It’s strange on why Great Wall was excluded from the list. They sold some numbers of their affordable M4.
Later Proton and Perodua out of word if being ask about the price their listed… even a foreign brand can sell at that affordable price BUT why local product can’t?
Great Wall (Go Auto) is non-member of MAA hence they’re not reporting nor obligated to report their figures to MAA. Well, when we talked about the true numbers… JPJ registration data would be the most accurate. There are also portion of grey imports recon car that also registered as new in JPJ record. We can’t really guage the vehicle population numbers in Malaysia since we did not know the used car numbers… special vehicles such as crane, steamrollers, etc. being recorded. That’s exclude lori hantu and clones… whatever numbers that MAA published is NOT complete and can only be regarded as guideline.
I am interested to know which 2 cars did Naza manage to sell last year :D
I am interested to see macai-macai Proton in full denial syndrome mode.

If without “taxes protection” wonder how much Proton sales would be??? just wondering…
I would put it at 2. Two. Only Kambing and Aero likely to buy.
They pay same tax n they not even getting EEV tax advantage.
Import car still selling higher price
The breakdown makes for a great read. Take out commercial vehicles and Honda beat Toyota by 30,000 units! Amazing achievement, just goes to show how good quality and pricing can win in a competitive market.
Another big winner: Mercedes. Leaps and bounds, head and shoulders, above Audi and BMW. Keep it up!
Plotong – just laugh la… ha ha ha ha ha…
same for the kimchis, even VW with scandals and DSG issues is selling more than them.
Mercedes sales is around the same with both Hyundai + Kia for the whole year.
Lexus is a division of Toyota. Meaning if Toyota + Lexus sales… It did beat Honda sales.
Anyway, so much celebration for HONDA in Malaysia. Because it is nowhere near Toyota. Not in Japan. Or Thailand. Or Indonesia. Or USA. Or the world.
Only Malaysia.
Generally Toyota produces good cars and obviously it sells well all over the world but in Malaysia the greedy UMW short change us with lesser safety features,dated gearbox and engines using Malaysia as a dumping ground and yeah at a premium price too.
When you still have 90K+ ppl supporting them in 2015, do you think they even bother to change their strategy?
Why cannot see sales by individual models??? MyCC tinks it is illegal…brilliant MyCC they should become scientist imagine wat they can do
Unless I’m blind I don’t see Jeep in the list…?
Will the two idiots that bought Naza please stand up!
I would really like to know what model… and both were bought just last November…
Better Toyota and Honda… sell at Low Yatt… The sale will be boooom
