These numbers were decreased from previous year in the same period; 29%, 21% and 30%, respectively as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that had caused the economic slowdown.

On the other hand, TAI forecasts a total domestic sale to be 0.75 million units (a 3% decrease compared to 2020) due to the new attack from COVID-19 pandemic in the country, which will soar household debt.
