Perodua has, unsurprisingly, maintained its position as market leader despite a rather turbulent year. It sold a grand total of 190,291 vehicles in 2021, which is a 13.6% drop from the 220,154 units recorded in 2020. As expected, the Axia, Bezza and Myvi make up the lion’s share of its total sales, but sales for the Aruz and Ativa were commendably strong as well.
The Ativa, which was only launched in March 2021, found 26,847 new homes. By comparison, the full year sales for the Proton X50 stood at 28,774 units, thus making it the best-selling SUV for 2021. The Ativa might just claim that crown in 2022, but we’ll see.
Meanwhile, P2 delivered 15,313 units of the Aruz. The seven-seater was given a slight update in May last year, featuring the new Passion Red metallic paint, as well as integrated side steps and auto door lock. Combined, the Ativa and Aruz make up 22% of Perodua’s total sales volume.
Moving forward, Perodua has forecasted a sales target of 240,000 vehicles for 2022, but this will be reviewed later this month. Perodua president and CEO Datuk Zainal Abidin Ahmad said: “In December, we forecasted a 240,000 sales target for 2022, however, we will likely review that figure later this month as we are taking into account the latest developments and events into consideration.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Last time during Aruz launch, a bunch of ‘P2 salesman’ said that Aruz will tapao the sales of the X70. 2 years later, during the launch of the Ativa, that same bunch of ‘P2 salesman’, again, said that Ativa will tapao the sales of the X50. Funny, because the table have been flipped over.
Ativa just launched last year March. If Ativa launched in January, X50 will be beaten by Ativa.
You’re right.. but beaten in volume only lo.. and probably just by few hundreds.
Aruz Ativa sales as fantastic as Nautica
Now they come here and flip tables when truth hurts. lol
If any model should be blamed for thwarting Aruz sales, it’s their own sister model the Toyota Rush. I’m very curious as to why there are still many people opt to buy, what is essentially the same car with very small differences and even assembled from the same plant, but with almost 20k in price hike.
“It sold a grand total of 190,291 vehicles in 2021, which is a 29.8% drop from the 220,154 units recorded in 2020″…. that should represent a 13.6% drop, not 29.8%… correct me if I’m wrong..
Whether losing thirteen percent or thirty percent is a huge hit to perodua. They can spin it all they want, fact is they are losing chunks of marketshare.
Yet, perodua is one of the best selling brands. Proton also selling well. Let’s make Perodua and proton even better
Without pandemic situation, Perodua will boost more market shares/sales
40% of Protons sold are from higher end cars.
80% of Peroduas sold are from the lower end cars.
Without pandemic situation, Proton sales of higher range cars would be more and Perodua sales of lower segments would be less. Perodua survived thanks to pandemic.
Without pandemic situation, all those brands who sold more in 2021 and especially who had the best sales in 2021 since a decade ago also got boost. Might even become the best year of sales ever in Malaysia for that single brand.
P2,do some national service.The rakyat never stop supporting you.
Whatever new models you launch,give some rebates so that the hardcore fanboys can buy extra flood insurance coverage.
Just imagine the pain n sufferings of the lady whose new Myvi is wrecked by flood waters at Hulu langat recently.
Dont just go for profits.Go for profits with a social responsibility.It will be a win win situation for all.
MY goodness, breakdown of sales number by each model.. Whole day just reading about sales number… Is this a statistic forum?
https://paultan.org/2021/04/01/perodua-q1-2021-sales-increase-29-to-almost-58k-4345-units-of-the-ativa-delivered-in-less-than-a-month/
Axxx Kataxxx:-
Sound like p1 fanboi toking that 80k X50 booking number on 1st day launching. 80k booking X50 but only 11k delivered? pity p1 fanboi always kena tipu by booking number. While ativa 4345 delivered on 1st month, in less than 5 month will easily overtake X50 sales, mark my words haha!
So u katAxxx dont just talk shit like kataxxx bawah tempurung. U makan ur musang king durian inside longkang only kesian.
Hahaha…. Kataxxx kena mkn rambutan inside longkang.
Kasi chan itu fanboi la macha. Covid season chip shortage season. Semua org sudah gila macha.
Still well done to p1 & p2.
But p1 will never beat p2 sales that for confirmation macha. 2022 will be another challenging year and another straight win for p2 as u know it macha.
The kataxxx talking ativa will beat x50 sales in 2021 and he reminded mark his words. So i record what he said and now recall. : )
Without chip shortage and pandemic, Perodua will sell more.
Nice excuse when Proton also faced the same issues.
Excuses, excuses.
Stupid logic. Without chip shortage and covid, P1 will also sell more.
Yeah lah.. Kancil where got use chip?
Who is kataxxx? Sound like u jer Axxx lol. Grow up la bro perodua has said they got issue in chip shortage. Almost every car manufacturer in the world got it. Without chip shortage i more believe perodua suv will lead the way even i no fan of either proton or perodua, never had their car. Me toyota and honda hnggghhh.
You know, since most manufacturers claim that chip shortage is the reason why they can’t sell more, maybe Perodua just jump on the wagon together to use the same excuse. I speculate only.
Mantap Perodua
All the big talk during launch but this King has DOA
DOA king can’t talk big.
Only 22%? Still a lot of efforts needed.
Please be noted, most of the x50 sales was 2020 year booking and many of them had cancel. So this is no surprise the Ativa might just claim that crown in 2022.
champion of high volume sales only in mini hatchback mini sedan segment
High volume sales is every automobile company’s target, regardless of segment, because this is how to survive & stay in business.
Nope. Mercedes would never be a mass market brand just to chase high volume. There are other ways to make money and not simply going down the barrel as P2 did.
Mercedes does not need to be a mass market automobile brand because it has already made a name of itself as a snob appeal luxury brand a century ago, and its survival continues as part of the Daimler AG group, which also has businesses in commercial vehicles, motorsports, fuel cells, industrial engines, GPS navigation software and even financial banking. In comparison, P2 does not have the same advantages as Mercedes in terms of a long history & the resources of a huge global business group.
How do you know that? I know Perodua did it. Back in 2019 when I bought my Bezza, I book (and approved loan) in Oct 2019 but they only deliver in Jan 2020. So tell me, in which year will the sales go to?
