Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, June 09, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Vietnam’s passenger vehicle market has witnessed rapid growth compared to its ASEAN peers in the recent years, growing at a CAGR of ~38% from 2012 – 2016. Moreover, sales are expected to reach ~225,000 units by 2020. The country’s increasing population and a rising middle class with disposable income have fueled demand for passenger vehicles as consumers begin to move away from traditional reliance on two-wheel transportation.
The surging demand for passenger vehicles has been driven by a number of factors, including: macroeconomic growth, sociocultural trends and an increasingly liberalized trade environment with the tariffs decreasing from 50% in 2015 to 0% in 2018 on passenger vehicle imports among ASEAN-member countries.
Driven by strong economic growth at ~6.2% in 2016, Vietnam has one of the region’s fastest-growing middle-income groups which is now shifting towards four wheelers. Furthermore, passenger vehicles also serve as an important status symbol, evident in the strength of luxury brands. Markets for luxury passenger vehicles in Vietnam, such as Mercedes, are one of the world’s fastest growing markets among the affluent Vietnamese income group.
But despite these opportunities, Vietnam’s passenger vehicle market faces certain barriers, including:
· High taxes and fees levied to protect the local passenger vehicle industry as well as to reduce pollution and congestion.
· New regulations that will only favor small engine capacity passenger vehicles.
· Local manufacturing limited with a shallow supply base, resulting in increased reliance on imports.
