After Lunar New Year, motorbike prices drop sharply
After Tet is always the "recession" period of car prices, because people's demand tends to decrease, the market during this period is almost frozen, forcing dealers to reduce prices.

Specifically, according to records on the 26th of Lunar New Year, motorbike prices in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City suddenly increased.
