April 2026
What's the monthly trend?
New vehicle registrations have followed a volatile but upward trajectory, with the rolling average climbing to record highs by late 2025 (strong rental purchases). March 2026 marked the peak of 14,300 units (end of financial year) - before dropping back down to April lows.
Used imports are different - with prolonged structural decline from ~9,400 units in early 2024 to a trough in April 2025 - their weakest month - with modest, inconsistent recovery since.
