RI Has a New Car ‘King’, But Sorry Not Toyota Avanza!

Jakarta, CNBC Indonesia – The new ‘King’ of Indonesian cars is no longer occupied by the Toyota Avanza. This was due to a drop in sales.

The Association of Indonesian Automotive Industries (Gaikindo) recorded car sales wholesales (distribution from factories to dealers) in October 2021 grew 54.1% yoy compared to October 2020.

Car sales this month fell 10.2% month-to-month (mtm) when compared to last September. This can not be separated from the monthly sales of Avanza which fell 77.41% mtm or only to 1,701 units in October.

This condition makes the Avanza no longer a champion in domestic car sales.

It is said that the news of the appearance of the All New Avanza has an impact on potential consumers who delay purchases to wait for a new model. This is allegedly making national car sales down.

The biggest contribution to national car sales did come from the Avanza. Cars sold from January to October 2021 amounted to 47,972 units.

Meanwhile, the car with the highest sales position last month was the Toyota Rush with sales of 5,312 units.

The largest contribution came from the 2021 New Rush 1.5 GR Sport A/T with sales of 2,798 units, followed by the 2021 New Rush 1.5 GR Sport A/T with 2,508 units.

The two types of New Rush were released with the new GR variant last August, so they are able to attract buyers.

In second and third positions are the Daihatsu Sigra which sold 4,773 units and the Mitsubishi Xpander (including the Xpander Cross) with 4,743 units.

Meanwhile, from the pick up segment, the Daihatsu Gran Max managed to occupy the fourth position of the best-selling car with sales of 4,265 units and the Suzuki Carry Pick Up with 4,188 units sold.

The following is a list of the 10 best-selling cars in October 2021:

1. Toyota Rush: 5.312 unit
