Hybrid cars accounted for 54 percent of the total imported cars in 2018, according to the MCGA.
In addition, the country imported 22,000 heavy trucks in 2018, 57 percent more than 2017, mostly due to rising activities in the mining industry in the country, according to the official data released by the MCGA.
