During August 2024, Ukraine saw the registration of over 8,100 new passenger cars, marking a new record for the past 32 months, even as the country faces full-scale warfare. However, by September, a decline in market activity was observed.
In September 2024, Ukrainians purchased 5,700 new passenger cars, which is a 30% decrease compared to the record figures from August. This downturn can be considered quite predictable. Following the unusually high demand in August, spurred by announcements from Ukrainian leaders regarding tax increases on car purchases, a natural correction in demand and a return to typical levels ensued.
In fact, the number of new passenger cars registered in Ukraine in September 2024 was nearly identical to that of September 2023, with a mere increase of 0.1%.
TOYOTA continues to lead the Ukrainian new car market, although sales of this brand have decreased compared to September of the previous year.
TOP-5 new car brands in Ukraine for September 2024:
- TOYOTA — 840 cars (-13%);
- RENAULT — 541 cars (+21%);
- SKODA — 443 cars (-5%);
- BMW — 433 cars (-12%);
- VOLKSWAGEN — 336 cars (-48%).
The most popular vehicle among Ukrainians in September was the RENAULT Duster crossover, which accounted for 504 registrations.
In total, for the first three quarters of 2024, Ukrainians purchased 53,000 new passenger cars, reflecting a 21% increase compared to the same period last year.
