Thailand’s 7-way, 7-seater sales battle goes to the Toyota Veloz for yet another month, as the model continues its lead in April 2023 and subsequently the year-to-date numbers.
Autolife.tv‘s data points the Alza’s sibling netting 1,115 units sold in the fourth month of 2023, a slight drop from last month. Its closest rival, the Mitsubishi Xpander, eked out 1,002 cars sold in the same month.
This means the Toyota still maintains top spot at this juncture, with 5,042 cars moved thus far in 2023. Mitsubishi is in second place, with 4,359 units sold since January.
