Chery is up to #4 in Singapore in May.

It’s a stable result for the Singaporean new car market in May at +0.5% year-on-year to 4,478 units. This brings the year-to-date tally to 22,353, up 15.7% over the same period in 2025. BYD (+41.6%) continues to dominate at 26.1% share, almost double the struggling #2 Toyota (-11.2%) at 13.2%. Tesla (-12.6%) is back up five spots on April to #3 but drops year-on-year. It is followed by a surging Chery (+453.2%), breaking into the Top 5 for the first time at #4, with Mercedes (-43.3%) and BMW (-51.3%) completely cratering below.
