The Perodua Myvi is one of those cars that are synonymous with all things Malaysia. So, the launch of the latest one is a big deal over here. The new car, which was fully designed and built in-house from the upper body onwards (means they designed the car themselves) has hit another glorious milestone in its chart. It has made 6,000 people book the car on the first day of its launch. Imagine that.
After receiving all the bookings, Perodua had started delivering registered cars on the day after its official launch on the 16th of November 2017. This was made possible because the order books were open on the 9th of November earlier.
And to mark the occasion, Perodua made its first official delivery to the first customer, Permodalan Nasional Berhad's Group Chairman, the Honourable Tan Sri Abdul Wahid Omar (photo at the start of this article).
So Perodua has done some magic with the new car here by actually clearing off all the previous Myvi stocks in record time. We say this because there were only a handful of Myvi remaining (16 units only) when the new car was launched. This is an amazing feat which credit must also go to the recent ‘Myvi 12 Iconic Years Anniversary SMS & Win Contest’ held till recently.
The three grand prize winners of the ‘Myvi 12 Iconic Years Anniversary SMS & Win Contest’ were also among the first owners when Perodua gave each of them the keys to an All-New Myvi 1.5 Advance yesterday. The All-New Myvi 1.5 Advance retails for RM55,300, on-the-road before insurance. Lucky people!
The winners are Ms Chin Mei Ling, 26, Mr Mohd Nazmil bin Mohd Nasir, 33, and Mr Ong Kok Seng, 60.
