The National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa’s (Naamsa) New Vehicle Sales stats for September 2022 show a year-on-year increase amid the despondency about load shedding and other weakening economic indicators.

Naamsa noted that the September 2022 new passenger car market had registered an increase of 9,7% compared to new cars sold in September 2021. The car rental industry supported the new passenger car market during the month and accounted for a solid 18,9% of sales in September 2022.

September 2022 was by far the worst month of the year in terms of the cumulative amount of load-shedding. The higher stages of load-shedding seem to have an amplified negative impact on production and the South African economy as a whole. The global economy has entered a period of persistently high inflation and weaker economic growth impacting demand, said Naamsa.
