Affordability drives new car sales to a decade high
The Citizen
|December 08, 2025
South Africa's automotive market has posted its strongest quarterly performance in more than a decade.
Sales of new passenger vehicles rose 23.4% year-on-year to 111697 units in the third quarter.
TransUnion's Q3 2025 Mobility Insights Report reveals that the rebound was supported by easing interest rates, a firmer rand and sharply reduced new car inflation, which fell to 1.5%, the lowest since tracking began in 2008.
“Affordability and choice are redefining South Africa’s automotive landscape,” says Lee Naik, CEO of TransUnion Africa.
