Summer has arrived, and so has convertible season across Denmark. New figures from Mobility Denmark show that the Danish car fleet now includes 31,327 convertibles, with 1,930 of these newly registered within the last four years.
In the first half of 2026, 126 new convertibles were registered in Denmark. That marks a 30.4 percent drop compared to the same period in 2025. Even so, the broader shift toward electric mobility in Denmark is clearly reaching the convertible segment.
Electric convertibles surge in popularity
In 2026, 38.9 percent of newly registered convertibles were fully electric. This is a dramatic jump from just 1.7 percent two years ago, showing how quickly Danish drivers are embracing battery powered open top motoring.
Mobility Denmark’s communications director Kristine Vind noted that although new convertible registrations have declined over the past year, the overall fleet has grown steadily for years. She pointed out that more Danes than ever can now enjoy summer with the roof down, and that convertibles highlight how cars are about far more than transport, offering freedom, experience, and pure driving pleasure.
Grey remains the top convertible colour
For the third year running, grey holds the top spot among newly registered convertibles, accounting for 27 percent of registrations in 2026. Red follows closely behind with 23.8 percent, continuing its strong showing from 2025. Black takes third place among new registrations with 19 percent, though it remains the most common colour across the entire convertible fleet.
MG, Mercedes-Benz and Mazda lead the brand race
According to data from bilstatistik.dk, the most popular convertible brands in Denmark in 2026 are MG, Mercedes-Benz and Mazda.
The MG Cyberster is by far the leading model, holding 34.9 percent of the market in the first half of the year since arriving in Denmark just a few years ago. The Mercedes-Benz CLE comes second with a 22.2 percent share, while the Mazda MX-5 rounds out the top three with 12.7 percent of new registrations in the first half of 2026.
