Toyota and Suzuki are two prominent players in Southern Africa’s automotive sector. Through their collaboration, the following models share the same platform: Toyota Starlet and Suzuki Baleno Toyota Rumion and Suzuki Ertiga Toyota Vitz and Suzuki Celerio Toyota Starlet Cross and Suzuki Fronx Toyota Urban Cruiser and Suzuki Vitara Brezza Namibia’s vehicle sales for August reveal that Toyota is outselling Suzuki, even though the vehicles are essentially identical. For example, 20 Toyota Starlets' were sold compared to no Suzuki Balenos', 49 Toyota Starlet Cross units were sold versus 19 Suzuki Fronx, and 14 Toyota Urban Cruisers were sold against just 1 Suzuki Grand Vitara. Toyota's stronger sales performance can be attributed to its solid reputation, extensive dealership network, and perception of higher quality. Other factors may include financing options, model availability, additional features, and the fact that many people are unaware of the Toyota-Suzuki partnership. #data #automotive #sales #trade #namibia

Wondering if you'll have to pay a tyre stewardship fee on your secondhand tyres? It depends on where they became second-hand. Second-hand tyres which are imported into Aotearoa New Zealand will be subject to Tyrewise, in the same way as new regulated tyre imports are. Tyres which become second-hand in Aotearoa New Zealand will not require payment of tyre stewardship fees at point of sale, as this will have already been paid at the time of their original import.  (Don't forget, Tyrewise covers all pneumatic (air-filled) and solid tyres for use on motorised vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, aircraft, trailers, and off-road vehicles.)
