As its name implies, Hypercasting refers to Korea’s interpretation of the aluminum die-casting technology used to make vehicle body, popularized by Tesl

Kia dealers have notified customers that prices of the 2023 Kia EV6 is now RM 19k more expensive, starting from RM 319,668 for the sole all-wheel drive GT-Line variant in Malaysia.

Anyone with enough money can buy off-the-shelf batteries, infotainment, all the associated software, and contract a factory to build an EV. But craftsmen and artists will tell you that the easier a task, the easier it is to separate those who really know what they are doing from those who don’t. Confused? Step away

The current import and excise tax exemptions for battery electric vehicles (battery EVs) is set to expire by 31-December 2023. The Malaysia Automotive Association (MAA) is of the opinion that the exemption period, which was announced in Budget 2022, is too short to see any meaningful investments into EVs. “We seek extension of full import and excise tax exemption for CBU EVs while the market is preparing for the growth of EVs in Malaysia.
