Perodua leads the pack in terms of the number of vehicles registered for the month of March 2025 with 30,464 units, according to data released by the road transport department (JPJ) recently. This isn’t really a surprise as the local automaker has been at the top since the start of this year, so let’s see how other brands fared.
In second place is Proton with 13,471 units registered, which represents an increase from the 11,068 units in February. Meanwhile, Toyota saw vehicle registrations rise well above the 7,000-unit mark – this has been the case for January and February – for the first time this year with 10,768 units last month.
Coming in fourth is Honda with 9,606 units, while the fifth spot belonged to Jaecoo that saw 1,777 registrations. Mitsubishi is next with 1,331 units to take sixth and is followed by EV-only brand BYD in seventh with 1,020 units.
Chery and Mercedes-Benz were in close proximity with each other, but it was the former that saw higher registrations to take eighth with 936 units, while it was 923 units to sit in ninth. Rounding off the top 10 is Mazda with 837 units.
Below the 700-unit mark, we find BMW in 11th with 678 units to narrowly edge out Nissan in 12th with 667 units. Moving further down the list, there is Isuzu in 13th (585 units), Lexus in 14th (474 units) and Ford in 15th (428 units).
As for the bottom five, we have GWM in 16th with 398 units and Porsche in 17th with 281 units, although the latter’s figure is likely to include recon cars that JPJ still includes in its data. Next up is MG with 233 units for 18th, MINI with 206 units for 19th and Denza with 204 units for the final spot on the top 20 list.

To be honest….perodua is kind of subsidiary brand of Toyota in terms of the car model. As Perodua rebadge almost all model of Daihatsu except Bezza which is also powered by Daihatsu. Even Toyota is 3rd rank. It is still #1 for Toyota, Daihatsu acquired by Toyota, Perodua still depend most of the model from Daihatsu. People just buy Perodua because of local brand reputation.
I couldn’t believe that byd, chery, jaecoo also reach top sales in Malaysia.
Reputation or have no choice due to budget constraint?
