Making Sense of Singapore's Car Market
Vehicle registration data and COE bidding results, presented in a way that's easier to understand. No spreadsheets required.
Singapore car market data at a glance
Car buying in Singapore shouldn't feel like navigating a maze blindfolded.
Our Mission
Singapore's car market is uniquely complex. Between COE premiums that swing wildly, registration quotas that change monthly, and a maze of vehicle categories, making informed decisions feels nearly impossible.
We built SG Cars Trends to change that. By aggregating official data from the Land Transport Authority and presenting it through intuitive visualisations, we hope to make this data easier to find and explore, rather than scattered across government portals and industry reports.
Whether you're a first-time buyer trying to time your purchase, a dealer analysing market trends, or simply curious about Singapore's automotive landscape—this site might help.
