The Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) has released vehicle sales data for the month of August 2019, which saw 51,148 units delivered in the month, representing a gain of 295 units – or 0.58% – from the 50,853 units recorded in July.
However the August 2019 figures are 22% lower compared to the same month last year, in which 65,550 units were delivered to customers, a difference of 14,402 units.
This is also reflected in the year-to-date total industry volume (TIV), where 398,335 units were delivered in the first eight months of 2019 compared to 423,615 units in the same period last year – a 6% variance.
For the month of September 2019, the association expects sales volume to be at the same level as it was in August due to the number of public holidays shortening the number of working days.

Vehicle sales go up proved Msia strong economy.
I am worried about Proton sales. 90% of its sales are the Proton X70 aka Boyue.
Proton cars now have difficult sales. This is very sad because as the Boyue aka Proton X70 is CBU from China, all profits go back to China and Geely of China
Proton does not make a sen on the Proton X70 sold in Malaysia
So, how is our beloved Proton going to survive?
I you’re worried about Proton sales, you should be more worried about Perodua airbag quality. Until now they did not issue any recalls despite using the same airbag modules as Toyota. Yet zero recall until today, their cars are moving time bombs.
hihihi…sales figure showing 2 decimal points. If round it up. Hardly even 1%.
The slow sales must be bcoz of haze. Ppl *cough* and cannot go visit showroom kua….
Too many public holidays in Aug, ppl stuck in balik kampung jam. Cannot go visit showroom..
Sales will be good whenever people have to balik kampung to show off their new car to Opah.
Haze happened on September not August, SH.
Tahniah P1!
I hope gov will reduce the tax and let the rakyat use safer and environmental friendlier car
Hahahaha
That’s like hoping Mat Sabu will be next PM
Well, stranger things have happen in this gomen. Dun be surprised
Predict Malaysia vehicle sales data for August 2019 by brand:-
1. Perodua tikus@rambutan – 19500 units
2. Proton kucing@durian – 9127 units
3. Honda – 7500 units
4. Toyota – 5500 units
5. Nissan – 2000 units
Perodua is reducing while Proton is increasing, I can see why P2 trolls are getting more active. Cause of no sales.
don’t be too possess using “kucing” word when you are actually barren cat…hahahahahah..got no ball…yuckssss
Perodua supporters start used tikus, i just follow his logical thinking. What kind of animal can beat numbers of tikus?
