Even those who don’t like cars, like my curious neighbors, know that Perodua just launched a new SUV. It’s only March, but the Perodua Ativa should easily be the biggest car launch of 2021 when we do our roundup later. And from initial numbers, it won’t be long before the new model is everywhere in town.
It’s one thing to launch a car and another thing to consistently produce and deliver. For example, Honda reminded us yesterday that it has delivered nearly 13,000 fifth-generation City units through February. Meanwhile, the highly publicized Proton X50, which also launched in October 2020, has found 8,141 homes.
Back to Perodua. We have the latest figures from the market leader, and as of 3:00 p.m. today (March 5), he has accumulated 6,027 bookings for Ativa since taking orders began on February 19. This time two days ago, the night of the launch, they had about 5,000 names, so that’s 1,000 more in just over a day.
It’s one thing to collect bookings, it’s another thing to deliver. After almost two days of sales, at 4.30 pm today (March 5), Perodua has registered 102 units of the SUV. It’s worth noting that unlike many major new models from other brands, Ativa’s pre-launch / teaser reservation period was very short (less than two weeks) and prospects were not able to view / test until after launch.
We are really surprised that there are some who think that the Ativa, priced at RM 61,500 to RM 72,000 On the road with SST exemption, without insurance, it is expensive. This is an SUV with the latest DNGA platform, a turbo engine, a novel D-CVT gearbox, ASA 3.0 / AEB across the board, adaptive LED headlights, and semi-autonomous Tier 2 technology in the AV – Were you expecting the prices of Myvi?
It seems that the real car buyers in the market do not share the same sentiments: As of last week, 75% of bookings were for the topper of the range, with most of those AV buyers opting for pearl colors (red or white) with black roof. , which is a double cost option. This trend is expected to continue.
