Ethiopia imported a total of 117,032 vehicles in the just concluded fiscal year. The news was disclosed by Ethiopian Transport Authority (ETA).

Commenting on the development, ETA’s Public Relation Head, Yigzaw Dagne, said the number might be higher as there might be cars in different states that are not registered within the national database.

According to Yigzaw the number of cars being imported Ethiopia have been increasing every year. Following last year’s vehicles import, the number of cars in Ethiopia increased to 825,448 from 708,416, he explained.

Nevertheless, the Authority does not have the number of vehicles on the street and off the street.
