Renault Malaysia Confirms Prices Remain Unchanged In 2016

“While we are not immune to the challenges facing the automotive industry, we are happy to announce that there will be no price increase despite the current economic environment. With forward planning, optimising operation efficiencies and cost management exercises conducted internally, we are able to manage the cost to consumers at this point,” said Kuan Kim Luen, CEO, TC Euro Cars Sdn Bhd.
