Perodua Myvi – 60,000 bookings, 28,000 cars delivered

Perodua Myvi – 60,000 bookings, 28,000 cars delivered

Perodua has announced that orders for its new Myvi, which was launched last November, have now reached 60,000 units. The automaker also said it has delivered 28,000 Myvis to date, with all orders made in 2017 for the compact car fulfilled. In January, orders stood at the 48,000 mark, with 20,000 vehicles delivered.

“We thank our customers and the Malaysian public for their strong support of the Myvi, and we will continue to improve the delivery time for our valued customers,” Perodua sales MD Datuk Dr Zahari Husin said. He added that customers who place their bookings now for the new Myvi will most likely receive their cars in time for the Raya holidays.

The automaker estimates its market share for the month of February to surpass 41% with 17,100 vehicles sold against an estimated 41,100-unit total industry volume (TIV) figure. If this is the case, then last month’s performance will eclipse that of January, when the brand recorded its highest ever monthly share of the TIV pie. Sales for the brand last month were made up of 6,500 Myvis, 5,000 Axias, 3,700 Bezzas and 1,900 Alzas.

On a year-on-year basis, Perodua’s sales performance improved by 13.1% to 34,800 units against 30,800 vehicles sold in the first two months of 2017. The automaker stated in January that it is aiming to sell 209,000 units this year, a two percent increase from the 204,900 units sold in 2017.

    Oh no. This 60,000 booking is bad news for P1 bcos P2 is P1 competitor. That will mean eating into P1 sales. Habis lah P1 macam ini.

      P2 is low income segment. P1 is middle income brand so not direct competitor.

      Top 10 Reasons Why Rakyat Prefer Perodua:

      10. Perodua never blame the rakyat except themselves if sales is low.

      9. Proven quality dual-vvti timing chain engine jimat minyak 20km/liter without leaking turbocor whatsoever.

      8. Proven quality auto gearbox far cheaper to maintain than those noisy jerky CVT with twice or triple more expensive gear oil.

      7. Perodua never ask RM billions and billions soft-loans from govt whenever making huge gigantic sinking losses every year.

      6. Perodua never re-test its ANCAP car twice if scored 1-star while giving silly excuse it is for previous and new model.

      5. Perodua never give lifetime warranty if it cannot solve the power window problem.

      4. Perodua will always have high RV (resale value) and low RV (regret value).

      3. Perodua never quietly skip or remove top tether safety device only to be caught pants down by ANCAP later.

      2. Perodua never become overly delusional by promising flying car which is utter nonsense and irrelevant to actual daily needs of rakyat.

      1. Perodua never annoy buyers by keeping signal stalk on right-side, unlike others with left-side signal as if it can export 1 million units to LHD markets.

      Maybe Indonesia also will order more Myvi given the fantastic response from auto reviewers so far. It means even more sales, profits for Perodua until UMW wanna buy most of its shares.

      Now Perodua must get new factory to fulfill the extra demands. So anybody with half empty car factory better sell it off to Perodua.

      So congrats to Perodua! With big sales from Indonesia soon perhaps can achieve 1 million unit annual sales! Go Perodua go!!!

    • Malaysian legend but sadly Myvi/Daihatsu is a dead product overseas. The Japs themselves love Nissan Notes and JDM Fit models. Very few Daihatsu Myvis in Japan.
      I live in Japan now thats why.

    Mediocre car with garbage Japanese brand image along with low status junk.
    The Iriz, outdated Jazz GK5 and cute Picanto are far more superior than all Daihatsu Perodua cars in terms of every damn thing for sure. Apart from Indonesia, this model is forever dead in every way.

      Yup this Daihatsu Myvi will be Japan’s No.1 soon once export process is done.

      Malaysian design become top seller in Japan, memang hebat & kebanggaan negara!!!
