COMPANY
BCAS: 7M25 - 4W & 2W Sales

- Astra recorded sales of 31,772 units in July 2025 (-27.4% yoy and +8.2% mom). Astra's sales declined more sharply year-on-year compared to its peers, with the industry average being -18.4% yoy and +4.8% mom. Astra's market share increased to 52.5% in July 2025 (compared to 50.8% in June 2025).
- Wuling and Hyundai showed the largest MoM increases of 91% and 27%, respectively; while Chery and BYD+Denza experienced declines. We believe this non-Astra mixed performance is primarily due to differences in import timing, production, and inventory strategies of each brand.
- Well-received by the Indonesian market, the top 3 Chinese brands accumulated a 10.1% market share in 7M25. Despite slowing 4W vehicle sales, Chery and BYD+Denza sales showed strong yoy growth.
- 7M25 fell 10% yoy, accounting for 48-58% of Gaikindo's target of 750-900k sales in 2025. Historically, 4W sales in the second half are stronger than the first half. We expect 4W sales to recover to the 65-70k/month in the coming months
