Covid-19 led to Increase in Car Sales: Due to Movement Control Order restrictions, the demand for used cars significantly diminished during the peak of Covid-19 pandemic. This was due to low supply and closure of OEM dealerships and local tents during lockdown which was further fueled by decrease in purchasing power which led to postponing of new and used car purchases. However, as the lockdown restrictions were on ease, there was a significant growth in used car sales as people started to prefer personal vehicles over shared transport. Other factors increasing the sales were favorable tax policies and sale of vehicles by people with multiple car ownership. During the initial months of the year 2020, the demand for used cars in the country remained low, however there was increase in demand in the second half of the year post ease in the lockdown. To drive sales and to increase customer football, the manufacturers are expected to shift focus towards digital medium.

The increasing credit availability in the country along with car loan moratoriums and other incentives under Penjana is driving the growth of the industry. The industry is expected to demonstrate strong growth in the future led by growth of online used car platforms that provide convenience to both buyers and sellers and makes the entire process smoother. The Malaysia Used Car Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 9.7% on the basis of GMV over the forecast period 2021-2026F.
