• Top 5 in February: Hyundai, Kia, Chevrolet, Chery, Jetour

According to the Kazakhstan Automobile Union (KAU), in February 2026 official dealers in Kazakhstan sold 13,399 new passenger and commercial vehicles, which is 16.1% lower than in February of the previous year. As a result of the first two months, 27,643 vehicles were sold, which is 1.5% higher than in the same period last year.

Anar MAKASHEVA, President of KAU:“Despite the decline in sales in February, based on the results of the first two months, the new car market in Kazakhstan maintains positive dynamics. It is important to note that all models included in the top ten most popular vehicles in February are manufactured in Kazakhstan. This confirms the high level of trust among Kazakhstan consumers in domestically produced automotive products.”

Hyundai returned to the first position in the Top 10 best-selling brands in February (2,768 units; -31.2% compared to February last year). Kia retains the second position – 2,402 vehicles sold (+33.1%). Chevrolet closes the top three – 1,975 units (-5%). Further down the list: Chery (1,043 units; +0.4%), Jetour (808 units; -30.3%), Changan (748 units; +34.8%), Haval (535 units; -25.1%), Geely (403 units; -46.8%), Jac (357 units; -53%), and Toyota (288 units; -58.3%).

Among brands outside the top ten, BYD demonstrates the highest growth dynamics: in February, sales amounted to 268 hybrid and electric vehicles, which is 793.3% higher than a year earlier. It is also worth noting a newcomer to the market – Geely Galaxy, whose sales in February amounted to 125 vehicles, including new energy models.

At the top of the list of the most popular models in February: Chevrolet Cobalt (1,761 units). In second place is Hyundai Tucson (1,744 units), and the third position is held by Kia Sportage (1,278 units). Further down the list: Changan CS55 Plus (513 units), Kia Soluto (382 units), Kia Sorento (352 units), Chery Tiggo 2 (325 units), Chery Tiggo 7 (313 units), Jetour X70 Plus (310 units), and Hyundai Mufasa (254 units). All models included in the top ten best-selling vehicles in February are produced in Kazakhstan.

In the brand ranking for the first two months, Hyundai leads with 5,466 vehicles (-24.3%). In second place is Kia with 5,176 vehicles sold (+85.9%). Kia has nearly doubled its sales and is close to catching up with Hyundai. Chevrolet holds the third position – 4,487 units (+37.2%). Further down the list: Chery – 2,050 units (+17.3%), Changan – 1,465 units (+58%), Jetour – 1,408 units (-19.1%), Haval – 1,081 units (-16.5%), Jac – 1,040 units (-22.9%), Geely – 753 units (-46.9%), and Toyota – 685 units (-46.4%).
