Will the Romanian new-car market’s rollercoaster ride continue? Ulmis Horchidan, Autovista Group’s head of valuations for Romania, Hungary, Slovenia, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic speaks with Autovista24 editor Tom Geggus in a new podcast. Romania’s new-car market has experienced a rollercoaster ride so far this year. The first quarter saw a total of 33,228 units registered. This marked a decline of 10.1% compared to the 36,966 units recorded at the same point in 2023. However, this decline was quickly turned around in the second quarter with a sales boom. Between April and June, Romania recorded 50,277 new car deliveries, up by 37% compared with the same period last year. This explosive growth was mainly driven by the government’s purchase incentive scheme. Then in the third quarter, the market dropped again. A total of 32,004 new cars were sold between July and September. This equated to a drop of 13.5% from the 37,006 units registered in the third quarter of 2023. However, this dip could be temporary as the incentive programme comes back into play. Subscribe to the Autovista24 podcast and listen to previous episodes on Spotify, Apple and Amazon Music.

How have provisional tariffs on battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) made in China impacted European electric vehicle (EV) forecasts? Autovista24 editor Tom Geggus speaks with Neil King, head of forecasting at EV Volumes (part of J.D. Power), in a new podcast episode.
