used car, transport The sale of used cars in the summer significantly surpassed the strong “pre-fashion” year 2019.

The network of AAA Auto car centers set a new historical sales record in July and August, selling a total of 17,250 cars. This is 19 percent more than in the predecessor year of 2019. This is partly due to the shortage of cars associated with the semiconductor crisis, and partly to the constantly rising prices of new cars, which force many to look beyond those driven between the ages of two to three years.

Approximately 23 percent of all cars sold are Škoda, which holds the first place in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, where demand is at about one third, 11 percent is Volkswagen and 7 percent is Ford.

Opel has long been one of the most popular brands in Poland, but in general the demand for individual brands is much more varied than in Slovakia or the Czech Republic. Almost every tenth car sold in the AAA network was a Škoda Octavia, 7 percent was a Fabia and 4 percent a Volkswagen Passat.
