Proton has announced that it has sold 13,451 units in November (-13.6% versus October, which is its best month so far this year), exports included. This brings its year-to-date (YTD) tally to 143,322 units (+3.6% year-on-year, or YoY), so it needs to sell 12,678 units this month if it wants to close 2025 with 156,000 units. The national carmaker estimates Malaysia’s total industry volume (TIV) to be currently 0.9% smaller than it was last year, and based on this, expects market shares of 18.4% for November and 19.7% YTD. 6,931 Sagas found homes in November for 66,038 units YTD. Most of these would be of the outgoing model, as the new Saga MC3 was only launched on November 27. Proton says Tanjong Malim is ramping up production to meet demand – over 30,000 people have put their names down for the RM38k-49k sedan. November also saw 2,127 X50s (25,974 units YTD, +23.5% YoY, still B-SUV leader), 1,487 S70s (15,828 units YTD, still C-sedan leader), 1,050 Personas (14,214 units YTD), 471 X70s (7,184 units YTD), 234 X90s (2,357 units YTD) and 241 Irizes (3,208 units YTD) sold. On to the zero-emissions models. 830 eMas 7s were sold in November (7,784 units YTD, still Malaysia’s best-selling EV). While Proton did not divulge eMas 5 sales figures, it says the model contributed to a 14.8% month-on-month increase for the eMas range. On exports, Proton says 460 cars were sold outside Malaysia in November (5,014 units YTD, highest since 2022, +37.3% over end-2024). The national carmaker targets to export 6,000 units this year.
