Zero GST- Proton Announces Their 0% (Zero Rated) GST Car Prices - BUT, I Note That There is Now No Perdana in the Latest Price List? [UPDATED]


Proton came out with a recent announcement that they will be giving out service vouchers to cars which have been sold until 31st May 2018 which is the period prior to zero-rated Goods & Services Tax (GST) coming into effect on 1 June 2018. Now, they have announced their revised price list for cars sold from 1st June 2018 onwards. More savings with the zero rated GST when it comes to buying Proton cars for the moment.


Here are the official prices for Proton Cars which will come into effect 1st June 2018 until further notice (or when SST is re-implemented)



One strange thing I noticed is that the Proton Perdana seems to be missing from the list above. Is this a sign that Proton are ending their collaboration with Honda? A victim due to a lack of demand? Has their new partners Geely ending this project? Can be still buy the Perdana? Will let you folks out there know as soon as they tell me.

[Update] - There is also a less GST price revision for the Perdana. According to some sources - stocks for the Perdana are very low at the moment due to government (and most probably GLC) linked purchases made recently. I also suppose that since public demand for the model is low, Proton are not pushing production for this model at the moment. 

Instant Cash Rebate or service vouchers for Buying Pre-1st June 2018
Just a recap folks... 

As stated in the previous article, with zero-rated GST only due for implementation on 1 June 2018, buyers of Proton cars can enjoy lower post GST pricing with immediate effect. Though the sticker price will remain the same until the date GST gets zero-rated, all customers will be offered the choice between an instant cash rebate for cars registered from 16 May to 31 May or service vouchers equivalent in value to the difference between the current and new price of the car, effective June.

Ongoing Financing Promotion
The current 'Kosong-kosong' promotion means buyers of the Proton Iriz (Executive and Premium variant), Proton Ertiga (all variants) and Proton Exora (all variants) who sign up with Hong Leong Bank will receive 0% financing for the first year*. Customers who prefer to buy a Proton Saga or Proton Persona will receive free 3-months instalment if they finance their new car via PROTON Commerce*.

Additional Cash Discounts
As for fans of Proton Suprima S, they will enjoy substantial cash discounts of up to RM15,172 on top of the zero-rated GST pricing for these cars.



6% discount for After Sales

The zero-rated GST offer extends also to servicing at all authorised PROTON service centres where a 6% discount (for labour and periodical maintenance parts only) is being offered to all owners who send in their cars for periodical maintenance.
