Suzuki’s Microvan Sales Skyrocket by 1077%: December 2025 Car Sales Breakdown
The automotive sector closed December 2025 on a largely positive note, with good year-on-year (YoY) growth across most segments. While the usual year-end slowdown caused a month-on-month (MoM) dip as buyers held off for 2026 registrations, the overall numbers point to a recovering market. Passenger car sales totalled 13,280 units, up 35% from last December but down 14% from November.
Here is a detailed look at how each manufacturer performed.

Sold 2,312 units, up 40% YoY. The sedan and crossover segment (Corolla, Yaris, and Corolla Cross) remained strong with 83% growth. However, the high-end SUV and pickup market struggled, with Fortuner and Hilux sales plunging by 61%.

Future Outlook
Analysts are optimistic about fiscal year 2026. The recovery in passenger car and commercial vehicle sales is expected to continue, supported by lower interest rates that make financing more accessible. Additionally, easing inflation and the introduction of new hybrid and plug-in hybrid models are likely to keep consumer interest high in the coming months.
