The drastic price reduction of Certificates of Entitlements continue to have a boosting effect on the Singaporean new car market, with sales up a mammoth 79% year-on-year in September to 5.260 registrations. The year-to-date total now stands at 38.933 units, up 93% on the same period last year. Toyota doubles its sales year-on-year to 1.146 to stay in the lead with 21.8% of the market (these figures include Lexus), Honda is up four-fold to 879 sals and 16.7% share, ahead of Nissan (+137%), Mercedes (-20%) and BMW (-7%).
