PETALING JAYA: Total vehicle sales rose 10% to 54,776 units last month from 49,987 units a year earlier, mainly due to the rush for deliveries by companies with their financial year ending on March 31, according to the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA).

In a statement yesterday, it said sales in March were higher compared with February due to the former being a longer working month.
