Brazilian vehicle sales down 0.4% to 170,536 units in January 2026 (ANFAVEA)
The Associacao Nacional dos Fabricantes de Veiculos Automores (ANFAVEA) announced that Brazilian vehicle sales (including trucks and buses) decreased 0.4% YOY to 170,536 units in January 2026, due to stable private consumption.
Vehicle sales in January consisted of 125,164 passenger cars; 37,745 light commercial vehicles; 6,447 trucks; and 1,180 buses. Sales of trucks and buses decreased substantially as corporate investment was curbed by the economic slowdown and high interest rates.
