Kenya Sees Strong Auto Sector Recovery With 16% Growth in H1 2025, Kenyan National Bureau of Statistics Reports

The country’s vehicle assembly sector rebounded in the first half of 2025, with 6,723 units produced — up from 5,778 a year earlier — reversing two years of decline, according to the bureau's data.

The recovery is backed by duty exemptions on imported parts.

Recent months have seen significant developments in Kenya’s assembly landscape, with CFAO Motors launching Toyota Fortuner production in Mombasa—creating 600 jobs—and Volkswagen restarting local assembly of the Touareg and Tiguan in the city of Thika.
