BMW Group Malaysia outstanding EV deliveries, new unlimited charging packages, ‘Forwardism, by BMW’ and more

KUALA LUMPUR: BMW Group Malaysia has achieved a milestone by taking the lead as Malaysia's best Premium EV provider. The company successfully delivered more than 1,600 units of BMW, MINI and BMW Motorrad EV in the first eight months of this year, solidifying its position in the market. With this, the company surpassed its tally of 1,557 units of MINI and BMW EVs delivered in 2022.

Hans de Visser, Managing Director of BMW Group Malaysia, said, "At the heart of our vision for an Electric Future lies a profound commitment to electrification that seeks to reshape the future of mobility, where sustainability, luxury, and innovation converge. In an era marked by the imperative to transform, we are thrilled to lead the charge in Malaysia's electrification journey – bolstered by the support of our loyal customers, dealers, and partners alike. This achievement commemorates our lead, not just in the premium EV segment but also the overall EV ecosystem in the country."

BMW Group Malaysia is trying to address the charging and range concerns of Malaysian EV owners in Malaysia by expanding its partnership with Gentari. Both organizations have collaborated to bring Charge Go to life- a breakthrough mobile EV charging service that facilitates on-the-go DC fast charging.

De Visser emphasized, "We are thrilled to bring our mobile charging vehicle concept – one that we unveiled earlier this year, to life with Gentari. Our partnerships with key players like them underscore our belief that industry-wide collaboration is the engine driving the transformation towards an Electric Future. We hope to inspire more players in this field to elevate their commitment to electrification, collectively enriching the local EV ecosystem. This collaboration will be made available towards the end of 2023."

Shah Yang Razalli, Deputy CEO of Gentari and CEO of Gentari Green Mobility Sdn Bhd said, "The launch of Charge Go with BMW is another innovative solution that exemplifies Gentari's customer-centricity. This mobile charging solution is a product of the collective effort amongst local industry players, including SMEs, to strengthen the local EV ecosystem in coming up with our very own locally designed solution in this space.  This solution, the first of many to come from Gentari, aims to bolster range confidence, making the transition to EVs an easy one." 

BMW Group Malaysia has partnered with local charging providers to celebrate its EV success. It is now offering limited-edition unlimited-charging packages for MINI and BMW EV owners until December 31, 2023. The package can be availed by the first two hundred registrants at RM1,800 for MINI and RM2,400 for BMW owners.
