It’s time to stop using the term national cars to describe Proton and Perodua

Perusahaan Otomobil Nasional, the company which we now know as Proton Holdings, was established in 1983 as Malaysia’s national car company. Ten years later in 1993, Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua, better known as Perodua, was established as our second national national car company. We are now in the midst of setting up a third national car. All three national car companies were mooted by our then Prime Minister Dr. Mahathir Mohamad. In the early days, both Proton and Perodua were in every sense, a na

Earlier this year, we reported that Perodua will become Daihatsu's regional R&D hub, and that it will be developing a new sedan for the South East Asia region. Where it got interesting was the part of the presentation slides that showed four silhouettes of unknown cars of various body types. While Perodua’s CEO Dato’ Zainal Abidin Ahmad cautioned us against reading too much into it, he did confirm that one of it is a sedan and it would be a big project.

Perodua团队赴日本开发Daihatsu车型,计划将独立研发自主车型

Perodua目前已经进入了其转型计划的第三阶段了,该计划旨在提高公司的海外竞争力,并着眼于可持续发展的未来战略,将自身整合进Daihatsu的全球供应链之中。 2月16日,Perodua的总裁兼首席执行官Dato’ Zainal Abidi表示,Perodua也在积极与合作伙伴协调,以发掘自身专业在国外市场的潜能。 他举例说,Perodua的员工目前正在日本开发Daihatsu车型,这是Perodua计划向海外输出我国专业技术的一部分。 他在当天宣布了该公司的首个可持续发展战略“Perodua Smart Build”,这个计划几乎囊括了我国所有的汽车供应商和分销商业务。 出于显而易见的原因,Dato’ Zainal并没有具体说明Perodua的团队在日本开发的是哪款车型,但WapCar.my了解到,在Perodua正在开发的车型中,有一款面向东南亚市场的微型轿车——D92A。 所有的信息都表明,这款车型将成为下一代的Toyota Vios。但正如上文提到的一样,Perodua没有销售其它任何在日本开发的Daihatsu车型,所以也不要认为这款车型会由Perodua销售。 去年年尾,

2021 Perodua Ativa要比Proton X50更加本地化?

是的,你没有看错:近日发布的2021 Perodua Ativa,要比Proton X50更加“马来西亚”!
