UMW Toyota hikes prices from January 1, 2016 - all models in Malaysia affected


New prices for all UMW Toyota models in Malaysia, effective January 1, 2016 have been announced. As you can see in our table above, all models and variants (except for the Camry Hybrid) see an increase, ranging from RM3,170 to RM9,598. We’ve also included the official price lists of all models below. 

The Vios range, for instance, goes up by 3.2% to 4.3%, while the Hilux line-up suffered the most, up between 5.8% to 8.6%. Only variant left unchanged is the Camry Hybrid, which retains its pricing into 2016.

Back in October 2015, UMW Toyota announced that its prices would go up come the new year, citing the sharp depreciation of the Malaysian ringgit against the US dollar. It was mentioned then that the hikes would be between 4% to 16%. Thankfully, however, the biggest increase now stands at 8.6%. 

It’s also worth mentioning that the Toyota Alphard MPV has disappeared from the UMW Toyota website. Is this a sign that the new third-generation model will be introduced here soon?

Other than Toyota, new 2016 prices for three other makes have been unveiled so far – check out Honda, Peugeot and Kia.
