Perodua is narrowing the order-delivery gap for its Aruz seven-seater SUV, with some 13,000, or 52 per cent, of the 25,000 bookings received to date already fulfilled.
“We have managed to increase Perodua Aruz deliveries to an average of 110 units daily from 100 previously. We are continuing to work closely with our suppliers to further shrink the gap between orders and deliveries,” said Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer Dato’ Zainal Abidin Ahmad.
“The Perodua Aruz has been met with unprecedented demand. We thank all Malaysians for making the nation’s best-value SUV also one of its best-selling SUVs.
“Perodua is doing all it possibly can to maximise production and deliveries to shorten your wait, and we thank you very much for your understanding, patience and trust,” he added.
The Energy-Efficient Vehicle (EEV) certified Perodua Aruz has a class-leading rated fuel consumption figure of 15.6 km/l. With six airbags and Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) as standard, plus the AV variant’s Advanced Safety Assist 2.0, the Perodua Aruz has a maximum five-star ASEAN NCAP safety rating.
Pending the Malaysian Automotive Association’s (MAA) official numbers, Perodua sold 22,943 vehicles by its own count throughout May 2019. This brings its five-month tally to 105,743 units – an 8.5 per cent jump over the 97,487 units it sold from January through May 2018.
