The Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) yesterday revealed some stats on vehicle sales in Malaysia for the first half of 2025 (1H 2025) broken down by segments.
A total of 347,084 passenger vehicles were sold in the country from January to June (-3% year-on-year, or YoY). Unsurprisingly, SUVs are up 4.8% YoY (99,891 vs 95,307 units), although the high-rider market is still less than half as big as that of ‘passenger cars’ (read: sedans and hatchbacks), which contracted by 7.3% YoY (212,279 vs 229,075 units).
About a third the size of the SUV market is the MPV market, which grew 2.6% YoY (33,834 vs 32,963 units), while window vans climbed 111.3% YoY (1,080 vs 511 units), although the quantum is a small 569 units.
The situation is rather more dire for commercial vehicles, with a significant 21% YoY dive (26,552 vs 33,595 units) causing drops across all segments.
In descending order of percentage decrease are prime movers (-62.5% YoY, 372 vs 993 units), buses (-24.6% YoY, 89 vs 118 units), trucks (-23.6% YoY, 5,262 vs 6,883 units), panel vans (-21.6% YoY, 1,456 vs 1,857 units) and pick-up trucks (-18.4% YoY, 19,373 vs 23,744 units).
It should be noted that pick-up trucks remain by far the largest market within the commercial sphere, due to many of them being used as private vehicles as well. Although their percentage drop is the smallest among commercial vehicles, their absolute drop is the biggest at 4,371 units.
