  • Azerbaijan Auto Market 2025

    I came across an interesting post on Reddit. Some statements there are controversial, but overall the trends are described well. I used to follow the market through the eyes of BestSellingCars, the information on which was taken from an unclear place. Someone privately provided it to Matt, having access to some inside information on dealers. It reflects only sales of new cars, which are inferior to the import of used cars (at least they used to be inferior). I also got information from fragmentary data from the State Statistics Committee.

    Then I abandoned this idea, even though I have slightly more data, coming into contact with the largest platform for ads for the sale of cars. The latest data on BestSellingCars, by the way, is also for 2022.
    It seems obvious to me that Chinese brands dominate among new cars now, the import of used cars from Korea has grown a lot. The State Customs Committee reports on figures, but not on brands and models, without even specifying where the vehicles are imported from:

    Azerbaijan imported 16,758 vehicles in January-February 2025, which is 26% more than in the same period last year. The total value of vehicles imported into the country was $288,940,130 (an increase of 16.7%). The average price of a car was $17,251
    The largest number of vehicles were passenger cars and other motor vehicles for the carriage of passengers – 15,309 thousand units (an increase of 27.3%) with a total value of almost $256 million (an increase of 17.6%). Average price of a car is $16,717
    Of passenger cars, in particular, 7,577 thousand hybrid cars were imported during the reporting period (an increase of 2.9 times) for the amount of 146 million US dollars (an increase of 1.8 times). Average price of a car is $19,303
    In addition, over 2 months, the number of imported electric cars amounted to 309 units (a decrease of 42.9%) for the amount of 12,839,900 US dollars (a decrease of 1.9 times). Average price of a car is $41,553

    Turbo.az shares information about the most popular car dealerships operating on their site, as well as official dealers. This is not about sales, but about ad views, but it is still very interesting (data for 3 months of 2025):
