Sales of commercial vehicles over 2 tons gvw in East Asia’s seven main markets, excluding China, rebounded by almost 32% to a combined 329,034 units in the second quarter of 2021 after plunging by over 38% to 250,023 units in the same period of last year - according to data compiled by www.AsiaMotorBusiness.com from numerous industry sources.
The strongest growth in the second quarter was seen in South-East Asia’s developing markets, which rebounded from very low figures in the same quarter of the previous year when strict lockdown measures were in force to slow the initial spread of the COVID-19 virus.
