JOHANNESBURG - People are struggling in these tough financial times but they are still buying new cars.
New vehicle sales increased by double digits in June.
The sector saw a year-on-year increase of 14%.
The Automotive Business Council says affordability seems to be driving new vehicle sales.
Export sales however dropped by over 12.5%.
The council says this is due to the devastating KZN floods and it's impact on vehicle production and exports.
