Model T is the number three best selling car in the World to this day.
In sheer numbers, the VW Bug and Toyota Corolla have sold more, but there's no comparison to the T in terms of market share -- I don't know the number, but it was upwards 90% c. 1914 and probably half or so following WWI. Into the 1920s Ford lost marketshare, even as sales went up, which led to the move to the Model A.

No corolla is actually come close to top ten. They are a dozen different models over decades with such name.
I believe the first place is shared between WV Bug and Fiat 124. Ford T is distant third. Actually a single Fiat 124 variant - Lada Riva was moved in much higher quantity than Ford T.
