Despite the heavy vehicle market cooldown indications due to the transition from Proconve’s phase 7 to 8, deliveries in the first trimester increased by 12.45%. Truck and bus licensing reached 34.8 thousand units, compared to 30.8 thousand in 2022.
According to Fenabrave’s data released this Tuesday, 4/4, the truck market purchased 9.3 thousand units, a 19.7% increase over February (7.8 thousand), but 7.3% lower than in the same month last year (10.1 thousand).
27.4 thousand trucks were delivered, 2.6% more than one year ago (26.7 thousand units).
According to Andreta Jr., Fenabrave’s president, the warmed sales still refer to the previous generation’s Euro 5 trucks. “The market is adjusting to the new vehicles, but credit remains selective and financing conditions impact performance”, he said in a note.
The heavy market shows a consistent recovery

In the first quarter, sales achieved 7.3 thousand buses, more than the 4.2 thousand deliveries last year. “Consistent recovery signals are already visible. Last year’s growth was 23.4%’, recalls Andreta Jr.
