In continuing the PT Talks video series, Hafriz Shah and Matthew Tong discuss the three hottest automotive topics in the past week. The Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) recently released the collective sales results for Q1 2018, which shows Perodua achieving a 41.1% market share – an all-time high for the Malaysian automaker.
The stats reveal Proton’s diminishing market share, while a few premium car brands recorded an increase in sales. Also part of the discussion are Borgward’s maiden debut in ASEAN, as well as the new G20 BMW 3 Series rendering.
Will Borgward be off to a good start, considering that a local production facility will be established for the region? And will the new BMW 3 Series come with a fresh new dose of the desirability factor that Mercedes-Benz is exploiting so well with its crop of cars? Find out what we think in the video above.
As usual, let us know what you think in the comments section below. In fact, chime in – what do you think we should talk about in our next episode? Until next time, enjoy watching this one.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Boggo if price 50k can sell…over…no need bring come here..
So shy after reading this line…..”The stats reveal Proton’s diminishing market share”
Also, the MAA’s comment…”National automaker Proton also suffered a slump in overall numbers, with 12,843 units recorded in Q1 this year. That’s 6,533 units less than the year before, representing a 33.72% drop in volume. Its market share also dropped from 13.8% to 9.5% for the first quarter”
This is a disgrace. A bigger disgrace is, sales from 200,000 in 2009 can fall to 50,000 this year. And Proton predicts sales by 2020 will be 200,00 back again.
That is just 1 year 6 months more. How can it jump from 50,000 to 200,000????

Hahaha… It’s Proton that’s having waterfall sales, not Toyota! Shame on u john for spreading fake news
Toyota depends on commercial vehicles , look at passenger vehicles, pipu already rate vios altis Camry as junks
does not look like Toyota have waterfall sales. Toyota seems to be improving.
And Toyota UMW owns Perodua. They are having a great time with sales.
Looks like Proton got waterfall sales
Myvi alone in 2 months is the SAME as PRoton’s entire range of cars for 1 whole year.
So malu.
Honda and P2 no need to depend on commercial vehicles to beat P1. Stop using commercial vehicles as excuse! Proton is rubbish junk that nobody wants, just like BN. Period
Proton will soon be private. Mahathir was against Geely taking over.
Pity, cybertroopers also will be out of job.
Basher sudah habis modal, you said about P2? Pipu buy coz it is cheap. Honda? Pipu buy coz it is non national that is times better than junk Toyota.
Stop blaming the world after you were caught 2 days ago with your comment at 1300 thumbs up.
We are fed up with your fake news john and the many times you have been caught…even writers are fed up of you

zulfahmi dropping out of Moto 2 post, john’s comment has 1600 likes. I think we know who the culprit thumbs up his own post is
Please stop blowing up the heads of our beloved PT heroes! Photo makes this classy blog looks like cheap Hong Kong tabloid
Pls add VW Tiguan n Subaru Forester in your SUV incoming review
Hope the fake john does not come here and downvote everybody and create many dupes in support of dying Proton
Why only John? If basher downvote or upvote you dun mind pulak
BX5 and BX7 exterior designs are more elegant than many SUVs.
Youngsters like fanciful futuristic designs.
Oh wai proton?! Please not campro & punch cvt!
Yes please because jepunis car always left far behind, it feels like a snail to P1
But still can overtake P1 like overtaking the Gov
Jepunis car is not worthy, you have to modifiy gao gao to make it good
Since Haval H6 will not be coming to Malaysia, may consider Borgward. Shall wait to test drive it.
The interior of the new 3 series just doesnt look right to me. It’s like BMW made a last minute attempt to improve it. I hope next yrs 4 series will be better inside.. hopefully my next car.
Definite not you
Talk about reducing car prices by 50%
Perodua is like PH
Proton is UMNO.
You know what i mean..
Hmm… Not a guy that watches two blokes sitting on a sofa talking about cars… Podcast while driving will be best! Please make a podcast of this!
