UMW Toyota Motor announced it ended Q1 2023 on a high note by registering 9,026 units for its Toyota brand and 110 units for its Lexus luxury brand for March 2023.
This marks the highest ever sales registered for a first quarter for the company.
Total sales for the month of March 2023 stood at 9,136 units (Toyota + Lexus), compared to 9,297 units (Toyota + Lexus) recorded in February 2023.
Total year-to-date sales registered for March 2023 stood at 25,219 units compared to 22,447 units for year-to-date sales registered in March 2022, a positive increase of 12% from the previous year.
The month of March also saw the unveiling of the All-New Toyota Vios, a popular subcompact sedan that has been a bestseller in the Malaysian non-national car market since its introduction in 2003.
The new and highly anticipated model boasts improved performance, quicker acceleration and new technology. The Vios is now touted as an even more compelling choice for customers looking for a reliable, efficient, and affordable car.
“The Vios represents our commitment to providing our customers with the best vehicles and ownership experience and is definitely a model that we are proud to put on the road”, said UMW Toyota Motor president Datuk Ravindran K.
Meanwhile, the company also held a tree-planting event dubbed ‘UMW Green Shoots
Initiative’.
The event was hosted by the Malaysian Nature Society at Tanjung Tuan, Melaka in conjunction with
the Raptor Watch 2023 event.
The initiative supports the National 100 Million Trees Planting Campaign and matches the three
objectives of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDG).
This is also aligned with Toyota Motor Corporation’s commitment to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.
Mangrove saplings were planted to assist in the rehabilitation of the mangrove swamp ecosystem
in Tanjung Tuan, which was destroyed because of an oil spill in 2020 contributing to offset CO2
emissions in Malaysia.
Up to 6,100 trees were planted by 250 volunteers made up of staff volunteers, students and
teachers from University Putra Malaysia, Serdang and Politeknik Port Dickson, Taylor’s University
and members of the public.
In conjunction with the Ramadan season, UMW Toyota Motors has announced a promotion on
selected models worth up to RM 8,000, 100% loan financing and a Toyota Service Savers
promotion with monthly instalments from as low as RM22.
Toyota owners can also expect a seamless car ownership journey with the Extra Mile after-sale services that promise Malaysians an exceptional car ownership experience.
