Proton sales drop in January due to floods

In a statement yesterday, the national car maker said its production plant in Shah Alam and Tanjung Malim were unaffected by the floods in December but its vendors were not lucky.

“The situation was further compounded by minimal carry over stock from the previous month as the company worked to close the gap between supply and market demand,” it said. Nonetheless, despite the hiccups in production, Proton said it is optimistic to meet its 2022 sales target.“Thankfully, production for all our models resumed in January, though some required more time than others.

He pointed out that among all models, the Proton X50 and Proton X70 were the first to resume production.
