The company said the trend is expected to continue and looks to be driving further ahead as the year progresses.
The uptick in sales results for the year-to-date is attributed to the ‘Bersama Lebih Makna’ Raya promotions, which offers benefits worth RM4,000 to those who choose to drive the Vios and Yaris home.

The film features Aedy Ashraf as Aidil, while Fitri is played by Amerul Afendi, with a special appearance by Toyota Gazoo Racing racer and Toyota Yaris ambassador, Janna Nick as Aqila.

The programme also saw 50 children receiving RM60 each as ‘duit raya’.
Volunteers from UMW Toyota Motor spent the whole day at the Masjid Nurul Iman in Kampung Tengah, Puchong.

fortunate.
In addition, UMW Toyota Motor will be celebrating Hari Raya with its ‘Toyota Raya Open House Weekender’ from May 21-22 in all showrooms, nationwide.
This is to reconnect with Toyota customers, both past, present and future, while celebrating Hari Raya together.
The weekend event will see UMW Toyota Motor extend great deals and the latest Ramadan promotions to its customers.
There will be gifts (while stocks last) after test driving any Toyota vehicle, on top of the showroom activities prepared for all.
