South Africa’s vehicle market continues to gain traction in the early part of 2022, new sales data from the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa (Naamsa) shows.<\/p>\n

Chief executive officer of Naamsa, Mikel Mabasa, said that aggregate domestic new vehicle sales in February 2022, at 44,229 units, reflected an 18.4% increase of 6,860 units from the 37,369 vehicles sold at the same time last year.<\/p>\n

“Export sales, encouragingly, also recorded an increase of 12.3% from last year with 32,867 units being exported.”<\/p>\n

Mabasa stressed that the sale of light commercial vehicles, bakkies and mini-buses in particular increased by 9.4% from last year with a total of 12,290 units sold.<\/p>\n

in the pick-up market, Toyota Hilux still reigns supreme, with 3,503 units sold domestically in February. Isuzu D-Max with 1,401 units sold continued its good run, while the single cab Nissan NP200 was third, given its enticing price point, and value for money.<\/p>\n

Isuzu is set to launch its next-generation D-Max bakkie in the coming months, as is Ford with an all-new Ranger – including an updated exterior, which is likely to shake up the sales market.<\/p>\n
