MANILA, Philippines – Mazda Philippines registered its best sales month on record under Berjaya Auto Philippines Inc, and best sales quarter ever for Mazda in the Philippines—all these on top of a 49 percent year-to-date year-over-year growth.
Aside from the new monthly record of 355 units sold for September, this achievement also sets a new best for Mazda vehicle sales in the Philippines as sales from January to September this year have already surpassed 2013’s full year total. Moreover, the sales figures from each of the months of May to September 2014 reveal that these are also the best consecutive five-month performance by far for the Mazda brand.
“Mazda’s growing sales numbers is a reflection of BAP’s commitment to the brand and its loyal customers,” says BAP president and CEO, Steven Tan. He adds, “Seeing how strong the demand is for our SKYACTIV technology and KODO-designed vehicles, we are even more devoted to bring in the latest brand new Mazda units on the road so that more people can enjoy Mazda’s Zoom-Zoom spirit.”
Starting with the new Mazda6 executive sedan last year, followed closely by the CX5 AWD Sport and CX5 PRO crossovers, and recently the all new Mazda3 compact car—the response from the customers has exponentially grown the brand since BAP started its operations more than a year ago.
With 962 units sold, the sales numbers for the most recent quarter—Q3 2014—is the highest for a sales quarter in Mazda Philippines’s history. The all-new Mazda3 is the bestselling Mazda, while the Mazda2 subcompact, first launched in 2010, and refreshed in 2012, continues to be an exceptionally strong performer as it registers its second highest-ever monthly sales record just this September, despite having only the 1.3L hatchback and sedan available on sale.
The current product line-up of Mazda Philippines includes the Mazda2 subcompact sedan and hatchback, the recently launched all-new Mazda3 SKYACTIV compact sedan and hatchback, the Mazda6 executive sedan, the CX-5 compact SUV, the CX-9 seven-seater SUV, the MX-5 2-seater sports roadster and the BT-50 pickup truck.
