Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
More patriotic Msians sapot national carmakers.
Honda Sales is dropping for sure. Now, Honda Malaysia Sales has taken over by Proton Malaysia. Because most people are more awareness of their full safety equipment just like Mazda and Toyota. Instead of buying powerful car without advanced safety features like Honda and BMW. Even Honda Service and Quality in Malaysia is not progressing as well
We all have to remember that Proton success is actually Geely’s success in managing and reviving a Game Over company as well as donating their Game-Changing Boyue to Proton. So don’t be surprised that Proton can achieve such sales in 2019
@Candice Absolutely correct bro Mario! Thanks to Geely China’s management, Proton is now improving by giving us their Chinese rebadge Game Changer and giving us safety features accross the range. This is why Proton is able to Game Honda Over slowly
Psst friend. Eh you forgot to change your name when you replied yourself. Now you kena kantoi dy.
Perodua;
Myvi – 81,966
Axia – 67,267
Bezza – 45,656
Aruz – 30,115
Alza – 15,337
Proton;
Saga – 38,144 (kena hantam bezza)
X70 – 26,331 (kena hantam aruz)
Persona – 21,876 (kena hantam bezza)
Iriz – ??? (No match for axia at all)
Exora – ??? (Easy peazy alza hantam)
No number for iriz and exora. Must be very poor poor sales cos lousy. Well lets find out;
100,821 – 38,144 – 26,331 – 21,876 = 14,470
wowww even alza only enuf to kawtim both iriz n exora.
Must be 7k iriz and 7k exora sold in 2019 alone. Very poor poor poor ehhh.
Without x70 pure cbu from china car, proton only sold 74,490 car in 2019.
On my work visit to Zhejiang, where geely based. Many assembly lines but no human in sight, except for robotic arms that precisely do what it is programmed for.
Proton can benefit from geely, bolstered by many Uitm grads in Intelligent System Engineering and Automotive. Malaysia must refocus our traditional strength on science, technology, robotics, AI, automation
Proton did not meet their targets is Government did not place the 8000 X70s order last few days of December. Ha ha ha until now also need help
Proton 2019 sales target was to surpass 100,000 cars and they sold 100,821 therefore they had met their targets set.
Fake news
I surprised that u tok kok again.
In the end of every month and every year, we will always see Game-Changing Perodua placed in the no.1 spot and Proton below it. This is the prove that rakyat trust in Perodua quality more than Proton since Proton is famous for it’s quality issues. So it’s the time for Proton to wake up and fix their quality issues to become a Game-Changing carmaker
Akhirnya, Perodua menang juga ha ha ha ha

Perodua records 19,800 registrations in December AND Toyota & Honda total of 13,500 units sold in December.
Oops, wrong predict. Hahahahaha
Tats y dun jz live in ur tempurung. Owes get wrong prediction. Come out ans get true fact. U know p2 is the best. Haha.
I thought the sales of the Perodua was good in December 2019, but it was actually worse than your casket.

Paul Tan and team. Do you see what is happening? A username gotten hijacked by an asstwat for his personal agenda. Now do you see why I am stressing the idea to use Disqus as your commenting system? It will remove all these fakery. Pls do something about this disease.
Alan = Axxx
I hope our Game Over Proton fanboys does not come here and claim that Proton sales exceed Perodua. It is clear from the table above that Perodua sales is 2X more than Proton
Dulu cakap besar 4X Proton sales. Ni sekarang pulak 2X saja ke? Kah kah kah fanboi oh fanboi. Tak serik lagi mau tipu diri sendiri. Perodua is Game-Over baby.
don’t u realize you are just back on trackkk????everyone moving forward which sales never dropped, keep increasing….but p1 shift the gear to “R” i think,something wrong with your transmission….hahahahaha..out of track and nowhere..
Shift reverse gear? Are you talking about Perodua? Because obvious you dunno how to do multiplication.
