Ukrainian car market halves in 2014 - Ukrautoprom
According to the Ukrautoprom association, the Ukrainian new passenger car market in 2014 amounted to 97,020 units, 2.2 times less than in 2013.
Association said that "Thus, as predicted earlier, the level of the realized effective demand for new cars in the past year was the lowest since 2002.”
According to its data, the most popular automotive brand on the Ukrainian market in 2014 was Toyota, whose primary registration amounted to 10,296 cars (in particular, at the expense of car supply to the Interior Ministry for Kyoto Protocol funds), which was however 33% less than a year earlier.
The second most popular brand among Ukrainians was China's Geely - 9,365 cars, of which more than 7,000 cars were assembled in Ukraine (at Kremenchuk car plant, which was halted by the owners). The fall in the sale of these cars in 2013 was 43%.
