What truck tractors do Ukrainian carriers choose? Results of September

Auto stats

Experts of the Auto Market Research Institute analyzed vehicle registration statistics in Ukraine during September and identified the most popular models in three segments of truck tractors: used import, domestic resale, and new purchase.

Dynamics of the truck tractor market

In September 2024, Ukrainians purchased a total of 1,565 new and used truck tractors. This figure is a significant 41.6% less than the same period in 2023, and 16.6% less than sales in August 2024.

And this is the third segment reviewed by IDA analysts, which is directly related to business, and in which a clear trend of a significant decrease in volumes can be observed. The situation is similar in the group of trucks with a gross weight of more than 3.5 tons, as well as in the LCV segment. In general, this is a rather negative indicator, which is rather a consequence than a cause, that is, it reflects signs of business stagnation in the country.
