BYD Sime Motors is celebrating a major milestone this year, marking three years since its arrival in Malaysia as the country’s leading electric vehicle (EV) brand. What began as a bold push into a growing segment has now flourished into a nationwide EV movement, with more than 25,000 BYD vehicles on Malaysian roads—each symbolizing a family choosing cleaner, smarter mobility for the future.

These 25,000 EVs represent more than just a sales achievement; they highlight the growing environmental consciousness among Malaysians. Collectively, BYD owners help reduce over 62,000 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually. To put that into perspective, that’s equivalent to planting nearly 2.5 million trees every year—enough to encircle Malaysia’s coastline more than six times. This substantial reduction illustrates the profound environmental impact BYD continues to drive across the country.

Over the past three years, BYD Sime Motors has built Malaysia’s largest fully electric vehicle portfolio, with seven models introduced to date. The BYD ATTO 3 stands out as the top performer in the competitive C-segment SUV category, while 2025 saw the arrival of two new models—the BYD ATTO 2 and BYD SEAL 6—alongside an upgraded BYD SEAL. The brand’s lineup now spans from entry-level to premium, and from sedans to SUVs to MPVs, giving Malaysians access to EV choices that balance innovation, safety, and affordability.

“These milestones are incredibly meaningful to us,” said Eagle Zhao, Managing Director of BYD Malaysia. “Having more than 25,000 Malaysians join the BYD family reflects the rapid growth of EV adoption in the country. Our mission to create a greener, smarter, and safer driving experience has guided us to this point, and we are deeply grateful for the trust we’ve earned. We look forward to continuing this journey and delivering more cutting-edge products and technology to Malaysia.”

Jeffrey Gan, Managing Director of Southeast Asia at Sime Motors, echoed this sentiment. “In just three years, BYD has become a core pillar of Sime Motors’ automotive strategy. Our robust sales and aftersales network, advanced facilities, and highly trained EV workforce have helped make electric mobility both accessible and practical for Malaysians. To all BYD owners, thank you for your continued trust—your ownership experience will always be our top priority.”

Supporting its growing customer base is BYD Sime Motors’ extensive nationwide infrastructure. With 39 sales and marketing outlets, 24 aftersales service centres, 12 authorised body and paint centres, and a centralised parts warehouse housing more than 4,600 line items, the company ensures fast and reliable support for every owner. A dedicated Training Centre has also equipped more than 1,000 local employees with specialised skills to uphold industry-leading standards.

Looking ahead, BYD Sime Motors is preparing for its next phase of growth. Its 2026 roadmap encompasses network expansion, deeper technology integration, and the establishment of local CKD assembly operations—initiatives poised to create sustainable value, enhance EV accessibility, and generate new job opportunities across Malaysia.

As the full tax exemption for fully imported EVs nears its year-end deadline, now is an ideal time for Malaysians to transition to electric. BYD Sime Motors is offering exclusive year-end promotions with savings of up to RM20,000 on selected models, giving prospective buyers an attractive incentive to join the country’s leading EV brand.
