2007 new vehicle sales off to a flying
start
The new vehicle market surged ahead again in January, posting a total of 6732 passenger car sales and 1700 commercial vehicle sales. Passenger car sales were 6.6% ahead of January 2006 and commercials were 14.6% up. It was the biggest January for both categories for 23 years.
“This is a very encouraging start to the new year,” said Perry Kerr, CEO of the Motor Industry Association. “Buyers are clearly responding to the tremendous value for money on offer in today’s new vehicle market, and it’s pleasing that new sales records are being set at a time when the used import market continues its decline.”
Top selling marque in January was again Toyota, with 1595 units in total, ahead of Holden on 1226 and Ford on 831. Corolla took out top selling model line with 655, just ahead of Commodore on 623.
