The Venezuelan new car market drops 56% year-on-year in September but gains 40% on last month to 271 registrations, leading to a year-to-date tally down 83% to 2.362 units. This slight resurgence is due to the restored of Toyota production and local sales in late August after a 6 month-stop. The Japanese manufacturers sells 100 units this month, making it two manufacturers still in activity in the country with Ford at 165 deliveries and 60.9% market share. The Toyota Hilux is the best-seller in Venezuela with 60 sales ahead of the Ford Explorer – still #1 year-to-date, Toyota Fortuner and Ford Ecosport. Note the Hilux manufactured and sold in Venezuela is the previous generation.
