This figure highlights Nissan's strong market presence and consumer confidence in its diverse lineup that caters to various needs.
Japanese Brand Ranking
Toyota secured the second position with 4,442 registrations, demonstrating continued demand for both classic and modern models. Mitsubishi ranked third with 2,316 vehicles, driven by the popularity of its practical and durable models. Despite intense competition, Suzuki maintained fourth place with 1,816 registrations, reflecting steady demand for its economical cars.
Honda in Fifth Place
Honda came fifth with 507 registrations over the same period. Although the number is lower compared to competitors, the brand retains a loyal customer base that values Japanese build quality and reliable engine performance.
