New vehicle sales continued to decline in June with the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa (NAAMSA) recording an admittedly slight drop of 1.6% from last year’s 46 663 unit sales, to 45 939 this year.
Individual segments ended the month mixed with new passenger vehicle sales falling by 3.2% from 29 827 to 28 885, while light commercial vehicle sales u-turned from May’s downturn by increasing 1.2% from 14 322 to 14 495.
In a repeat of the previous month though, medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicle sales were mixed with the former increasing by 16.0% to settle at 834 units, though the latter fell by 3.9% to end the month on 1 725 units.
Reversing May’s substantial losses, exports bounced back in June in improving by 14.3% from 26 785 last year to 30 604 in 2019.
