After sales picked up in March, vehicle sales in the country dipped again last month, though the drop was relatively small. A total of 47,089 vehicles were registered last month, and this represented a decrease of 2,896 units, or 5.8%, that that which was managed in March.
Here’s a quick breakdown of how most brands performed in April. It was a mixed bag of results, with five of the top 10 registering a drop in sales. The quintet were market leader Perodua (-3.9%), second-placed Honda (-14.8%), Proton (-4.9%), Nissan (-21.5%) and Mitsubishi (-35.8%).
Elsewhere, Ford (-2.6%) and Volkswagen (-25.0%) also had a softer month. Gainers included Toyota (+7.0%), Kia (+21.2%), MINI (+37.5%), Renault (+61.0%).
Most of the brands in the premium segment had a good April, the gainers list including Mercedes-Benz (+4.9%), BMW (+4.1%), Volvo (+30.5%) and Audi (+46.7%). Porsche sold exactly the same number of cars it did in March, and Lexus sold just one car less than it did the month before.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Jaguar sales also went up by 200% from 3 to 9 this month =P
There maybe a new Government but Proton workers still remain the same. Same old deadlogs, lazy to the core and not willing to market their cars.
Go to any mall, you always see different brands of cars promoting their cars in the middle concourse. Salesman stand whole day trying to sell their cars.
But I have never seen Proton marketing their cars in malls. Even with so low sales, they expect people to walk into their showrooms
Still wanna bash P1. But Bapak P1 is no back. Tremble with fear for your money will be put to gud used and make P1 great again!
i prefers my money will be put to gud used and made 1mdb greater again!
1MDB to enrich the poor. Bapak 1MDB will make MY great again! Tremble with fear for your money will be put to gud used and make Rosmah great again!
“Bapak P1 is no back”
Wtf are u talking about? Drink too much koolaid kah? Now Proton waterfall sales and john is still dreaming and praising P1. Bapak P1 dun care about ur junk Proton anymore, will let it rot in scrapyard.
Tun M pictured with Pilot pen. Pilot pen sales shot through the roof.
Tun M pictured with Berocca supplements. Berocca mostly sold out at all pharmacies.
Tun M pictures with Bata sandals. Bata sandals now in limited quantity even before Bata Malaysia shamelessly promoted the sandals.
Tun M video recorded driving a Baoteng Perdana. Baoteng sales still like poop, going down and down. Proof even Tun M couldn’t save a failure of a brand.
In other news, rumours are the resale values of previous generation Toyota Vellfire models in white have plummeted after constantly being pictured carrying the nation’s number one thief, the ex-PM.
Audi u really irrelevant, you might be a glorify vw, but your sales is really too far behind your competitor
No prizes for guessing Audi dealer in MY
Audi sales is so bad nowadays
It is fast becoming a dying brand in Malaysia soon
Each day when I look into my Audi A4 car makes me beginning to feel fed up and want to get rid of it soonest possible .
Most buyer prefer much cheaper recondition Audi.
So suddenly Audi had become a cheap car image like VW.
Anyway Audi had always been a less desirable brand in Malaysia.
Lol
Not surprise to see many of these type of cheaper AUDIs will be using TOW TRUCKS daily due to its electronic and overheating problems.
Looks like Proton will have a hard time selling 72,000 units this year judging from the 1st 4 months sales of 16,842 units only.
Wow! P2 garnered 49% popularity
75507 (P2) vs 73812 (P1 + T(JPN) + H(JPN) + N(JPN)) Bravo P2. Even 1st,2nd,3rd and 4th runner up also no match with P2. No wonder UMW wanna take over P2 share.
Protong in big big trouble.without boyue,it can hardly touch 50000units by Christmas.might as well be an AP distributor for exotic cars like Naza.Just pathetic,the pace of reforms at P1.Upgrade or not,makes no difference,as long as Campur engine n punch CVT are offered.Buyers just bolted to buy other brands.
Protong overtaken by Toyota, w/out much effort
No effort from passenger cars coz noone buys toyota
Proton can do the same by bringing back bicycle division also. Kan?
Lousy proton. From monthly sales of 8k in 2015 to 7k in 2016 to 5-6k in 2017 and now below 4k in 2018. Now dropped to 4th place despite being the cheapest and most low cost in Malaysia.
P2 is the cheapest deswai no.1
The cheapest car sold by P2 is Axia. If we minus Axia, Still sales @ 15k units. Where is P1?
Still wanna bash P1. But Bapak P1 is now back. Tremble with fear for your money will be put to gud used and make P1 great again!
Proton waterfall sales! All this thank to john who relentlessly ‘promoting’ P1. Bapak P1 would be proud of u, kipidap.
Even Porsche sell more car than Audi. GGWP Audi
Who wanna buy junk campro vvt & punch cvt? People prefer dual vvti now
Dual vvti cannot do double fuel saving, why bother?
