Trinidad and Tobago consists of two islands i-e Trinidad Island and Tobago Island. Its official name is Republic of Trinidad and Tobago. In 1962 these twin islands got independence from United Kingdom. These two islands are rich with petroleum resources and that’s the main reason they are categorized as the wealthiest islands in whole Caribbean. In Trinidad and Tobago, most of the cars which are used for personal use are imported from Japan.
Almost 80% of the cars which are currently being used in Trinidad and Tobago are used Japanese vehicles. People of these two islands are fond of driving Japanese cars. That is why Trinidad and Tobago has emerged as an important market for Japanese used car dealers. These cars are popular in this country because of their reliability, comfort and performance at a very low price. The cars which are imported from other countries are very expensive and also have to visit car mechanic more often. Also cars from Japan are easily shipped to Trinidad and Tobago because of Port of Spain which is easily accessible by ships.
It has also become very easy to import Japanese used cars in Trinidad and Tobago because of lenient Government policies regarding import of used cars. Now the government has allowed importing 6 years old car into the country rather than importing a 4 year old car. This has put a great impact on the import of Japanese used cars. People are now more attracted towards these cars and import of these cars has increased remarkably. The government of Trinidad and Tobago encourages the import of Japanese used cars and vehicles because these cars are environment friendly and emits less harmful gases in the atmosphere.
Almost all kind of vehicles are imported from Japan including hatchbacks, Sedan, minivans, SUVs’ and more. Nissan and Toyota are very popular in this country. Pickup trucks of Nissan like Navar and Frontier are very famous among Trinidadians. Also Toyota Corolla is very famous on these islands. Others cars like Mazda, Mitsubishi, Suzuki and Honda are also imported but Nissan and Toyota have more market share than remaining cars. Pickup trucks are famous because of the landscape of this country. Trinidad and Tobago mostly consists of hills and mountains so these trucks give best performance on the roads of Trinidad and Tobago.
If we analyze the recent trends, then we will come to know that in the upcoming years the import of used cars in Trinidad and Tobago will surely boost up. As 6 year old cars are now allowed in Trinidad and Tobago so more people would like to buy a Trinidad cars for sale because now they have more variety of cars to select from and also a model which is manufactured six years ago is low priced than a model which is manufactured four years ago. So Japanese used car dealers have a great opportunity to capture this market and flourish there business in this part of the world.
