The August decline was less than in previous months, helped in part by the approaching annual Idul Fitri holidays. On a month-on-month basis, the market is showing an improving trend, with sales rising by 5.6% compared with July’s 43,548 units and almost 30% higher than the 35,455-unit monthly average of the first half of the year.


PT Toyota Astra Motor sold a total of 18,145 vehicles in August, 7% less than a year earlier. Its most popular model was the Avanza with 9,115 sales, followed by the Innova with 3,715 units.
