Previously, in the entry titled "Not A Jaguh Kampung We Are", this blog shared about how Perodua, being a Malaysian brand was ranked number 4 in the region, in-terms of total sales of new car. Today, it is intriguing to share another fact that will make all of us Malaysians proud, that is how the Perodua Axia, designed and produced locally by Perodua was ranked at 8th placing among Top Ten Best-selling Models in Asean in 2017.
It is truly inspiring for Perodua, being just a small and young local car company to have its product, Axia to be ranked alongside all the big names within the automotive industry. Despite only being sold domestically, Axia was still able to stand tall at number 8 against other brands who are selling in most ASEAN countries.
In 2017, 88,417 units Axia was sold. A slight drop compared to 89,059 units sold in 2016, when Axia was ranked at 7th placing. Axia is the first "transformation model" by Perodua produced at its EEV certified plant, Perodua Global Manufacturing Sdn Bhd.
Equally inspiring is that the other Perodua model, its all new Myvi is now being displayed at Daihatsu Motor Co (DMC)., Ltd's head office in Osaka, Japan. Maybe to some, they will ask a "so what?" question. Yes, maybe It is not a big deal but the fact that the new Myvi is totally a local product, designed, engineered and produced by Malaysians for Malaysians, it is a proud recognition for Perodua, for DMC to showcase the product at their gallery in Japan.
This is a good exposure of Malaysian's product not just to DMC's Japanese business partners and associates but to all its other visitors from all over the world. This is like putting a Perodua product at par with DMC's models. This is like putting a Malaysian product at the same level as the Japanese products.
For me, I am thankful of these achievements. I am sure these will further inspire Peroduans to work harder to be the best and to give the best. To Malaysians, these are "Malaysians Boleh".
