27.05.202604:00:00UTC+00French New Car Registrations Plunge 20.3% in April After March Surge

French car registrations swung sharply lower in April 2026, with the indicator dropping to -20.3% month-over-month, according to data updated on 27 May 2026. The decline follows a strong March performance, when registrations jumped 43.8% compared with February 2026.

The figures highlight a sharp reversal in momentum for the French auto market over the two-month period. While March’s surge suggested a short-term boost in demand or registrations, April’s contraction indicates that much of that activity may have been brought forward or that underlying demand remains fragile. The data are based on month-over-month comparisons, meaning April’s reading reflects the change relative to March, while March’s figure was measured against February.
