KLIMS 2026: Toyota presents hybrid, EV and futuristic concept cars!Follow BitAuto Malaysia for the latest KLIMS updates! -
KLIMS 2026: Jetour VT9 Gives the Brand a Practical Seven-Seat SUV BaseAt KLIMS 2026, the Jetour VT9 should be understood differently from the T2 and T2 i-DM. The T2 carries the boxy outdoor image, while the T2 i-DM gives Jetour an electrified talking point. The VT9 has a quieter but more commercial job. It is the model that places Jetour into Malaysia's everyday seven-seat family SUV conversation. -
KLIMS 2026: MG Cyberster Tests Malaysia's Appetite for an Electric RoadsterMalaysia's electric vehicle market has filled up rapidly with family SUVs and hatchbacks over the past two years, yet the two-seater convertible segment remains largely untouched. The MG Cyberster at KLIMS 2026 is less about immediate volume and more about staking a claim at the top of the brand's pricing and capability ladder. With MG Malaysia's current lineup dominated by mass-market models like -
KLIMS 2026: Bookings now opened for Zeekr 009 Grand in Malaysia, est. RM 600,000Zeekr isn’t slowing down with its luxury launches; at the ongoing 2026 Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (2026 KLIMS), Geely’s luxury arm in Malaysia has showcased the top-of-the-line Zeekr 009 Grand. -
KLIMS 2026: Jetour G700 Tests Hybrid Off-Road Tech in Malaysia’s Premium SUV SpaceThe Jetour G700’s presence at KLIMS 2026 is less about winning a specification sheet battle and more about introducing a Chinese hybrid off-road technical playbook into Malaysia’s full-size SUV segment, a category long dominated by large-displacement naturally aspirated Japanese stalwarts. As emissions rules and daily fuel costs climb, traditional ladder-frame four-wheel-drive hardware remains mec -
KLIMS 2026: Jetour T2 i-DM Adds Plug-In Hybrid Logic to the Rugged SUV StoryAt KLIMS 2026, the Jetour T2 i-DM gives the brand’s boxy SUV story a more relevant electrified angle. The standard T2 has already established Jetour’s rugged-lifestyle image in Malaysia, but the i-DM version shifts the discussion beyond styling. According to Jetour’s global specification page, the T2 i-DM uses a 1.5-litre turbocharged plug-in hybrid powertrain paired with a 3DHT hybrid transmissio -

KLIMS 2026: Jetour Dashing and the Entry-Lifestyle SUV BetThe Jetour Dashing arrives at KLIMS 2026 with a clear, if understated, mission. While the brand’s recent buzz has centred on the rugged T2 and the freshly debuted T1, the Dashing remains the lifestyle-oriented entry point in Jetour Malaysia’s listed range. It is the model tasked with introducing the brand’s bold design language to buyers who want an urban SUV silhouette without committing to the b -
KLIMS 2026: Jetour T1 and the Value SUV OffensiveThe Jetour T1 lands at KLIMS 2026 only weeks after the T2’s official Malaysian launch, confirming that the brand is executing a rapid-fire SUV rollout rather than a cautious market probe. While the T2 channels a boxy, rugged aesthetic aimed at lifestyle buyers, the T1 presents a more conventional SUV silhouette that should feel at home in suburban driveways and corporate parking bays. This one-two -
KLIMS 2026: Second-gen MG ZS shown, launch finally underway?MG Malaysia has showcased the second-generation MG ZS at the ongoing 2026 Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (2026 KLIMS). This marks the second time the MG ZS has been shown here, with the first being two years ago at the same event. -
KLIMS 2026: MG IM6 is here to challenge the Tesla Model Y and Xpeng X6Alongside the MG ZS (in Hybrid+ forms), MG Malaysia also showcased the MG IM6 at the ongoing 2026 Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (2026 KLIMS). -
KLIMS 2026: Boxy SUV galore: This is the Haval H7 PHEV and it is Malaysia-boundAt the ongoing 2026 Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (2026 KLIMS), GWM Malaysia has previewed the Haval H7 Hi4 PHEV, alongside the Ora 5 HEV. If you’re keeping track, the H7 Hi4 PHEV is almost a direct rival to the Jetour T2 i-DM. -
KLIMS 2026: ORA 5 HEV Expands GWM's Urban Hybrid StoryAt KLIMS 2026, the ORA 5 HEV is more than another compact crossover on the GWM stand. In Malaysia, ORA has been understood mainly through the Good Cat, a design-led urban EV with a distinct personality. The ORA 5 HEV pushes that identity into a broader direction. It keeps the brand's emphasis on styling, technology and young urban lifestyles, but changes the powertrain discussion from battery-elec -
KLIMS 2026: Hyundai Tucson and the Mainstream SUV ResetHyundai’s Malaysian narrative has entered a new chapter. After years of operation through Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors and Inokom assembly in Kulim dating back to 2004, the brand established Hyundai Motor Malaysia in 2025 as a direct local entity. The Tucson arrives at KLIMS 2026 as a beneficiary of this dual heritage: it carries the distribution legacy of Sime Motors while falling under the strategi -
KLIMS 2026: Hyundai Santa Fe and the Mainstream SUV ResetThe Hyundai Santa Fe presented at KLIMS 2026 arrives at a moment when the Korean brand’s Malaysian operation is undergoing its most significant restructuring in years. With Hyundai Motor Malaysia now established as a direct local entity, yet still supported by the Sime Motors distribution network and Inokom’s assembly heritage in Kulim, the Santa Fe must perform the dual role of product and brand -
KLIMS 2026: Haval H6 HEV and the Hybrid Mainstream TestGWM’s presence at KLIMS 2026 tells a different story than it did two years ago. The brand has moved beyond being an ORA electric hatchback importer and is now pitching itself as a full-spectrum new-energy player. The Haval H6 HEV sits at the centre of this transformation. It is not a battery-electric vehicle, nor is it a plug-in hybrid. It is a self-charging hybrid SUV aimed squarely at Malaysian -
KLIMS 2026: This Perodua C2 Concept is secretly a QV-E SedanSurprising as it may seem, but you’re looking at a very early version of what is very likely the Perodua QV-E Sedan. -
KLIMS 2026: GWM Tank 500 and the Rugged Seven-Seat PropositionGWM’s stand at KLIMS 2026 makes one thing clear: the brand is no longer content with city-focused electric hatchbacks and mainstream hybrid crossovers. By bringing the Tank 500 into the Malaysian exhibition hall, GWM is signalling its intent to compete in the large, body-on-frame SUV space that has long been dominated by Japanese and American nameplates. The Tank 500 arrives not as a tentative exp
