In detail, cars accounted for the largest proportion throughout the period, starting at 48,000 (64%) to 53,000 (56%) in the first decade. However, this was followed by moderate drop in the proportion, comprising 53% (54,000) in 2016.

As for trucks and motorbikes, both showed an upward trend over the period. 14,900 (20%) motorbikes were exported in 1996, slightly ahead of trucks, at 12,000 (16%).

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing a clear overview and highlighting the main trends and comparisons. The structure is logical, with a distinct introduction, overview, and detailed body paragraphs. To improve, ensure that the data presentation is consistent; for example, when mentioning numbers and percentages, try to maintain a uniform way of presenting them to enhance readability. Additionally, be careful with minor phrasing issues, such as 'starting at 48,000 (64%) to 53,000 (56%)', which would be more grammatically correct as 'starting at 48,000 (64%) and reaching 53,000 (56%)'.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized and easy to follow. The use of an overview paragraph provides a clear summary of the main trends, which is essential for a high score. Cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'By contrast', 'In detail', and 'As for' are used effectively to guide the reader through the comparison. To reach a band 9, ensure that the transition between the specific data points in the body paragraphs is even more seamless, perhaps by varying the way sentences are linked to avoid a slightly repetitive structure.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate and varied, with good use of terms like 'accounted for', 'proportion', 'upward trend', and 'comprising'. You successfully avoided repeating the same words too often. To improve, you could incorporate more sophisticated synonyms for 'increase' (e.g., 'climbed', 'rose steadily', 'experienced an upward trajectory') and 'decrease' (e.g., 'diminished', 'contracted') to demonstrate even greater lexical flexibility.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of structures, including complex sentences and various tense usages. However, there are minor grammatical slips that prevent a higher score, such as the phrasing 'starting at 48,000 (64%) to 53,000 (56%)' (which should be 'starting at... and reaching...') and the missing article in 'followed by moderate drop'. Pay close attention to prepositional usage and article placement to ensure full accuracy throughout the text.
