      Deii, Honda only sells cars – sedan & suv. Toyol sells cars, trucks, vans and recon breadbox is also added. Remove those recons especially (which paultan.org should) and Handal would be leading. Only a fool Toyol supporter tak tahu.

  • Hahaha…. H claim no 1 non national segmen but in sedan category. Even City sedan model also need to combine with city hatchback to overtake vios. Civic model government fleet deal with PDRM contract purchase that makes overall sedan segmen H claim no 1. Just to show they still no 1 but in sedan segmen not in overall volume unit registered…
