Earlier today during Perodua’s media conference, the second Malaysian car maker reiterated that they are capable of launching one all-new model (FMC, full model change in Perodua’s terminology) and two facelift models in one year’s time.

Of course, this is still pending any word from Perodua themselves, so this date is still pretty much unconfirmed. However, CVT confirmed!

Ever since 2006, Proton lost their number one spot in the market to Perodua - a position that they are currently trying to reclaim with the help of Geely. Let's see how is Proton performing in order to close the gap with Perodua. In 2020, Proton managed to shift 109,716 cars, an increase of 8.8% from 2019. In the process, Proton managed to increase its market share by 4.4%, reaching 21.1 percent. While Proton's figures seem impressive, Perodua on the other hand sold 220,163 new vehicles in 2020
