Methodology

Know where every figure comes from

We separate source data from estimates, show freshness and disclose limitations, so you can use the results safely in business decisions.

We do not hide uncertainty behind an attractive chart. Every important metric explains its source, scope and calculation method.

Sources and freshness shown with the data

Transparent estimation assumptions

Continuous quality and consistency checks

01

Registration data

The demand view is based on monthly CEPiK data organised by segment, brand, model and region.

02

Companies, networks and images

We combine importer and dealer information from public registers and verified company sources. Images are matched to a canonical model family and remain illustrative; model year, colour, equipment or variant may differ.

03

Market value

Market value is an estimate based on registrations, model prices, model years and transparent depreciation assumptions — not company-declared sales.

How to read the data responsibly

Registrations versus sales

A registration is an observable administrative event and an important demand signal. It does not automatically mean a sale in the same month or revenue for a specific company.

Brand and model names

We normalise source records to combine spelling variants. Ambiguous records remain flagged or are assigned to a broader model family.

Companies and relationships

We build importer–brand–dealer relationships from multiple sources. A relationship represents a verified market signal, not a guarantee of a current commercial agreement.

Market-value estimates

Results depend on reference prices, model year, segment and depreciation assumptions. The panel shows price coverage so users can assess the strength of the estimate.

Freshness

The latest closed month and data coverage are visible in the panel. We do not present a partial month as a complete result without clearly marking it.

Corrections

If a source is updated or we identify a classification error, we may correct historical data so subsequent analysis uses a better foundation.
