Car sales grew by nearly a quarter in the first two months of the year on rising demand for station wagons despite cost of used vehicles rising by at least Sh100,000 per unit.

Official data indicates that Kenyans bought 13,598 new and second-hand vehicles between January and February, up from 10,981 units in a similar period a year earlier.
