Argentina Logs 51,982 October Car Registrations as Spain Reaches 96,785 on Electrification Gains

Electrification led Spain’s upturn, contrasting with tightening affordability in Argentina after fresh list‑price rises.

Overview

  • Argentina’s October registrations rose 16.9% year over year but fell 7.6% from September, taking the January–October total to 552,484 units, up 55.1%, according to ACARA.
  • ACARA said the market’s momentum points to a 2025 finish above 600,000 registrations, with dealers reporting a late‑October pickup linked to election results.
  • Manufacturers implemented November list‑price increases of roughly 4%–5% on many imported models, leaving only five vehicles below ARS 30 million as Toyota kept Hilux pricing unchanged.
