Commenting on the new vehicle sales statistics for the month of January, 2019 – NAAMSA said that domestic new vehicle sales had started the year on a weak note principally due to lower than expected new car sales.
Aggregate domestic sales at 42 374 units had declined by 3 398 units or 7.4% from the 45 772 vehicles sold in January last year.
In contrast, export sales had started the year on a relatively strong note with January 2019 export sales at 18 289 vehicles which reflected a substantial improvement of 4 160 vehicles or a gain of 29.4% compared to the 14 129 vehicles exported in January last year.
