Higher heavy products delivery preserved the sector's performance in a stable scenario
By Redação AutoIndústria | Translated by Jorge Meditsch
The road implements industry closed the first five months of the year with a stable performance. Year to date, the segment delivered about 61.1 thousand units, a slight 1.3% decrease from the 61.9 thousand units delivered one year ago.
According to Anfir, the national road implements industry association, heavy products, mostly trailers and semitrailers, avoid a more negative result.
From January through May, sales grew by almost 4.5% to 34.7 thousand units over the 33.3 thousand delivered last year.
On the other hand, body-on-chassis sales slumped by 8%. Deliveries year to date summed at 26.3 thousand units, while in the first five months of 2022, they reached 28.6 thousand.
The market shows distinct behaviors
According to José Carlos Spricigo, ANfir’s president, the market’s behavior shows a mismatch out of normal. The implement industry is currently delivering 1.7 trailers or semitrailers for each truck sold – historically, the relation was 1.3. Bodies-on-chassis are selling 1.1 for each licensed truck, a more adjusted proportion.
“The market is out of balance. I believe that it is due to the economic policy changes and a reflex of the Proconve P8 start”, he said.
The association leader says the sector industry is anxious about the new federal government’s fiscal policy. “This is a moment of reflection and to watch how the Brazilian economy will behave after the measure is effectively implanted.”
