The fourth edition of the annual Malaysia Autoshow will be held from 26th to 29th April, 2018. For the second year running, the venue will be at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS). Malaysia Automotive Institute (MAI) is confident to attract more visitors to this year's event, which promises a more comprehensive and immersive experience.
The decision to move the Malaysia Autoshow to the first half of year was made in light of the world's major autoshows, such as global motor shows in Tokyo, Frankfurt and Paris which are held in the second half of the year. The new April dates take the Malaysia Autoshow out of the packed second half calendar to allow room for the availability of better displays at the show from around the globe in the future, such as concept vehicles and latest technology related to transportation and mobility.
MAI Chief Executive Officer Dato Madani Saha said that the decision to move the event to MAEPS last year proved to bring a wider array of attractions and new experiences to visitors, as the 2017 edition recorded more than 250,000 visitors.
''The expansive venue facilitated longer test drives routes and allowed many exciting outdoor activities to be carried out by the participating brands, especially to demonstrate the various features in their products to visitors. These first-hand experiences for customers certainly contributed to the record-breaking sales, as well as a better outlook of what Malaysia's automotive industry can offer to consumers today's he said.
Some of the biggest automotive brands in the country will be taking part in this year's show with the theme ‘360-degree Mobility Experience’. More than 100 cars comprising some of the latest models in the market and Volvo classic cars will be on display.
