by hlk Thu 16 May 2013, 19:10
UALA LUMPUR: Sales of passenger and commercial vehicles in April this
year increased to 52,489 units from 47,774 units in April last year,
according to the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA).
In a
statement today, MAA said the passenger vehicle segment recorded higher
sales of 45,564 units compared with 41,433 units last year, whereas
sales in the commercial vehicle segment rose to 6,925 units from 6,341
units last year.
However, it said, the sales volume for April
was 5,133 units or nine per cent lower than the previous month because
of uncertainty in the market due to the 13th general election.
The
association said output of passenger vehicles last month increased to
45,770 units from 39,634 units but output of commercial vehicles
decreased to 4,957 units from 5,194 units.
It said total production for both segments increased to 50,727 units from 44,828 units.
On outlook, MAA said it expects the sales volume for May 2013 to be maintained at April's level. -- BERNAMA
