Van registrations in 2013 grew 13.1%
year-on-year (YoY) to 271,073 units.
There was a spike in truck registrations of
23% to 56,218 units due to the impending
Euro 6 emissions regulations.
The cost of ownership is like to be higher
after the regulations come into force.
Growth goes green..
The bus and coach sector saw a 3.3% YoY decline in registrations in 2013. However, there has been growth
over the last ve months as operators are looking to invest in new fuel efcient and cleaner vehicles. The
introduction of new Euro 6 trucks in 2014 would be of key interest to the heavy end of the market; the
forthcoming launches of several new light commercial vans is expected to boost growth in the sector.
