Taiwan Used Vehicle Market Overview and Size

Taiwan Used Vehicle market in terms of sales volume increased at a single digit CAGR over the review period 2013-2018. The market was observed to be at the late growth stage owing to increasing competition in the market which allows offering of varied models of vehicles at lower prices, faster vehicle replacement rate, easy import procedures, and relatively stable average ticket prices. In Taiwan, people prefer buying used vehicles due to its increased affordability and a wide range of offerings at an affordable price point.

Taiwanese government has also adopted certain strategies such as the “Scrappage Program” to promote discard of vehicles which are older than 6 years.

This has led to intensive competition in the used car market as new car sales are growing at a faster pace vis a viz used car.
