Perodua aims for 2% growth in car sales this year

Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua Sdn Bhd (Perodua) is targeting for the sale of 209,000 vehicles this year, which is a 2% jump from the 204,900 units sold in 2017.

Speaking to reporters at the 2017 full year review briefing, Perodua’s president and CEO Datuk Dr Aminar Rashid Salleh said, this year the car maker is focusing on maximising the sales potential of all its models to meet its target.

Production of vehicles is also expected to be ramped up to 215,334 units compared to the 200,146 vehicles produced last year.

Aminar said that due to unfavourable foreign exchange conditions the company may focus more on the exports of parts and accessories instead of complete built-ups.

Perodua currently exports to countries such as Indonesia, Mauritius, Sri Lanka and Fiji.
