"class-leading VW Golf, Ford Focus and Opel Astra"
This might have been the case back in 2004. Peugeot 308, Honda Civic and Toyota Auris are the new guys in the segment, and thus the cars to beat, unless class-leading is found using the sales charts in Germany...
I don't see any huge problems with the European model mix:
City cars Aygo is still class leading with the iQ under way.
Supermini: Yaris is still one of the best all-rounders, and the price is high because the product can carry it.
Small city car: Auris. Not the revolution I expected. The article might be right here, but is confused about the cars in the segment
Large family car: Avensis. Sells because of reliability and low prices. Will soon be replaced
SUV: Rav4. It might not have the bulbous shape of some of the latest rivals, but get inside and you will find out why it is the segment leader.
Lost the "plot"?
