During the seven-month span, VAMA members sold a total of 163,804 autos, a year-on-year rise of 1%, with the sales of domestically produced units falling 12% to 81,637 units and imported vehicles rising 19% year-on-year to 82,167 units.

Car dealers are offering huge incentives for customers to promote sales in the 7th lunar month which started on August 4. The month is traditionally considered taboo by most Vietnamese for activities concerning large sums of money such as purchasing real estate and cars.
