Perodua aims to export 3,270 cars in 2019 – a 50% increase over last year’s 2,184 units. So far this year, the Malaysian carmaker has sent over 1,600 units to distributors outside Malaysia, with the Myvi and Axia being launched in Singapore and the Seychelles, respectively.
Now Mauritius is the export market to get the latest Myvi, after Indonesia (where it is sold as the Daihatsu Sirion) and Singapore. The island nation is one of Perodua’s oldest overseas markets and nearly 2,400 have been sold there since 1996.
The model made its debut recently at the Defi Media Motor Show, which took place at the Swami Vivekananda International Conference Centre in Mauritius. It is imported and distributed by Raouf Dusmohamud & Co Ltd.
Contributing to export target for 2019
“The third-generation Perodua Myvi has been very well-received in Malaysia and we believe Mauritians will appreciate its many qualities,” said Perodua President & CEO, Dato’ Zainal Abidin Ahmad. “The Myvi’s Mauritian debut should edge us closer to our year-end export target and boost Perodua’s brand exposure internationally, what with Mauritius being a major tourist destination.”
“Unique styling, amazing interior space and clever yet practical features join forces with high quality and durability for its occupants’ comfort and convenience. “With LED headlamps, keyless entry and start, Bluetooth, 4 or 6 airbags and stability control standard on both variants, the new Perodua Myvi is a very sophisticated and advanced product that Mauritians can truly get excited about,” said Raouf Dusmohamud & Co Ltd’s Managing Director, Raouf Dusmohamud.
Enhanced the ownership package
“Plus, we’re sweetening the ownership package for our valued customers by offering free servicing up to 30,000 kms with every Myvi purchase, which we are now also extending to all the other Perodua models in our current line-up, namely the Alza, Axia and Bezza,” he added.
Two variants of the Myvi are offered in Mauritius – the 1.3 G AT and 1.5 H AT, priced respectively at 699,000 (equivalent to RM81,300) and 775,000 (RM90,140) Mauritian Rupees.
