KUALA LUMPUR: GGR Legacy (M) Sdn Bhd, also known as GGR Motor, has revealed its first locally designed and assembled long-range electric motorcycle prototypes.
Both the Pantera R1 and Pantera R2 are said to be capable of travelling up to 300km on a full charge.
Unveiled during the MARA Automotive Ecosystem (MATEC 2025) event in Bukit Jalil, the two were developed to showcase local engineering and innovation, and are designed to match the performance and reliability of international electric vehicle (EV) products.
Both motorcycles are powered by a 5,000W hub motor paired with a Votol Controller and can reach top speeds between 110kph and 150kph.
Each of them are equipped with two 73.8V / 116Ah batteries that support fast charging - allowing them a full charge within 30 minutes per battery.
It has a flexible battery system that allows users to either charge at home or swap batteries at designated stations.
To facilitate this, GGR Motor is seeking partnerships with corporate and retail chains such as convenience stores, cafes, and fuel stations.
The company plans to expand the charging and swapping network by introducing two types of facilities to offer users greater flexibility.
One is swap stations for battery exchanges and the other are charging stations compatible with standard electric car chargers.
GGR Motor also plans to introduce a new 'subscription swap station' business model which will allow local entrepreneurs to operate swap stations under the GGR brand and earn commissions from each battery exchange.
The company wants to involve more businesses in hosting swap and charging stations with the hopes it'll accelerate Malaysia’s transition towards electric mobility.
The goal is to create a nationwide EV ecosystem through public-private partnerships.
By extension, GGR Motor is positioning the Pantera range as a cost-effective and practical solution for e-hailing riders and micro-entrepreneurs.
With maintenance already kept to a minimum since they do not require oil changes or engine servicing as e-bikes, the company estimates that switching to electric motorcycles could reduce daily operating costs by up to 60% for delivery and ride-hailing riders.
The company is looking to introduce easy financing schemes with low deposits and flexible monthly instalments to improve accessibility.
Price-wise the company aims to position the models, whose price has yet to be announced, competitively against mid-range petrol motorcycles when it is launched.
The launch will take place in two phases.
First the company will focus on developing a nationwide network of battery swap and charging stations from now until this December.
This will then be followed by the opening of pre-orders for e-hailing riders and the public from January 2026 onwards.
Sales will begin only after the supporting infrastructure is ready to ensure users can charge or swap batteries conveniently.
For now spare parts and aftersales support for customers are set up in two locations within the country.
GGR Motor Supermarket in Sungai Penchala will be catering to those in the Klang Valley, while PMH Motor Sdn Bhd in Alor Setar has been appointed as the master dealer for the northern region.
