Car Manufacturer will invest more in Malaysia

Imported and branded cars are selling good in Malaysia.
Mercedes-Benz Malaysia is ready to invest more than RM280 million
for the next four years to enhance its presence in the country,
following a robust sales performance last year.

The German luxury car maker, a member of the Daimler Group,
has invested some RM500 million in the country for the past 10 years.

The new investment would be used to upgrade its production facility,
launch new models and enrich customer experience as well as looking
into the investment of its dealer network.

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia President and Chief Executive Officer,
Roland Folger said at a press conference after a briefing on its performance for 2014.

Last year, Mercedes-Benz turned in a record-breaking sales performance of
9,419 units of vehicles, posting a 17% increase over the preceding year.
Its new-generation flagship S-Class model,
which redefined the luxury benchmark, recorded sales of 635 units, a huge jump of 388% since 2013.

Last year Mercedes-Benz launched RM60 million Hap Seng Star Balakong Autohaus
and its RM15 million investment in Pekan production plant for the production of the
S400L Hybrid, in line with Malaysia’s aspiration
to be an energy-efficient vehicle hub.
