CMV360 Says

The slight decline in VECV's sales in October 2024 reflects some challenges in the commercial vehicle market. While domestic sales dropped, the strong growth in exports, especially in the heavy-duty segment, shows potential in international markets. This shift could be a good sign for VECV, indicating that focusing on exports might help balance out domestic sales fluctuations in the future.
