GWM Malaysia Adds More 4S Centres To Dealer Network
GWM Malaysia has added more 4S centres to its expanding dealer network with the opening of 2 new centres i.e. in Butterworth, Penang, and in Seremban, Negri Sembilan. The pair of new 4S outlets are operated by GWM’s dealer partners CS Euro Auto Sdn Bhd and Seremban Victory Credit Sdn Bhd respectively.
Both 4S centres boast spacious showrooms which can accommodate a wide range of GWM new energy vehicles, allowing visitors to explore the latest models in a comfortable environment. With multiple staff allocated at both 4S centres and a dedicated service area which includes multiple service bays, customers can be assured of efficient maintenance and prompt service. GWM’s genuine spare parts also ensure the longevity and performance of the vehicles, to give customers better peace of mind and ownership experience.
The GWM 4S in Butterworth has a built-up area of approximately 25,000 sq ft and can display up to 5 vehicles. It is manned by a team of 17, and has 6 service bays. Meanwhile, the GWM 4S in Seremban has about 11,000 sq ft of built-up space with a showroom area large enough for 5 display vehicles. Serving customers here is a team of 12 employees. There are 4 bays in the service area. Both dealerships provide complimentary WiFi, a meeting room, open lounge area, gaming area, as well as complimentary coffee & snacks.
“I am grateful to have YB Anthony Loke, Minister of Transport, here to witness this significant milestone of GWM in Malaysia,” commented Mike Cui, Managing Director of GWM Malaysia, at the official launch of the Seremban Victory Credit GWM 4S outlet. The opening of the 4S service centre in Seremban is a strategic move to cater for people moving from cities to suburban areas, especially Seremban where the population has grown significantly. Penang too, is one of the major cities which is expected to see a rapidly growing EV infrastructure.
These new additions to GWM’s sales and service network reflect the brand’s dedication to expanding its reach and enhancing customer satisfaction. By establishing more service centres, GWM aims to provide convenient access to support services for both existing and future GWM owners.
As part of the government’s commitment to a greener future, YB Anthony Loke recently mentioned that the proposed tax structure aims to encourage people to embrace electric vehicles (EVs). He acknowledged concerns regarding the potential increase in road tax for EVs after the current exemption policy expires in 2025. However, he assured that the government intends to align its policies with the goal of promoting EV adoption in Malaysia as part of its sustainability objectives. To address these concerns, he plans to provide clear and transparent information on how the road tax will be calculated, offering direct answers to potential buyers soon.
One of the key highlights of the GWM Seremban 4S centre is its focus on EV adoption, catering to the increasing demand for GWM electric vehicle owners in the state. The centre will offer GWM’s latest line-up of new energy vehicles and aftersales service support, as per GWM’s commitment to supporting the Malaysian government’s efforts to become a carbon-neutral nation as early as 2050. This initiative aligns with the government’s plans to encourage EV adoption which is targeted to reach 15% total industry volume (TIV) for EVs and hybrids by 2030.
GWM Malaysia will continue build up a strong service network and offer comprehensive aftersales support in order to build confidence among consumers.
