The Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) has released new vehicle sales data for the month of July 2017, which saw a total of 48,553 units being shifted, bringing the total industry volume (TIV) up to 333,010 units for the year. However, the number of units sold in July was lower than what was recorded in June (50,275 units) by about 3.4%, or 1,722 units.
Perodua continues to lead the sales chart, notching up 18,920 units in sales, which is an improvement from 17,821 units the month prior. This brings the national carmaker’s year-to-date (YTD) figure up to 118,595 units.
In second place, Honda retains its lead in the non-national car segment despite a dip in sales by 232 units to 8,576 units. The big H is followed by Proton, which saw sales figures drop from 7,225 units in June to just 5,954 units in July.
Meanwhile, Toyota experienced a slight gain in the number of units sold by 213 units, ending July with 5,543 units to take the fourth spot. Other gainers include Ford (651 units) and Lexus (82 units), which saw an improvement of 18.4% and 49.1%, respectively.
On the other hand, brands that encountered a decline in sales include Mercedes-Benz (-38.8%), Mitsubishi (-26.7%), Volkswagen (-31.9%), Kia (-36.3%), Subaru (-52.2%), Volvo (-65.3%) and Mazda (-12.4%).

No discount. No equal quality. No way!!!
what is itik or duck got to do with car blog?
Volvo only 32 units. Seems like worst performance in Malaysia market.
same fake post in Mazda article. Copy pasta
Why your Engrish so Beng one today ah, John?
Paling memalukan is Proton, saw a huge drop in sales.
How can Proton pay their overbloated 12,000 workers when they can only sell about 40k plus cars?
No wonder they are losing RM4 million per day.
The ytd is less than 400 units difference for bum n Mazda…what r u talking about? With the new launch of cx5, lets see the total sales by year end
yes. BMW is 400 units more than Mazda.
ETCM product planners still sleeping. No sign of the facelifted X-Trail on the horizon, they are probably content with the stupid bodykit they launched for it recently. Almera is a no-hope B segmenter, poor Teana is not given a fighting chance and being specced up to date, Sylphy and even the rival Altis is long dead ever since the new Civic came into the picture. At least the X-Trail is pulling in buyers from the Grand Livina crowd, the less we see of that the better.

good job lexus! Moving up!!
good job Toyota! Moving up orso
82 sohais dunno about CAR
What happened to Volvo , 33 units sold cant even pay for the showroom rental.
Big drop for Mercedes again after an increase. Their sales tactics aren’t sustainable.
They rent car now….
big drop in Proton sales…..habis lah! 12,000 workers too much for Proton to feed
Keep calm b4 d storm..
BMW seems to be holdig steady
who wants to buy E250 at RM400k? Few years ago, that was S class price.
Slowly greedy MBM raised their E class higher and higher and higher.
Everyone’s feeling the pinch. Thx Gov.
It’s illogical to think that sales for every month to hit the record. The fact that more cars are being sold this year shows that things are on the road to recovery.
Stop being negative.
I see so many unsold toyotas in second hand dealers. No one wants to buy Toyota these days due to old technology and underpowered engines.
Even though a number of us don’t like UMWT for lousy specs and pricing of their cars, most of us rather see them selling more than geely malaysia because tongsan overlords too slow to rebadge the boyue.
for your info – toyota sales went up and honda went down. what happened?
now that ppl realised they get lousy after sales service from Honda, sales may drop for Honda. mark my words.
PT Team, would they have a Sales Data for Motorbike ?
If Lexus CKD their cars they’ll see an even better figure with a more competitive pricing.
Looks like UMW Toyota Passenger Vehicle sales only increase not more than 100 units last month.
Looks like the Vios Sticker strategy no enough…
let see next month sales after Vios won the 1,2 &3 race at Batu Kawan..
so what? Honda sales dropped by 232 units.
Protong will end 2017 with 70,000 units sales.
So,while waiting for Geely to bring in fresh models,I m very sure,the crony suppliers will bang tables again,for slow /non payment.
So another smaller bailout will be arranged.
P2 should sedekah some to them.
Until Geely cars become ckd under proton brand, with competitive selling price. Then it will took over P2 sales in few years time… Bouye suv is the game changer product for Proton, lets make Proton Good Again….
Geely can’t do a jack lah. You can see how good chinese brand in M’sia.. Chery, Great Wall, Jin Bei,Jia Jia, Bei Bei, Jing Jing, Huan Huan….
I see new Great Wall on the road…but not on this datasheet!!
Looks like the effect of toyota & P2 throwing prices like mad is starting to feel. Time for P1 to oso throw prices to regain market share.
Our minister claimed that our Proton is as good as a BMW or any car sold in Malaysia. Why do U want to Throw prices like mad??! Oops, U are indeed MAD.
He he he. Cheers… to cheaper prices of cars because the year end sales will start… SOON. Tomorrow fuels will Naik or Turun will not matter.
FYI, only bermaz padang jawa give cash rebate. I bought m2 for my wife. Spoke to the sale personnel. All branch not well treated by the HQ (glenmarie). Seems like branch people is willing to sell more cars, but not the glenmarie. Feel sorry for the team.
The rakyat feeling the economy pinch and cars sales going south…..worst yet is the increase petrol prices every week….
Next time, bicycle sales will shoot up…..
Sad for volvo
Why no data for Suzuki??
Have you been in a coma for the past two years? Read the archive here and see what proton a-holes did to suzuki.
Suzuki left the Malaysian market last year. All their showrooms were converted taken over by Proton.

*estimation based on my observations to the neighbors who buying new cars at my apartment’s carpark for the past months.
There’s no question that Honda is doing a good job in offering a full range of cars that suits the major group of car buyers in our country. They are pricing their vehicles to sell too. Unlike brands like Toyota, Mazda and Kia, which have good cars too but only being offered overseas markets. The models they are offering are of Inferior quality compared to their stablemates overseas. What these arrogant car brands need to get up to speed with the Malaysian buyers wants and needs. Malaysian are now more well informed and knowledgeable about cars as information is now available with the tap of a finger. We no longer what to be treated like a dumping ground for old cars and under spec models. We only want the best, and currently in our markets. Only Honda is showing the respect and commitment that Malaysian buyers deserves. As for the rest of the brands out there, good luck and appreciate your efforts in offering great variety of CBU models for the niche market. Cheers!
Ok by all means bring in the Honda pickup, Honda Jade, Honda Shuttle etc etc and even its Hybrid variant with 4wd – which could be under RM99k. Let EPF have a 10% to 20% stake in Honda Malaysia. Mist importantly fit ECU in Honda cars with software for engine oil change base on milage, severity of use, temperature, running hour, idling hour etc etc etc. In USA oil change reminder pop up by ECU is typically only after 7000 to 9000 miles or 1 year. Here Honda SC dump the engine oil & oil filter even if milage is only 6000km while Honda advert that their engine oil is the best for Honda engines. In the car serivce manual for City hybrid looks like engine oil filter change is RM33 and needed only for every 20,000km. RM80 per engine oil change every 10km or 6 month. Ha ha let’s see. I am no Honda basher as I do own Honda cars.
Good job Honda!!
Let’s beat Toyota again for few months to come!!
Yes!!
