No sign of improvement for Vietnamese new car sales in September: down 31% year-on-year to 7,018 registrations, which brings the year-to-date total to 55,928 units, down 32% on 2011. The drop deepens to -40% this month for passenger cars… The Toyota Fortuner enjoys its 5th month in a row in pole position with 521 sales and 7.4% and reinforces its 2012 year-to-date leadership at 3,947 units and 7.1%.

The other great performer this month is the Toyota Camry, up 2 ranks on August to #4 with 350 sales and 5% vs. 3.3% year-to-date.
