The past few months of the tax holiday period is a great time to buy expensive items because the Government Service Tax (GST) is no longer applicable, and the Sales and Service Tax (SST) has yet to be implemented. Malaysians realised this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to buy cars, so a lot of them flocked to their nearest Perodua showroom to get themselves the new Myvi.

If you were one of 3,000 like-minded customers, you may have to wait a little while longer before you get your wheels. Perodua has announced that production of the new Myvi has been temporarily halted.

This is due to a supply disruption at one of its vendors. Perodua said it would bear full responsibility and is taking all the necessary measures to endure that production continues as soon as possible. “We wish to apologise most sincerely to our customers who have been waiting patiently for their new Myvi,” said Perodua Sales Sdn Bhd managing director Zahari Husin.
He stated that the affected customers were supposed to receive their cars before Sept 1 and Perodua had made delivering the new Myvi to them a priority. “We are working as hard as we can to remedy this supply disruption and resume our Myvi production as soon as possible,” he added.
Since its launch in November last year, over 68,000 of 120,000 Perodua Myvi bookings have been delivered.
