Sime Darby Motors set a record-breaking feat with its delivery of 1,000 cars in 100 days. Held at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium carpark, the special historical moment was celebrated together with the first 1,000 BYD owners in Malaysia at the one-of-a-kind mass delivery event. This marks another success for Sime Darby Motors, following its delivery of 100 units within the first 10 days of the BYD launch in Malaysia.
Customers from all over Malaysia attended this event, with fun-filled exclusive activities for BYD owners only. Live band and energetic performances kept the new car owners entertained, while lucky customers also took home exciting prizes as part of a lucky draw.
Jeffrey Gan, Managing Director of Retail and Distribution of Sime Darby Motors Malaysia, Hong Kong and Macau, said, “This celebration marks a milestone in Malaysia’s electric vehicle (EV) market, setting a precedent that reflects the increasing popularity and acceptance of EV in the country. We are pleased to sustain the momentum of our BYD ATTO 3 deliveries to customers and today’s occasion is a celebration for all the new car owners. We look forward to continue driving EV demand across our market segments.”
Commenting on the momentous occasion, Eagle Zhao, Managing Director of BYD Malaysia Sdn Bhd and PT BYD Motor Indonesia said, “Today’s achievement of a record-breaking feat is testament to the strong partnership with Sime Darby Motors and we are optimistic on the growth prospects of EV in Malaysia. We hope the new BYD owners enjoyed their one-of-a-kind experience with us today and we look forward to continue bringing in even better new energy technology and products to Malaysia in the future. This will offer Malaysians the opportunity to revel in the advantage and fun of EV.”
