Car sales up by nine percent

Sales of cars have climbed by nine percent, while sales of light utility vehicles are up by 13 percent, according to figures quoted by the Car Importers Association today. Škoda remains the most popular car in the country with Ford models coming in second, albeit with less than a quarter of Škoda’s sales. The rise in sales is attributed to strong rising living standards as well as a fall in prices of automobiles. Motorcycle and bus sales are also up.
