In a groundbreaking move set to transform Malaysia’s automotive landscape, Tan Chong Motor Group has officially introduced the TQ WULING brand, marking a new era of accessible, sustainable vehicles in the region. This exciting collaboration with SAIC GM Wuling Automobile Co Ltd (SGM Wuling), a prominent Chinese automaker, blends cutting-edge electric vehicle (EV) technology with the vast local manufacturing expertise of Tan Chong, laying the foundation for a greener, more innovative future in Malaysian transportation.
The strategic partnership was formalized by Tan Chong’s Group CEO, Daniel Ho, alongside key representatives from SGM Wuling, including Tang Wensheng, President of PT SGMW Motor Indonesia, and Sun Dazhi, Commercial Director of Overseas Business and Engineering Center, SGMW. The launch event, officiated by Yang Berhormat Tuan Loke Siew Fook, Malaysia’s Minister of Transport, underscores the significance of this collaboration for the country’s automotive sector.
The collaboration highlights a major milestone for Malaysia’s automotive industry, combining Tan Chong’s vast production capabilities with SGM Wuling’s innovative technologies. The result: TQ WULING—a new local marque that promises to deliver high-quality vehicles tailored to Malaysian needs. This marks a key step towards not only expanding the availability of green mobility solutions but also contributing to Malaysia’s economic growth through local vehicle production and the creation of jobs.
The first vehicle under the TQ WULING brand is the much-anticipated Bingo EV, an affordable and stylish electric vehicle designed to meet the needs of urban drivers. With a focus on efficiency, advanced technology, and sustainability, the TQ WULING Bingo will offer Malaysians an environmentally friendly option that does not compromise on performance or style. Priced below RM100,000, this compact EV is set to revolutionize the Malaysian market when it launches in Q4 2025, making EV ownership more accessible than ever before.
The TQ WULING Bingo, along with future models, will be locally assembled at Tan Chong Motor Group’s Segambut manufacturing facility, reinforcing the group’s commitment to local production and contributing to the reduction of supply chain costs. With over 50 years of experience in the automotive industry, Tan Chong’s facility has a long history of delivering high-quality vehicles, backed by internationally recognized certifications such as the ISO 9002 Quality Management System.
The introduction of the TQ WULING Bingo aligns directly with Malaysia’s National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR) and Low Carbon Mobility Blueprint, strengthening the nation’s push for a greener future. Tan Chong Motor Group’s efforts go beyond manufacturing, as the company collaborates with government bodies and infrastructure partners to expand EV charging networks, making sustainable driving solutions more accessible across the country.
The launch of TQ WULING signals a bright future for Malaysia’s automotive sector. By offering innovative, locally assembled EVs, Tan Chong Motor Group is poised to drive the nation’s green mobility transition while boosting the local economy through job creation, knowledge transfer, and supply chain development. As TQ WULING expands, it is set to play a pivotal role in the continued growth of Malaysia’s automotive industry.
