KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 27): Perusahaan Otomobil Kedua Sdn Bhd (Perodua) is optimistic of launching its maiden sedan model next year, says President and CEO Datuk Aminar Rashid Salleh.
He said the company is currently in discussion with its technical partner, Daihatsu Motor Company Ltd, on the technical specifications for the car and is now focusing on launching a new compact model car this year.
"The new compact model is expected to be launched in the second half of the year," Aminar told reporters at a Chinese New Year luncheon today.
He said the new compact and sedan model would be manufactured at the company's new plant in Rawang, Selangor, while its powertrain would be manufactured in Sendayan, Negeri Sembilan.
The Rawang plant, which is 90 per cent ready, would be completed by the middle of the year while the Sendayan plant is expected to be completed in March.
Aminar said the Rawang plant would be equipped with a RM65 million test track to cater for sophisticated technology to be installed in the upcoming models.
The largest passenger carmaker in Malaysia by sales last year, Perodua sold 196,100 units for a 30 per cent share of the domestic passenger car market.
