Perodua today issued a statement saying that its operations have been impacted by the earthquake and tsunami which hit Japan on March 11.
It said in its statement that operations are affected and that it was currently assessing the situation to understand better the impact on its operations. Based on the latest information, the inventories at Perodua’s plant and its vendors are sufficient till May production, with some adjustments.
The company, working very closely with Daihatsu as well as its local vendors, is working towards having a better and clearer picture of the problems and taking appropriate countermeasures.
How much all this has affected the new Myvi’s arrival timeline – which is supposed to be coming sometime this month – is unknown, but the issuance of the statement might indicate that there could possibly be some delay on the cards.

AI-generated Summary ✨
The comments reflect concern that the Japanese earthquake is delaying the production and launch of the new Perodua Myvi, mainly due to affected engine control units (ECUs) and paint supplies. Some comments express skepticism about Perodua’s reliance on Japanese parts and local content, suggesting that many components are still imported. There’s discussion about the impact on other automakers and parts suppliers, including Proton and international brands like Mitsubishi and Honda. Several comments criticise Perodua’s dependence on Japan and question the true local manufacturing content. Amidst the negative impact quoted, some commenters support Perodua and hope for better market positioning, while others see this as an opportunity for Proton to overtake Perodua’s sales. Overall, sentiments are mixed but mostly focus on the supply chain disruptions caused by the earthquake.
