Janji dapat kete while the OPR only @ 2.00%, not yet 2.75-3.00% average pre-Covid19 era for post Covid19 era now..
All car brands sales are also dropping in the month of April due to chip shortage and supply chain issues
So,by now chip shortage is here to stay till 2024.
Lets wait for Honda Malaysia’s announcement on sales,on non national car segment.
Lets hope DRB dont keep repeating P1’s excuse on chip shortage.
Don’t forget that honda also have issues for ongoing chip shortage, supply issues and others.
Lets check it out..other brands..whether they drop % in terms of sales.
When sales are down..floods…chip shortage…the Ukraine war, Shanghai lockdown..macam macam ada excuse.
Could it be a problematic workforce,infighting amongst managers,lack of followup etc ? Can u imagine their Japanese CEO has to step in to conduct war room parts shortage meetings?
Come on,grow up Toyota…find ways to improve,not find more excuses.Fanboys might migrate to other brands if this excuse mentality is perpetuated.
Well, at least Toyota are finding ways to improve by reducing chip shortage and all sorts of issues including supply
Copy paste: “Ape benda la yg ko merepek ni”
Not enough outrage here. Where are all the bashers? Still sleeping kah? When Proton did this you find them camping at that tered for days. Come on! Get your lazy arses off and spill your bile here!
When corrola cross comes with electronic parking brake
Electronic parking brake is not as reliable as manual parking brake
Aik, Didnt some said others are not affected by chip shortages, only proton? Tu dah telan ludah sendiri.
Toyota Voxy will be highlighted in Malaysia if UMW should be look into…
The situation with Toyota is even more acute because the waiting period is just as long regardless of variant.
