AS the global automotive market shifts towards renewable energy and sustainability, car manufacturers are increasingly recognising the importance of understanding local markets and making long-term commitments.
Great Wall Motor (GWM), one of China's leading automobile manufacturers, is known for its superior performance and innovative technology.
Its rapid global expansion, driven by a focus on localisation, has earned the company worldwide recognition.
Today, GWM Malaysia celebrates a milestone with the launch of its first "completely knocked down" (CKD) model — the GWM HAVAL H6 Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV). This launch underscores GWM's long-term commitment to the Malaysian market.
By assembling the GWM HAVAL H6 at a local plant, GWM is not only introducing cutting-edge manufacturing technology, but also bolstering the Malaysian manufacturing industry. This initiative strengthens the local economy and creates job opportunities for the Malaysian workforce.
GWM Malaysia's collaboration with EP Manufacturing Berhad highlights Malaysia as a key market and a strategic base for vehicle manufacturing.
This partnership allows for the adoption of advanced manufacturing techniques, facilitating Malaysia's integration into the global supply chain.
VERSATILE FAMILY-SIZED SUV
Amid the global transition to new energy vehicles, the GWM HAVAL H6 HEV emerges as a standout family-sized SUV, boasting a horsepower of 243PS and 530Nm of torque.
With a range of up to 1,000 kilometres on a single tank and exceptional fuel efficiency of just 5.8 litres per 100 kilometres, it perfectly aligns with modern demands for fuel economy and environmental sustainability.
Recognised as the "Best-selling SUV in China" for over nine consecutive years, the HAVAL H6 HEV combines impressive performance with advanced safety features, including a Level 2 Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS).
Whether navigating urban streets or tackling rugged terrain, the GWM HAVAL H6 HEV provides a comfortable, intelligent, and secure driving experience, earning the trust of over four million users worldwide.
LONG-TERM Commitment
In addition to the HAVAL H6 HEV, GWM Malaysia has introduced other models, including the retro-futuristic GWM ORA GOOD CAT, the stylish GWM ORA 07, and the rugged off-road GWM TANK 300.
As the first locally assembled model, the HAVAL H6 HEV is set to be a high-quality offering in the Malaysian market, representing GWM's commitment to building a sustainable operational model.
GWM Malaysia plans to expand its presence by establishing more showrooms and service centres nationwide, ensuring a steady supply of spare parts and high-quality after-sales service.
This demonstrates the brand's confidence in the local market.
