Commercial vehicle registrations up again

• Rolling year registrations up 4.2 per cent to 394,261
• Year-to-date registrations up 1.9 per cent to 227,795
• Strong growth trend for trucks continues

Commercial vehicle registrations are remarkably strong,’ said Christopher Macgowan, SMMT chief executive.   ‘Despite mixed fortunes for some sectors the underlying trend is that registrations are on course to set a new annual record. Truck registrations did particularly well, reflecting strong sales at the start of the year.   And encouragingly, order books are good across the wider CV market.’
