, which saw its automotive sales surged 35% in the first quarter of 2021, expects the momentum to continue in the second quarter.
“We expect the sales growth momentum to continue in the second quarter of the year supported by the backlog of orders for both UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) and Perodua as well as the sales tax exemption,” UMW Holdings president and group chief executive officer Datuk Ahmad Fuaad Mohd Kenali said in a statement.
“We are indeed grateful to our customers for their strong support of our products and services, especially for the newly-launched models.
“Moving forward, both UMWT and Perodua will continue to introduce new and improved models and deliver superior after-sales services to meet our customers’ expectations.
