Based on vehicle registration data provided by the road transport department (JPJ), the Perodua Myvi is leading the way in terms of sales among B-segment models so far this year. In the first seven months from January to July, 41,466 units of the “king” were sold, which is double that of the Toyota Vios and Yaris combined in second place.
Before looking at other models, some disclaimers are needed. Firstly, the registration figures were obtained from data.gov.my and are publicly available to all. Secondly, JPJ data doesn’t distinguish between body styles for models that are available as a sedan or hatchback, as is the case with the Honda City and Mazda 2.
As such, we decided it would be a fairer comparison that models that are offered in both body styles but have different model names be combined into one. This is what was done for the Vios and Yaris as well as the Proton Persona and Iriz. We’re also omitting electric vehicles (EVs), which get their own mention in a separate post which you should also check out.
As mentioned earlier, the Vios and Yaris occupy the second spot with a combined total of 20,961 units. This is followed by the Honda City in third with 15,546 units, the Persona and Iriz with a combined 14,960 units, while lingering at the bottom is the Nissan Almera with 1,256 units and the Mazda 2 with only 32 units.
These standings are mirrored if we look at the sales figures for July 2024, with the Myvi taking the top spot with 6,778 units. This is again followed by the Vios and Yaris (3,436 units), Honda City (2,731 units), Persona and Iriz (2,446 units), Nissan Almera (221 units) and Mazda 2 (five units).
The Myvi has always been a force to be reckoned with in the B-segment space and is very likely to remain the “king” for the remaining five months of this year and overall. The closer battle will be between Honda (City) and Toyota (Vios and Yaris), so state your guess on which brand will take the second spot at the end of 2024.

Imagine if perodua got B-segment sedan, tapau habis
Terciduk s70
Why no PT no compare
B-seg and C-seg SUV
Include the EV also
Proton S70 July: 1370 units
We already have.
*look at 2023 perodua vios*
Perodua sales wil b more robust if they launch the Nexis before Proton launch their E-Mas.
Bezza sales lesser than mazda 2?
Itu sebab dia mengaku dia dalam segment A, tak macam ada orang, sizenya lebih kurang B, tapi mengaku dirinya size segment C. Tengok nombor dalam table kat atas, confirm dia takut.
Segments are self-defined. It’s not a fixed thing. In fact Axia is bigger than the myvi. The S70 only need to be bigger than persona to qualify as a C seg.
Axia bigger than myvi? Hahaha
Current Axia has longer wheelbase than current Myvi. And Axia has same width and is longer than 2nd gen Myvi. So, he was not totally wrong.
Org tanya lain, kamu pulak lencong jauh semata-mata nak tunjuk kekurangan ilmu sendiri tu kenapa pulak? Kalau S70 yang terang2 lebih besar dari segment B pergi mengaku bersaing dalam segment B, kamu ni pun tetap tak puas hati jugak kan.
Where is Axia?
As per mentioned, B-segment sales in Malaysia.
Axia Segment A
Axia is A-segment
For those who asked about where is Bezza and Axia, they are considered as A segment cars, therefore it’s not on this list.
PS: I’m not surprised to see how much Mazda sales have declined. It prices above the price of other B segment sedan and hatchback with next to no new technology that other B segment sedan has.
pity those 32 owners who bought a 110k car with 2 airbags. they probably really wanted the free service instead of safety features.
btw its not mazda fault. its Bermaz being stupid. thailand and japan spec cars both have 6 airbags and full ADAS functionality.
masuk je malaysia (CBU) terus habis kasi kosong spec. they also removed the heads up display with the latest so called update. they think malaysian buyers stupid or what.
Can’t believe Mazda 2 had 5 sales lol
All the best sellers are milo tins. Makes sense for our obese and diabetic country.
I think myvi failed the ” moose” test but now daihatsu hiding it from the consumers.
Pro-Ton sux-ing dara-h
Child-ish com-ment
cannot be, honda is king forever
Honda City dominated by its hatchback, acceptable.
Can’t believe Honda is losing. Very worrying indeed coz B segment makes up the largest customer base. Only HRV sells well.
Everyone want a lifted hatchback
A sub rm60k b segment with fuel saving easy maintenance timing chain engine only myvi 1 choice. Vios City last gen was good with discount price around rm80k+ but latest gen price hike to rm90k+ with inclusion of some useless feature like pedal shift or camera sensing. Rear cramp head room also made user to choose hatchback if they don’t use the rear boot space that often.