As Proton cars are faster than Perodua cars, it’s only natural that Malaysians go for the safer Peroduas. Even Volvo is copying Peroduas ‘no acceleration / no top speed’ technology now!
Between a Perodua and a Volvo during collision ,
The Perodua will “MASUK LONGKANG FIRST ” AND “ALREADY MASUK KAU KAU”.
VOLVO on the other side is still Safe , Sound and solid as it should be..lookin at the Perodua
That’s the difference for your broken English No acceleration/no top speed tech as I understand..
Top 5 brands only Perodua sales is bad, drop 10.2%. Hahahaha
Lose is lose no point toking now. Hahaha.
Yes, we know Perodua lose. TQVM
It is clear from the table above that Proton sales is 10X more than Lexus. Rakyat believe X70 quality better than NX.
We all have to thank China, Geely and Li Chunrong for saving Game Over Proton. For 30 years, Proton could not give us Game Changers that we want and made Proton slowly going bankrupt but thanks to China’s Game-Changing management, Proton is back on track again
We all are grateful to Daihatsu & Toyota for donating their cars to us for rebadging during the past 30 years and we will continue to rebadge until we close shop. Thank you Daihatsu & Toyota. We only wish you wouldn’t throw us your old and outdated models to do the rebadging. Malu tau, when customers asking why Daihatsu have newer cars and we still rebadging old models.
R.i.p bmw no AEB.
Even BMW have no AEB that similar to Honda, At least BMW standards are doing quite better for servicing and quality than Honda.
Who the SH says Proton lying on sales volume?
Axxx himself is the SH keep lying to others and himself abt sales volume. Wat a shame. Ur saga only 38k sold vs bezza 45k sold in 2019. Last time kataxxx bawah tempurung owes claim saga outsold bezza, claim x70 outsold aruz. But in the end aruz 30k outsold x70 26k, and bezza outsold saga. Eat ur own words ur own SH n ur own SHT. U deserved the title kataxxx bawah tempurung. Muahahahahahaha! Shame on u.
Jelas itulah kataxxx bawah tempurung yang jawab Axxx soalan tu.
Kesian sebab Axxx asyik tinggal dalam tempurung. Kena jelaskan info2 betul utk dia. Kesian dia tau bro.
Due to the Chinese New Year holiday period, Malaysian vehicle sales data, January 2020 by brand will be:-
1. Perodua 14700 units
2. Proton 8900 unis
3. Toyota 6400 units
4. Honda 5800 units
5. Nissan 1700 units
Someone was so proud to shout his company was selling 4X more than his competitor which he keep talking crap and fake news on a daily basis, but now his company has fallen until it is doing just 2X more. Soon it will be lagging behind.
This is what happens when he focused more on negative marketing which instead destroyed their image to potential buyers and drove them to his competitor cars.
If I were him I would be so ashamed as the more I talk bad about the competitor, the more they sold! They didn’t pay me and yet my negative marketing sales help boost their number and not my own.
If I were his boss reading what he did here, I would have fired him like yesterday ady. I hired him to help me up my sales but his stupid plan killed my sales and boosted my competitor car sales.
are you refering to perodua a.k.a “buruk dua”
@ “berukdua”
Well you can see upto 22 Jan, he only got 1 dislike. The reason is our P2 troller isn’t that very smart at catching hints unless you tell it in his face.
So nobody buying audi??
AUDI = RIP (MALAYSIA)
Go toyota go!
It is the first in history no 2 is actually the no 1!
LCR declared 100 821, MAA data only 100 183, only 638 export??PITY to P1. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
for many years, p1 always give the wrong number…always say booking very high and so on…but in the end, only few registered…is this part of P1 strategy??sorry dude…Malaysian are clever enough…we don’t trust liar….always say the particular model is GAME CHANGER…but it was NOT…so AMBITIOUS…in the end…you are the one that GAME OVER!
Perodua even worse at telling lies. For 17 years they had been talking and talking about gamechanger Kenari Hybrid but until today we don’t see the car anywhere. In the end, their gamechanger talk is making them gameover.
