Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia

Sempena pesta Volkswagen Festival 2018 yang akan berlangsung hujung minggu ini dari 12 hingga 14 Oktober 2018, Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) telah melancarkan satu siri edisi terhad JOIN khusus kepada mereka yang inginkan sesuatu yang lebih gah dan menyerlah. (more…)

Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) today announced the revised prices of all Volkswagen models with the implementation of the Sales and Service Tax (SST) on the 1st of September 2018. With the exception of CBU models, the new prices of Volkswagen cars are now lower than previous prices with 6% GST. Additionally, the VPCM Price Protection Scheme (PPS) is still applicable for all models registered by the 15th of November 2018 and while stocks last.  Since the introduction of PPS, VPCM has seen a rise in demand for Volkswagen models. While VPCM is doing its best to meet the demand, stocks are very limited and customers are urged to not delay placing their bookings.

Erik Winter, Managing Director of VPCM (above) said, “In line with the Government’s initiative, we are very pleased that the new tax structure has allowed us to be more competitive with our prices. With the new tax structure, the reduction of Volkswagen prices ranges from 1.5% (for the Tiguan Comfortline) to 2.6% (for the Vento Highline) compared against the previous tax structure with GST. We believe that the new prices, as well as our recently-introduced Price Protection Scheme (PPS) makes owning a Volkswagen even more attractive to Malaysians.” 

Below is a comparison on prices of the locally assembled (CKD) models and total savings under the PPS:

A first-of-its-kind platform in Malaysia, Volkswagen Marketplace launches with an exclusive online-only deal on only 20 units of the Passat 1.8TSI Trendline Cyber.

These units are offered at an amazing online price of RM135,888 and comes with 5-year free maintenance, and 1-year free insurance. Customers will also be able to enjoy a low interest rate of 0.88% per annum on the Passat 1.8TSI Trendline Cyber.

This combination provides an output of 180PS and torque of 250Nm between 1,250rpm and 5,000rpm. Four colours are available for the Passat – Pure White, Deep Black, Indium Grey and Reflex Silver.

To make a booking, customers just need to follow a few simple steps to select their model, preferred dealer and submit in their details. A reservation will need to be accompanied by a credit card payment of RM1,500 (reservation fee), this amount will be deducted from the total price of the selected car. A Volkswagen sales representative will be in touch with the new owner to finalise the purchase until the car is fully registered and ready for collection.

Erik Winter, Managing Director of VPCM said that the idea of creating an e-platform such as Volkswagen Marketplace had been in the pipeline for some time, and the recent success of VPCM’s partnership with Lazada further spurred the idea. “The rise of e-commerce has changed the way people shop, and selling 12 Beetles on Lazada in just 20 minutes confirmed our belief that Malaysians are ready and receptive to buying cars online. This as an important development for the brand and we are very excited to be able to bring Volkswagen Marketplace to Malaysia. Volkswagen Marketplace is a permanent platform for us, and we will be regularly updating it with new offers, so interested customers should definitely keep on a lookout for them”

The Volkswagen Marketplace is easy and simple to use. These are the five simple steps to follow once the customer logs on to the Marketplace.

Step 1: Select Volkswagen model.

Step 2: Select the preferred dealership.

Step 3: Enter customer details to continue with the reservation.

A list of the revised Service Maintenance Schedules for all current and previous Volkswagen models sold in Malaysia can be found in detail on the official Volkswagen website. The revised Service Maintenance Schedule is only applicable to models sold by the manufacturer, and does not cover models imported via unauthorized distributors.

This revised Service Maintenance Schedule is implemented, due to extended replacement intervals of certain components. This translates into better savings for the owner. However, Volkswagen technicians will still perform routine checks, as part of the standard service process and will advise accordingly, if any parts replacement is required.

Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) is now accepting bookings for the new Volkswagen Golf variants at all Volkswagen dealerships nationwide. The Golf family consists of the Golf TSI in Sportline and R-Line, the iconic Golf GTI and performance-driven Golf R.

The new Golf family retains the charisma of past models with the unmistakeable design, and has been updated with details such as redesigned bumpers, new conceptualised headlights and LED tail lights. Here’s a quick 2-minute 360-degree video of the new Golf family:

 

Launched in 1974, the Golf is the Volkswagen brand’s most successful model, and has played a major role in the automotive industry by setting standards in the compact class and pioneering the advancement of leading vehicle technologies. It has won numerous awards, including “Compact Family Car of the Year” by UK’s Auto Express, and “Best Small Car” in the 2017 Daily News Autos Award.

Recognised the world over, the first Golf GTI invented the hot hatch category when it was launched. No surprise then that it was awarded as the “Most Influential Car of All Time” by UK motoring magazine Autocar UK.

The ultimate performance hatch, the Golf R has set and broken numerous track records around the world. On the road and track, its appeal lies in the fact that it is one of the most well-rounded cars available in the market.

To date, more than 34 million units of the Golf in its different body variants have been produced and sold around the world. A new Golf was built, purchased and delivered every 40 seconds, on average, over the past four decades.

Erik Winter, Managing Director of VPCM (above & below) is confident that the new Golf family will be well-received in Malaysia as it already has a strong local following. “With the introduction of four variants, there is a Golf for everyone. We are certain that the range will fulfil the expectations and desires of Golf fans here in Malaysia” he added.

VPCM is also offering Malaysians the chance to win an all-expense paid trip to the Wörthersee GTI Festival in Austria. The contest is currently ongoing and will end on the 27th of March 2018. Details can be found at the Volkswagen Malaysia website.

Members of the public will have the opportunity to view the new Golf GTI and Golf R at the upcoming Volkswagen Tours. The GTI will be on display at AEON Bandar Dato Onn in Johor Bahru, on the 27th March till 1st April, while the Golf R will make its local debut at 1 Utama Shopping Centre from 28 March till 1 April 2018.
