Proton sales rebound to 13,028 units in March

KUALA LUMPUR: Proton sales continued to recover in March with 13,028 units sold, a 41.2% jump over the previous month, for a forecast market share of 19%.

However, on a year-on-year (y-o-y) basis, sales in March were down 13% as the automaker's performance in 1Q was negatively impacted by flood-affected local vendors, while disruptions to logistics and a chip shortage added to the headwinds.
