Vehicle output in April stood at 170,438 units, up 17 percent on April 2012, but down 33 percent on March (this was due to fewer working days in the month).

Domestic car sales over the month were 109,658 units, an increase of 24 percent over April 2012, but a decline of 30 percent on March.  However, sales over Q1 this year stood at 522,914 units, up 42 percent on the same period last year.

The export market showed the same basic trends, with a total of 67,641 vehicles exported in April, up 22 percent on April 2012, but down 34 percent on March this year.

Despite poor sales figures for most manufacturers in Europe, Thailand appears to be sheltered from that downturn, and the future is looking good locally.
