Perodua secured a hat-trick of awards at the recent 2017 Frost & Sullivan Malaysia Excellence Awards, led by the popular Bezza. The company’s first-ever sedan not only secured the title of 2017 Car of the Year by the market research and consulting firm, but also the Debut Car of the Year award.
The Car of the Year award winner is based on a model’s sales volume, sales growth, market share in its segment and overall impact to the total industry volume.
Launched in July 2016, the Bezza managed to top the Trending Car Models list in Google’s “Year in Search” 2016. It also became the best-selling sedan for the first quarter of 2017 with over 15,900 units sold. So far, Perodua has delivered about 50,900 units of the Bezza since it was first introduced.
The Axia wasn’t left out either, as it was named the 2017 Value-for-Money (1.3L & Below Category ) Car of the Year. “We are overwhelmed with this recognition for the Perodua Bezza and the Axia. The 2017 Frost & Sullivan’s Malaysia Car of the Year Award for the Bezza is an endorsement towards our first ever full upper body designed model,” said Perodua president and CEO, Datuk Aminar Rashid Salleh.
Just a few days ago, Perodua announced a series of aesthetic updates for the 2017MY Bezza, which affected both the exterior and interior of the sedan.
“We thank Frost & Sullivan for their dedication and for being impartial in their judging process. We would also like to thank all Malaysians for their support and trust they have given to Perodua. We will further improve our processes to further delight you; because at Perodua; you matter most,” Datuk Aminar said.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
How can it secure Best Car when it has no VSC? In Europe, it will totally fail. It would disqualify for NCAP also
Looks like Frost got some ang pau.
dont give awards lah when we still practise price settings. kia cannot sell the picanto at 30k. toyota cannot sell vios at 55k.
toyota vios 55k + excise tax 33k = 88K
U can always buy Saga
Buy Myvi! Bes giler
This is fake and false. I have always said, this car got no testing also can go into market.
Better buy our Proton. Why Proton not doing well because of bodoh Malaysians never support the company.
Come on guys, Proton is our national car. Support it….oh wai!
I still cannot understand how Perodua can sell 200,000 cars and Proton sells only 72,000 cars with 90% ordered by Bomba, PDRM, TUDM, TLDM, Kastam, Immigresen etc etc etc
Note – this one model will probably sell more than the entire Proton model range this year. Draw your own conclusions.
Pipu buy p2 because it is cheap not because it is good
It’s no longer our national car, Proton is a private entity now.
Proton apa jadi? Still asking Rm1.8 billion? Malu betul. Better close shop la
if tutup then all Proton workers got no job….oh wai!
Pity them and their families
They can move to Perodua….. how to blindly support a company that always asking for money n lost money billions each yea? syok sendiri volvo or bmw of asia…… as long as u see brand ” Proton” is a no no no….. always syok sendiri how good in corner… nobody care when is still a proton…..
Give the retrenched workers handout of 1.8b. make it a yearly payout of 1.8b for the next 20 years. its better to pay them not to produce the cars. Do the same with perodua. Less drivers will die driving other cars.
It is very clear frost n Sullivan has NOT sat at the back seats of both bezza n axia….Belakang sakit loh
What..joking issit..it has to be honda brv..pride of the nation..rakyat sayang brv…and more importantly low cost vehicle for third wotkd countries…pls la brv should hv won the award…all Malaysians say so…
Buy Saga from me and i can even gip u an award:
Patriotic Award
It is not a bad car overall. Good value for money
The Car of the Year award winner is based on a model’s sales volume, sales growth, market share in its segment and overall impact to the total industry volume.
what an AWARD !!!!!!
JOKE OF THE YEAR
PS: DONT CREATE AN AWARD FOR MARKETING PURPOSE !
No suprise, coz no competitor. Saga? No one aware of its existance.
Hebat 1st sedan Perodua !!!
They must be living in cave since 1987
saga is the best car you can buy in Malaysia! oh wai!
I-Say-Man Bezza/P2, Why must U win the Frost & Sullivan M’sia 2017 Car of the Year & Debut Car of the Year awards ?! U are making P1 & john difficult 2 Cari Makan lah like that. hehehe.
Don’t have award for receiving most soft loans from government?
Betui, betui. P1 should be awarded ‘Car Manufacturer of the Year’ for collecting most money from the G
Look at Perodua, doing so well. Started 10 years after Proton. And yet, Proton is bankrupt and Perodua is doing so well.
How is this so?
Don’t forget, gomen never order polis or bomba or tentera cars from Perodua. But gomen order so much from Proton. And yet Proton can be in debt.
P1 is in debt is becoz of pipu like u, not proud of our own national car
P1 are in debts bcos every car that P1 make they loose 20,000 ringgit. Multiply 20,000 by 72,000 cars sold in 2016 = 1.44 billion ringgit. That is pretty close to what has been the loss reported.
Syabas Si Tongek!!
Mana boleh? This car is celup Jepunis. Buy Saga from me better. Our Saga veri handsome and somemore comes with specs like Bezza. All specs except Premium is moving deathtrap. Buyers buy from me get special package
Car of the year meh?
Good for perodua owner (especially myvi and axia) , now they became more confused whether they are driving a super car or a budget family car on the road. With this award u now can drive fast-fast and stay on right lane on the highway (remember to high beamed those slow bastard).
congrats!!!!!!
whattt….
Alamak…of course la will sel coz in monopoly market wats to ne proud of..F&S pls dunt tink everybody so easily fooled
Obviously looks isn’t the criteria here…
Congrats Perodua. By the way, you should educate your buyers that the cars they buy will work well and safely if it is driven within the parameters of a town runabout and not if it is handled like a fire-breathing V-12 monster by Lewis Hamilton wannabes. Idjits who thrash Axias and Bezzas would never make it safely anywhere even if you plaster the cars with VSC and airbags. Idjits.
Seriously imagine without P1 and P2 existance .. our lovely nation would have been achieve beyond better than this whatsoever award..agree?
JPJ should give an award for the safest car too!
No other sedan in Malaysia has less hp (little hp = little speed = little accidents)
Seriously… how can this car win that award? It’s like this car ever test in overseas. I mean like in Europe or other nation.
just saw bezza with the new tonggek cover, ok a bit but still tonggek ma
the old persona also received this award. absolute nonsense.the car has terrible brakes. nearly killed me. just ask any taxi guy and see. death machines get awards here.
Bezza has only half the hp of the old Persona, so even two drum brakes at the front would be safe enough.
why Civic no win? it’s a bigger car, more powerful, more features, better brand value and image, more comfortable….
everything also win liao…. it must be a civic to win!
Bugatti Veyron would win according to u
relax bro, got chance wan for civic.
anyway congrats to perodua.
