Angka-Tan Motor Sdn Bhd (ATM), an authorized distributor of Foton trucks in Malaysia redefines the urban logistics landscapes with the launch of the new Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT at the Malaysia Commercial Vehicle Expo 2026 (MCVE 2026) recently.
The Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT becomes the first Chinese-brand light-duty truck in Malaysia to be fitted with the Automated Manual Transmission (AMT), designed to deliver smoother gear shifts, reduced driver fatigue, and improved fuel economy in stop-and-go city operations.
It is introduced as a direct response to the increasing last-mile delivery pressure, need for fuel-efficient and driver-friendly trucks, as well as the demand for high uptime and reliability.
The new Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT features the renowned Cummins ISF 3.8-litre engine that is now rated with the advanced Euro 5 standards for cleaner emissions. The four-cylinder turbocharged engine produces 154 PS at 2,600 rpm and 500 Nm of torque from 1,200 to 1,900 rpm.
Power is transferred to the rear wheels via the new ZF six-speed AMT transmission that is engineered to improve productivity as well as operational efficiency. The Euro 5 engine and the new AMT powertrain combination focuses on providing low maintenance costs through long service interval and lower fuel consumption. The new AMT also enables business owners to widen their driver pool, including greater participation from female drivers.
In terms of utility, the new Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT is purpose-built for modern logistics, offering versatile cargo capabilities, practical design, and ease of operation. This allows businesses to handle various delivery operations with greater productivity and flexibility. The Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT measures 6,930 mm long, 2,060 mm wide, and 2,250 mm tall. It has a wheelbase of 3,800 mm with a gross vehicle weight (GVW) ranging from 7,500 kg to 9,900 kg.
Safety wise, the improved Aumark S is equipped with a number of advanced systems. This comprises of Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) for confidence-inspiring braking in all situations, Anti-Slip Regulation which modulates wheel spins on slippery surfaces for better control, and Hill Start Assist to prevent rollback on inclines to ensure smooth take-off and reduces driver strain.
A product of the “Super Truck Global Innovation Alliance”, the light-duty truck is also built on a rigid body structure that meets international standards such as ECE R29 which features a cab design that protects vehicle occupants. The reliability of Foton Aumark S has also been proven through real-world testing of over 3,000,000 km across diverse conditions.
The upgraded Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT is the latest addition in the lineup after the Foton Auman R Euro 5 AMT introduced in November last year, bringing the same step forward into the heavy-duty segment. The Auman R received the improved transmission for long-haul efficiency, smoother driving experience and enhanced reliability for fleet operations.
Together, these models represent a complete upgrade of Foton’s light-duty and heavy-duty range in Malaysia under the new AMT portfolio. This will also standardize driving experience across both vehicle classes with improved operational efficiency for urban and long-haul routes.
For businesses looking for fully-electric and zero emission solutions, the Foton eAumark supports in reducing their environmental impact while maintaining operational efficiency. Already part of Angka-Tan Motor’s product range, the eAumark is making the transition to greener fleets both achievable and practical. Meanwhile, the Foton Bus further broadens Angka-Tan Motor’s offering into people mobility. This positions Angka-Tan Motor at the centre of Malaysia’s urban logistics evolution.
Modern businesses require different solutions for different needs. The Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT will be suited for urban logistics, Foton Auman R Euro 5 AMT for long-haul transports, Foton eAumark for sustainable operations, and Foton Bus for people mobility. Angka-Tan Motor offers operators to build flexible, scalable, and future-ready fleets. This will enable operators in Malaysia to have the right vehicle for every job.
Foton’s range of commercial vehicles are built for real Malaysian operating conditions as they are engineered for urban congestion and narrow delivery routes, tropical climate and heavy usage cycles, as well as demanding logistics environments. The Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT is especially designed for high frequency delivery operations in Malaysia’s key urban centres.
James Tan, Chief Executive Officer of Warisan TC Holdings Berhad said, “This new addition represents our commitment to innovation and to delivering practical solutions that support businesses across the logistics and transportation ecosystem.”
He added, “Angka-Tan Motor also aims to strengthen its position in the commercial vehicle market, particularly within the light commercial vehicle segment. Our ambition is clear — to become a key player in the light commercial vehicle segment by capturing a significant market share and delivering products that meet the demands of modern businesses.”
This launch also marks a meaningful milestone as Angka-Tan Motor proudly commemorates its 15 remarkable years as the trusted distributor of Foton trucks in Malaysia, reflecting a long-standing commitment to supporting the nation’s transportation and logistics industry.
The new Foton Aumark S Euro 5 AMT is priced at MSRP of RM128,800. The light-duty truck is backed by an industry-leading six-year/300,000km warranty for absolute peace-of-mind. Interested parties are invited to visit Foton showrooms or call 03-56386888 for additional information.
On top of that, all Foton commercial vehicles in Malaysia come with the Foton Total Care, supported by Tan Chong Group’s service network.
