Here's Your Full June (And H1) 2024 New Car Sales Breakdown


New car sales experienced a slight decline in June 2024 with a 2.9 percent decrease compared to the previous month. This was shown in the joint report of the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines (CAMPI) and the Truck Manufacturers Association (TMA).

According to a CAMPI-TMA statement, the slight sales dip can be attributed to several factors. One is the delays in the arrival of vehicle units due to port congestions. Second is the supply limitation for “fast-moving variants.” Finally, there is also a decline in consumer demand.

Toyota remained the best-selling car brand in the Philippines last month logging in 18,093 units in sales for a 46.29 percent market share. They’re followed in second place by Mitsubishi with 7,453 units (19.07 percent), Nissan in third with 2,380 units (6.09 percent), Ford in fourth with 2,219 units (5.68 percent), and Suzuki rounding out the Top 5 with 1,675 units (4.29 percent).

As a whole, Chinese brands have managed to corner a 5.84 percent market share last June—consistent with the previous months. MG is far and away the best-selling brand from the mainland with 726 units sold last month. With its distributorship changing hands, Foton (340 units) has managed to re-overtake Geely (315 units) to become June’s third best-selling Chinese brand just behind MG and GAC Motor (351 units). Meanwhile, Changan sales have dropped significantly with their second worst monthly performance with just 67 units sold.

On the subject of month-on-month performance, Jaguar Land Rover stood out as the biggest climber, percentage-wise with sales up 132 percent versus May. Kia is also another strong performer with its sales up 70 percent month-on-month. For June’s biggest losers, brands handled by Inchcape didn’t perform well with Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, Mercedes-Benz, and Changan all registering drops of 73 percent, 52 percent, and 32 percent respectively.

      Subaru is part of AVID which hasn't publicly released sales data for quite some time now.

    MG still mainly relies on the volume sales of the aging but affordable MG5 and MGZS
    MG One isn't that popular due to its incomplete safety features (no ADAS on all variants).
    MG3 seems hard to sell despite having really good specs and looks..MG dealers needs to give away huge cash discounts for the variants of MG3 to make it even more sellable
    Sales of Changan are the lowest due to poor pricing and lack of vast dealership network

      Not really
      Most of them including Subaru got terrible reliability issues and expensive maintenance costs
      Indonesian and Thailand made Toyota vehicles are also prone to broken electronics and transmission
