In line with the government’s implementation of the sales tax exemption on new cars from 15 June to 31 December 2020, TC Euro Cars (TCEC), the sole franchise holder for Renault vehicles in Malaysia, has revised the retail prices for its Renault models. For more savings, customers can also take advantage of additional online exclusives offered across the Renault line-up. The savings from the sales tax exemption will be fully passed on to customers for all registrations from 15 June 2020 onwards.
