Proton announced today that it ended 2020 with a total sales of 109,716 cars sold. Despite losing over two months’ worth of sales due to MCO, sales were up 8.8 percent from 2019.
However, Proton’s total sales tally is still behind Perodua's 220,154 cars. Proton says its market share also increased by 4.4 percent, reaching 21.1 percent.
“We are grateful to have achieved this level of performance against the backdrop of 2020. To describe it as challenging would be an understatement but we persevered. Our results were backed by many factors, trust from our customers, support from the government, commitment from vendors, resilience of our dealers and also the diligence of our staff”, said Dr. Li Chunrong, CEO of Proton.
