JAKARTA, Investortrust.id — Diversified conglomerate PT Astra International Tbk (ASII) booked wholesale automobile deliveries of 372,721 units during the January–October period of 2026, securing an estimated 49% market share of the country's total automotive sales.
The performance came as overall domestic vehicle sales reached 760,476 units through the first ten months of the year. Astra's distribution volume continued to rely heavily on its volume mainstays, Toyota and Daihatsu, which together generated 345,799 vehicle deliveries over the period.
National Auto Market Outpaces Conglomerate Growth
Head of Media Relations Division at Astra Ahmad Muhibbuddin noted that while the group maintained healthy volumes, broad industry demand accelerated at a faster pace during the ten-month timeframe. National automotive wholesale deliveries increased 19.7% year-on-year compared to the corresponding period in 2025, whereas Astra’s group deliveries advanced by approximately 12%.
"Through October 2026, national car sales increased 19.7%, while Astra car sales grew around 12% compared to the January–October period last year," Ahmad stated in an official release on Wednesday.
Across brand portfolios, Toyota and luxury affiliate Lexus led group deliveries with a combined 222,585 units between January and October. Daihatsu followed with 123,214 units. In commercial transport and logistics fleets, Isuzu contributed 26,094 vehicle sales through October, while heavy-duty brand UD Trucks added 828 units.
Sequential Expansion Across Core Brands
On a monthly basis, the conglomerate registered steady sequential momentum entering the final quarter of the year. Astra delivered 37,734 vehicles in October 2026, marking a 2.8% increase from 36,723 units recorded in September.
Toyota and Lexus remained the primary volume contributors in October with 23,712 units sold, followed by Daihatsu with 10,772 units, Isuzu with 3,119 units, and UD Trucks with 131 units.
Ahmad expressed confidence that group automotive distribution will maintain positive momentum alongside broader structural growth in the domestic automotive sector. "Going forward, we hope Astra's car sales performance will continue to rise in line with our efforts to provide the best products and services relevant to consumer needs," he concluded.
