KUALA LUMPUR, May 24 (Bernama) — The UMW Group registered 25,641 units in April 2023, bringing the total sales for the first four months of the year to 129,424 units. Both UMW Toyota Motor (“UMWT”) and UMW’s associate company, Perodua recorded healthy sales in April despite a shorter working month due to the Hari Raya holidays.
UMWT registered 6,767 units in April 2023, marginally lower than the 6,946 units delivered in April 2022. For the first four months of 2023, UMWT registered 31,986 units, representing a 9% growth compared with the 29,393 units registered in the corresponding period of 2022. As of April 2023, UMWT’s market share stood at 13.4%. Year-to-date, the top selling models were the Toyota Vios, Hilux and Corolla Cross. UMWT expects the demand and sales to be sustained throughout the year, supported by the introduction of new and facelift models. To refresh its model line-up, UMWT has started order taking for the all-new Lexus RX 350 last week.
