Well, we’re three quarters into 2022 now. With just one quarter left, we now have a somewhat clear picture of what the local auto industry’s year-end sales rankings should look like.
Based on data provided by the Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines (CAMPI) and Truck Manufacturers Association (TMA), Toyota Motor Philippines currently leads the pack with an impressive 124,884 units sold through the first nine months of 2022. That’s good for a 50.33% market share and a 35.3% improvement over the same period last year.
In second place (and a distant one at that) is Mitsubishi Motors Philippines with 35,139 units sold—enough for a 14.16% market share and a 31% growth compared to 2021.
