RI`s car sales exceed Thailand`s

Indonesia`s four wheel car sales in the first five months of 2010 have reached 299.824 units, exceeding those of Thailand which were only 286.000 units, a businessman said.

 

"We have not yet known the data on Indonesia`s car sales in the first semester but in the first five months, its car sales have exceeded that of Thailand," Bambang Trisulo, member of the Advisory Council of the Indonesian Motor Vehicle Industry Association (Gaikindo) said here on Friday.

 

He said that in term of the number of production Thailand remained on the top list but in the sales Indonesia had defeated it.

 

In the first five months of this year, Thailand`s four wheel vehicle production has reached 620,000 units but it has sold only 286,000 units, he said.
