While Proton sales on the rise, aiming to take back no 1 crown from Perodua with the sales of new saga BLM alone was at 23,000 units last week, Perodua at the same time does not want to lose the sweet spot aiming to sell 170,000 units of cars in 2008. No latest offering from Perodua except facelifted MyVi expected to due in third quarter this year. Perodua target MyVi (shown above with airmaster body kit) and ViVa to be largest contributors to overall sales volume.

Facts from the news:

1. Perodua targets to sell 170,000 units of cars in 2008
2. MyVi and ViVa expected to be the major contributors to the figures
3. In 2007, Perodua solds 162,400 units of vehicles
4. MyVi biggest fan is women
5. Last month alone, ViVa received 11,000 units of booking
6. The booking received from Klang Valley area only

Who says ViVa doesn’t sell, but not sure how many from those booking translated into real sale. Only time will tell. Good luck to both P1 and P2.

Full news from Utusan Malaysia after the jump.
