Brand image is recognized as a crucial factor that shapes consumer perceptions and plays a key role in product selection, particularly in the highly competitive commercial vehicle sector. The research adopts a quantitative approach with an associative method. Data were collected through questionnaires distributed to 75 respondents who are actual or potential consumers of UD Trucks in the Bandung area. The research instruments were tested for validity and reliability, and the data were analyzed using simple linear regression assisted by the latest version of SPSS software. The results show that brand image has a positive and significant effect on consumer purchasing decisions. All questionnaire items are declared valid with r-count values greater than the r-table, and reliable with Cronbach’s Alpha values exceeding 0.6. The normality test confirms that the data are normally distributed, while the linearity test shows a linear relationship between brand image and purchasing decisions. The dominant dimensions of brand image influencing purchasing decisions include brand identity, brand personality, brand association, and brand attitude and behavior. The study concludes that strengthening brand image increases consumers’ tendency to make purchasing decisions. Therefore, the company is advised to enhance its brand identity strategy and after-sales services to improve competitiveness in the commercial vehicle market.
