Economic Environment
In 2025, the European Commission forecasts Moldova’s economic growth at 1.6%, revised up from 0.9%, following marginal growth of 0.1% in 2024. Growth is supported by strong private investment, energy support measures cushioning consumption, and funding under the EU’s Reform and Growth Facility, despite net exports continuing to weigh on GDP.
Economic expansion is expected to accelerate to 2.6% in 2026 and reach 3.7% by 2027, driven by robust private consumption and reform-related spending. Inflation, which peaked at 9.1% in early 2025, is projected to fall below 6% by year-end and remain broadly within the central bank’s target range, before rising modestly toward 2027 amid stronger demand. The fiscal deficit is expected to stay near 3.8% of GDP in 2025 but widen to around 5% by 2027, while public debt is projected to increase moderately to 41.1% of GDP.
Brand-wise, this year the leader was again Toyota (+27.7%), followed by Skoda (+15.9%) and Dacia (-9.9%). Kia ranked 4th (+14.5%) while Jetour climbed 4 spots and ranked 5th (+123.8%).
The most sold model in the country was the Toyota RAV4, growing 16.2% and 1 spot. The Kia Sportage followed in 2nd, up 1 spot and 14.5%, while the Dacia Duster ranked 3rd, dropping one spot and 28.2%.
