Despite a decline in new vehicle sales in October 2023, South Africans bought just over 45,000 vehicles last month, with some clear favourites across all the car brands that operate in the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Naamsa\u2019s latest New Vehicle Sales stats, aggregate domestic new vehicle sales in October 2023 \u2013 at 45,445 units \u2013 reflected a decline of 905 units or a fall of 2% from the 46,350 vehicles sold in October 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was a result of economic constraints that continued to impact new vehicle sales during the month as the rising cost of living and restrictive borrowing costs were depressing demand for luxury goods, said Naamsa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, TransUnion noted in its latest Vehicle Pricing Index (VPI) that financial pressures and the rising cost of new vehicles in 2023 have pushed motorists to hold onto their cars for longer and stave off buying a new car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This has also resulted in a supply crunch in the used-vehicle market – pushing prices up for second-hand vehicles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best-selling cars <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite the slump, thousands of South Africans chose to purchase a new car, and there were some clear favourites – including Toyota’s Hilux bakkie, the VW Polo Vivo, and the Toyota Corolla Cross medium SUV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the 45,445 vehicles sold in the country in October, crossovers and SUVs were the clear favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the R192,999 Renault Kwid to the R6.8 million Ferrari 296 GTB, brand and price didn\u2019t matter all that much to buyers. What did was the practical body style that garnered more favour than all the other vehicles in the automakers\u2019 catalogues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list below details the best-selling car from every brand in South Africa according to September\u2019s sales figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manufacturers including BAIC, Bentley, BMW, BYD, Ineos, Lamborghini, Maserati, McLaren, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Omoda, Porsche, and Rolls-Royce either do not report sales at all or only report aggregate sales and not model-specific figures and were, therefore, not included.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
