Overview

  • ACARA reported 55,827 new‑vehicle registrations in September, up 27.8% year over year, lifting the January–September total to 500,089 units.
  • Toyota Yaris led September with 3,037 registrations and narrowly overtook the Fiat Cronos in the year‑to‑date tally (26,023 vs 26,009).
  • Dealers cited a sustained monthly floor of roughly 50,000 sales as credit availability supports demand, with pickups and SUVs remaining strong performers.
  • Ámbito reported a severe storm halted production at Toyota’s Porto Feliz engine plant in Brazil, a developing issue that could constrain Yaris and Corolla supply and delay the Yaris Cross launch.
  • Spain registered 85,167 turismos in September (+16.4% y/y) with hybrids at 41.4% and plug‑in hybrids at 12.1% of sales, while Scotiabank projects Peru’s market to grow about 15% in 2025 to roughly 195,000 units.
