    Analyst Opinion

    The Small Cars market in Fiji has been experiencing steady growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences, trends in the market, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. Customer preferences in Fiji have shifted towards smaller, more fuel-efficient cars in recent years.

    This is partly due to rising fuel prices and a growing awareness of the environmental impact of cars. Customers are now looking for vehicles that are not only affordable but also offer good fuel economy and low emissions. As a result, small cars have become increasingly popular in Fiji.

    Trends in the market also contribute to the growth of the Small Cars market in Fiji. Manufacturers have recognized the demand for small cars and have introduced a wide range of models to cater to different customer needs. These models often come with advanced features and technologies, making them attractive to a wider range of customers.

    Additionally, the availability of financing options and affordable pricing have made small cars more accessible to the general population. Local special circumstances in Fiji have also played a role in the growth of the Small Cars market. The country's infrastructure, such as narrow roads and limited parking spaces, makes smaller cars more practical and convenient for everyday use.

    Moreover, the compact size of small cars makes them easier to maneuver in congested urban areas, which is a common feature in Fiji's cities. Underlying macroeconomic factors have also contributed to the growth of the Small Cars market in Fiji. The country's economy has been steadily growing, leading to an increase in disposable income and a higher standard of living.

    As a result, more people are able to afford cars, and small cars are often the preferred choice due to their affordability and lower running costs. In conclusion, the Small Cars market in Fiji is experiencing growth due to changing customer preferences, trends in the market, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. Customers are increasingly opting for smaller, more fuel-efficient cars, and manufacturers have responded by introducing a wide range of models.

    The local infrastructure and macroeconomic factors have also contributed to the growth of the market. Overall, the Small Cars market in Fiji is expected to continue its upward trajectory in the coming years.

    The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on the sales of new passenger cars. Data on the specifications of the sold vehicles is based on the base models of the respective makes.

    Modeling approach:

    Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use company reports and websites, vehicle registries, car dealers, and environment agencies among other sources. In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP and car stock per capita. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

    Forecasts:

    In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, we use the ARIMA model for the Passenger Cars market. The main drivers are GDP per capita and consumer spending per capita.

    Additional notes:

    The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year. In some cases, the data is updated on an ad hoc basis (e.g., when new, relevant data has been released or significant changes within the market have an impact on the projected development).
