In half a year, 65,000 used cars were imported
In the first six months of this year, 65,275 used cars were imported into Serbia, of which 12,703 were Volkswagen, announced the Serbian Association of Importers of Vehicles and Parts.
The association reminds that 18,256 new passenger and light commercial vehicles were sold in Serbia in the first six months.
The analysis of data on used vehicles registered for the first time shows that vehicles with Euro 3 and Euro 4 engines are still being imported without hindrance, and our country is littered with vehicles that are unsafe, environmentally unacceptable, and in a large number of countries their import is not allowed, announced the Serbian Association of Importers of New vehicles and parts.
In the structure of the import of used vehicles in the first six months of this year, almost half of the total number were vehicles with Euro 3 and Euro 4 engines.
Thus, a total of 6,273 vehicles were imported whose engines meet only the Euro 3 standard, or 9.61 percent. 23,345 vehicles with Euro 4 engines were imported, or 35.76 percent.
Vehicles with Euro 5 engines make up 29.90 percent of the total import of used cars (19,514 used vehicles), and 16,143 used vehicles with Euro 6 engines, which makes up 24.73 percent.
When it comes to the import of used cars, only 3,826 were registered for the first time in this period and are younger than five years old.
