Car consumption in October to increase

 

The continuous increase of imported cars to Vietnam will help alleviate part of the supply thirst in the automobile market. The demand for shopping in the market is still abundant. Therefore, when the supply is proactive, the general purchasing power at the end of the year will increase sharply.

The number of vehicles arriving at the port mainly comes from the supply capacity of factories in foreign countries when the supply chain of components is gradually improved. The connection of global parts supply chains is also clearly reflected in the domestic CKD car market.

From the positive signals about the supply of car manufacturers, it is forecasted that until the end of 2022, the total automobile purchasing power in Vietnam's market will grow significantly. That will make up for the period of repression since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic.
