I won't say they are CKD. They are locally made cars.

To put into perspective, yes it is CKD. Only few early batches of those rebadge might be CBU. laugh.gif

IMO those rebadge is considered CKD, since the power window problem already exist since the re-badge era. I don't think JDM Mitsubishi got this kind of problem.  hmm.gif

Back to topic

CKD = Complete Knock Down

Means the parts are imported from overseas and assembled locally.

Perodua might be considered CKD also, since using toyota engine and gearbox.

Proton, most of the part are local, but some part (CVT gearbox) is supplied by overseas supplier, not sure its CKD or not.  hmm.gif

How you knows non-proton/perodua using non-local parts? Only imported?

Local vendors who supplied parts to CKD cars, same supplier to proton as well. laugh.gif

What i mean CKD was a whole set of parts import from other country. But in Malaysia the CKD is confusing, as most of them had to use localized parts to lower the tax charged by Malaysia Government. IMO they should be called as Semi Knock Down SKD

Knockdown kit

Ya, some CKD car really share the same local supplier with Proton. I see my non P1/P2 brand car tempered glass is using the same brand as the one found on P1 & P2.  shocking.gif

Proton i think should be considered as local made.

Once car been declared as CKD, overtime it will use local vendors. That is how our NAP works. More local vendors involve, meaning more incentive. How many percent, we wouldnt know. This is to maximize profit, to reduce the excise tax. But of course, consumer keep paying on same price. brows.gif
