KUALA LUMPUR: BMW Group Malaysia has unveiled two new DC Fast Chargers at Tian Siang Premium Auto Butterworth and Tian Siang Premium Auto Ipoh, as part of the charging infrastructure expansion strategy that complements Malaysia’s commitment towards accelerating the adoption of electrified mobility.

Also available for public use, the new DC Fast Chargers feature dual CCS-type outlets capable of up to 120kw.

BMW Group Malaysia managing director Hans de Visser said BMW's expansion plans for charging infrastructure network in Malaysia had been a success thus far, having made available eight BMW iCharging facilities at various authorised BMW dealerships in the first quarter of 2022 alone.

“By tackling common pain points of electric vehicle (EV) ownership in tandem with our electro-offensive this year, we are hopeful that the local perspective on electromobility will shift for the better,” he said.

Tian Siang Premium Auto dealer principal Tan Ka Kin said, “As an authorised BMW i dealer in the northern region of Malaysia, we are thrilled to provide even more accessibility to not only our customers but the growing community of EV owners in Penang and Perak.
