Perodua Delivers Its 10,000th Bezza
Yes, you read it right. The ten thousandth Bezza. To be precise, there are 10,200 units of the new Bezza sedan sold as of the morning of 30th August 2016. This impressive figure comes just a little over a month after since the Bezza’s official launch, on the back of an expected soft market.
Today, Perodua Sales Sdn Bhd Managing Director, Dr Zahari Husin presented a mock key to the 10,000th Bezza buyer, Puan Zetty Aswani Fazwin at a simple ceremony at Perodua Sentral in Petaling Jaya. “We thank Puan Zetty for choosing Perodua as your brand of choice and Bezza as your car of choice. We are currently working to ensure timely delivery of all our models to our valued customers,” Dr Zaharin said.
Puan Zetty is part of the 44% of Bezza buyers who picked the 1.3L Advance variant. The other popular model is the 1.3L Premium X automatic (43%). According to Perodua, over 25,000 bookings for the Bezza have been received since it started accepting bookings on 16 July. Yet despite the overwhelming response to the Bezza, Perodua reported that it only has a minor impact on the sales of their other models like the Axia and Myvi.
“For the month of July, we delivered over 2,600 Bezza in the 10-day period it was launched. So far in August, we have delivered 7,400 units and we will maximize delivery for the convenience of our customers,” added Dr Zahari.
In the first seven months of 2016, Perodua sold 112,500 vehicles, accounting for 35.4% of the total industry volume (TIV) of 317,900 vehicles.
At the presentation ceremony, Perodua also took the opportunity to wish all Malaysians ‘Selamat Hari Merdeka’.
