Only 224 new light vehicles found a buyer in Venezuela in April, a further 20% drop on an already atone score a year ago. The year-to-date tally is down 26% to 889. Only two manufacturers manage to sell more than 10 units this month: Toyota with a 60.3% market share and Ford down 66% to 34.8% share. Jeep, Dodge and Mack add up to a mere 11 units. Model-wise, the previous generation Toyota Hilux holds 42% of the market this month, distancing the Ford Explorer (17%) and Toyota Fortuner (13.4%), with the Ford F-250 and Toyota Corolla also lodging double-digit sales figures. It’s fair to say Venezuela is now a used car market.
