Last year, a total of 272,750 units were sold, down 10% on-year, informed Vietnam Automobile Manufacturers' Association. The sales of passenger cars and commercial and special-use vehicles decreased by 15, 2, and 12%, respectively.
The falling sales were attributed to consumers' waiting for a decrease in automobile prices in early 2018 when the automobile import tariff will slip to 0% as the ASEAN trade in Goods Agreement (ATIGA) took effect in the beginning of 2018, said Tran Ba Duong, Thaco's Board Chairman.

By the end of 2017, Thaco has 158 point of sales across the country, including 69 showrooms for passengers cars, 31 showrooms for truck and bus, along with 58 representative offices. Thaco also has invested a delivery system in Chu Lai open economic zone.
Thaco's consolidated revenue in 2017, including Dai Quang Minh JSC is VND55.2 trillion (US$2.4 billion), with after-tax profit of VND4.9 trillion (US$214.6 million), in which, Thaco's profit reached VND4.7 trillion (US$205.6 million), and that of Dai Quang Minh at VND125 billion (US$5.46 million).
Dung stressed 2018 to be the new chapter in Vientam's automobile industry development phase, for which, Thaco strived to become a multi-sector corporation in the future. To achieve this target, Thaco will initiate the restructuring process, which will be closely related to the chain value.
