Lexus RX dominates the luxury car market in Malaysia, with BMW and Mercedes-Benz close behind!
WilliamNov 15, 2024, 04:48 PM
Recently, the Road Transport Department of Malaysia (JPJ) released vehicle registration data, revealing the best-selling cars in Malaysia as of October 2024. At the top of the list for high-end models is the Lexus RX, with 3,591 units registered, far ahead of the BMW 3 Series, which holds the second position. The top ten cars in this report include two models from BMW, two from Lexus, five from Mercedes-Benz, and one from Porsche.
It is reported that the Lexus RX is a popular grey import or refurbished vehicle, and JPJ data does not differentiate between official and refurbished models. Since refurbished cars are almost always from premium brands, they likely make up a significant portion of the sales figures.
The Lexus RX is also favored by local consumers due to its high reliability, even though its price is not the most competitive. Consumers still prefer it. After the 2023 Lexus RX 350 Luxury was made available for pre-order in Malaysia, more than 500 orders were received within the first week, indicating its popularity.
There are two models of Lexus RX available in the Malaysian market, priced at RM 468,888-498,888. Its fuel consumption performance is 8.5-9.4L/100km and its 0-100 acceleration time is between 5.9-7.6s. In terms of power, the Lexus RX 350 Luxury is equipped with a 2.4L turbo engine, with a maximum power of 275 Hp. The Lexus RX 500h F Sport version uses a 2.4L turbo engine with an added electric motor, elevating the maximum power to 366Hp.

Perodua Myvi and Bezza may undergo major upgrades in 2026
After the update, the Bezza will no longer be just a low-cost alternative but a core model in the Perodua system with greater market competitiveness and brand premium potential. The upgrade of the Myvi is not to be unconventional but to strengthen the brand and market, ensuring that the Myvi continues to maintain its irreplaceable position in the new round of product competition.
Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?
Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.
Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?
The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?
Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?
Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.
Perodua Traz 2025:Spec, Price and Features
Perodua Traz has been officially launched in Malaysia. It is a B-segment five-seater SUV built on the DNGA platform. Compared to the Yaris Cross, which emphasizes brand and quality, the Traz comes with a localized rate of about 95%, offering a more friendly price and practical features.
