If you are walking around the streets of Windhoek, you will immediately notice that you are surrounded by Toyota braded vehicles. Toyota is the most popular brand in Namibia and it dominates the car markets in the country (even if Volkswagen isn't really far!).The core reasons for the dominance of Toyota in the Namibian market are the easily availability and cheap price of spare parts as well as the availability of garages that handle minor servicing and maintenance, paint as well as heavy maintenance of those vehicles.
Recently, the models Toyota Corolla and Volswagen Polo are the most widely wanted in the market. But, models such as Toyota Runx and Toyota Vitz and Volkswagen Beetle are very popular due to their lower price and low fuel consumption; their small size also makes them easy for parking.
Hilux and 4Runner are among the top popular higher cost Toyota brands in Windhoek, as well as BMW 3 series, Mercedes-Benz C-class, Volkswagen Golf and latest models of other brands.
Brands such as Hyundai, Audi, Mazda and Chevrolet etc. also have significant share in the Namibian market. However, due to their expensive price, high price of spare parts, uneasy access to garages of some of these brands, relatively higher fuel consumption, re-sale value, etc. they are less popular.
In recent years, many people are now turning into buying pickup trucks. Toyota, Ford, and Nissan are among the most popular pickup trucks in the market.
