According to the source, the sales of new passenger cars of foreign production increased noticeably. Thus, the number of transactions increased by 25% and amounted to 2.900 units in March. This is the reported growth rate of 2.2 times compared to March 2022.
The sharp increase in sales of foreign-made cars could be due to a Presidential decree from January 1, 2023, that allows people to import foreign cars into the territory of Uzbekistan.
