New BMW DC fast chargers at Tian Siang Premium Auto

KUALA LUMPUR: With the tax breaks on EVs in place, the demand for zero-emission vehicles in the country is set to grow over the next few years. This in turn will also raise the need for more public charging locations. In an attempt to fulfill the upcoming demand, the automakers are installing their DC charges across the country one after another. The recent ones are the two EV fast chargers installed by BMW at Tian Siang Premium Auto dealerships in Butterworth and Ipoh. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Where are the new BMW DC Fast Chargers located?

    The new BMW DC Fast Chargers are located at Tian Siang Premium Auto dealerships in Butterworth and Ipoh.
  • How long does it take to charge the BMW iX at the new DC Fast Charger facility?

    The new BMW DC fast charger incorporates dual CCS-type outlets capable of up to 120 kW, which can charge the BMW iX from 10% to 80% in less than 40 minutes.
  • The DC fast chargers are part of the brand’s charging infrastructure expansion strategy, which is in line with the country’s commitment to accelerate the adoption of electric mobility.

    Available for public use, BMW’s new DC fast chargers in the northern region incorporate dual CCS-type outlets capable of up to 120 kW, which can charge two EVs simultaneously. Using these DC outlets, the charging of BMW cars, including iX and iX3 can go from 10% to 80% in less than 40 minutes.

    “Our expansion plans for our network of charging infrastructure in Malaysia has been a success thus far, having made available 8 BMW i Charging facilities at various authorised BMW dealerships in the first quarter of 2022 alone,” said BMW Group Malaysia Managing Director, Hans de Visser.

    “By tackling common pain points of electric vehicle (EV) ownership in tandem with our electro-offensive this year, we are hopeful that the local perspective on electromobility will shift for the better,” he said.

    Tian Siang Premium Auto Dealer Principal, Tan Ka Kin added, “As an authorised BMW i dealer in the northern region of Malaysia, we are thrilled to provide even more accessibility to not only our customers but the growing community of EV owners in Penang and Perak.”

    “The addition of these new DC Fast Chargers at our own dealerships allows us to further deliver the Premium Ownership Experience to our customers here, on top of the many BMW i charging facilities we have previously made available, in partnership with BMW Group Malaysia, across the northern region.”
