By CARSIFU | 3 September 2018


PETALING JAYA: In line with the government’s re-introduction of the Sales and Service Tax (SST) effective Sept 1, 2018 Perodua has released new prices for all its models, which have been reduced between 1% - 3% compared with Goods and Services Tax (GST)-era pricing.

Prices for the Bezza, Alza, Axia and Myvi now starts from RM34,490, RM51,490, RM22,990 and RM42,790 respectively.

“Based on the new tax structure, almost all Perodua models see price reductions compared to the GST price structure,” said Perodua Sales Sdn Bhd Managing Director Datuk Dr Zahari Husin.

To recap, the government zeroed the GST rate (from 6%) on 1 June 2018, opening up a ‘tax holiday’ and a spike in vehicle demand that lasted three months.

In July, the Finance Ministry announced that the SST, which was due to replace the GST, would be set at 10% for sales and 6% for services.

“On Perodua’s service and parts, we will continue to give competitive pricing to our customers. We truly appreciate the unwavering support the people have shown for our products and services, and will continue to improve ourselves for our customers,” said Zahari.
