What happened last January in Israel regarding new vehicle registrations is worthy of study. With the country confined, the economic recession in full swing and the limitation of personal movement, a sales record has been achieved by reaching the 48,242 units which represents an increase of 15.7%.
January is usually a good month for car sales given that users in Israel tend to reduce their purchases in the last quarter to purchase their new vehicle in the new year (something that guarantees a higher residual value, a situation that also happens in Spain ). The curious thing in this 2021 has been that the confinement has not caused any problem to increase the registrations, with many purchases made over the phone.
