MAA reports PV production up 5% in June 2025, while CV sales and output decline amid plant shutdowns and shorter work month.
MAA: July 2025’s TIV Will Be Higher than June
The Malaysian automotive market saw mixed results in June 2025, with passenger vehicle (PV) production showing year-on-year growth while commercial vehicle (CV) output remained lower.
According to figures released by the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA), PV production reached 49,075 units, up 5 per cent from 46,920 in June 2024. However, year-to-date PV production totalled 333,737 units, representing a 10 per cent decline compared to 370,952 units in the same period last year.
In terms of sales, deliveries in June totalled 49,084 units, a 5 per cent decrease from 52,556 units in the same month in 2024. Year-to-date sales stood at 347,084 units, a 3 per cent decrease from 357,856 units a year earlier.
The CV segment, meanwhile, recorded June production of 2,992 units, just below the 3,000 units posted in June 2024. Year-to-date CV production reached 18,889 units, 11 per cent lower than the 21,312 units within the same period last year.
CV sales showed a bleak picture with a 10 per cent decline from 5,586 units in June 2024 to 5,028 units this year, contributing to a 21 per cent drop in year-to-date sales—from 33,595 units in the previous year to 26,552 units.
Overall, the Total Industry Volume (TIV) for June 2025 was 21 per cent lower than in May 2025’s 69,442 units. The MAA attributed the decline to a one-week plant shutdown during the Hari Raya Aidiladha week and a shorter working month of 19 days.
Looking ahead, the MAA projected July 2025’s TIV to be higher than June’s, citing a full working month of 23 days expected to help boost both PV and CV output and sales.
