UMW Toyota Motor is off to a good start in 2022, achieving a combined sales results of 7,528 for Toyota and Lexus in January 2022. This is a significant increase of 96% compared to the same period last year of 3,845 units.

Among the passenger cars, Vios reigns as the bestselling Toyota model, accounting for 28% of total sales this month, while the Hilux is the best-selling pick-up truck with 38% of total sales.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u201cWe are thankful for the government\u2019s decision to extend the Sales and Service Tax (SST) exemption incentives for passenger vehicles until 30 June 2022. This has greatly helped automotive players like us to recover from the impact of the pandemic during the last two years. We also encourage Toyota fans to take advantage of the extended tax exemption to purchase their dream car, coupled with the value for money deals UMW Toyota Motor is offering such as the ongoing Stay Ahead sales campaign to enjoy the best savings during this period,\u201d said Ravindran K, President of UMW Toyota Motor.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The UMW Toyota Motor \u2018Stay Ahead\u2019 campaign is offering savings up to RM4,500. The promotion features Malaysian-favourite model Vios at installments from RM540 with RM2,216 sales tax savings, as well as the lifestyle hatchback Yaris at installments from RM493 on top of RM2,192 sales tax savings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In addition to the positive sales results, January has been an eventful month for UMW Toyota Motor. Earlier in the month, the mobility leader partnered with Yayasan Raja Muda Selangor to extend a hand to Malaysians affected by the flood. Through its \u2018Back On Your Feet\u2019 Programme, the company contributed RM10,000 to Sekolah Kebangsaan Sungai Lui for the school\u2019s repairs of its partially damaged premise from the flood. UMW Toyota Motor also donated essential home appliances to the affected community in Sungai Lui such as rice cookers, kettles and gas stoves.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\u201cUMW Toyota Motor endeavours to propel society forward by empowering people beyond the road. We are glad to have been given the opportunity to partner with Yayasan Raja Muda Selangor to give back to the community we operate in and help them get back on their feet during these trying times,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
