Vehicles Import of the Philippines: The Trade Analysis of 2024

The vehicle import of the Philippines has increased in 2024. The limited local production and the supply chain constraints have led to an import of over 80% of the vehicles demanded by the domestic population. Philippines Export Data says, the entry of Chinese brands like BYD, MG, Geely, Cherry, and Jitor with competitive pricing and fresh models has expanded the import volumes of the Philippines. The thriving electric vehicle industry due to the increasing demand from the domestic population has prompted rapid growth.
