31 Aug 2021|1,604 views
Porsche is expanding its footprint in the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) region by setting up an assembly facility in Malaysia together with its long-standing partner Sime Darby Berhad.
The site will be responsible for the final assembly of specific models soley for the Malaysian market from 2022 onwards. This facility will operate alongside Porsche's established European network of production sites.
For the last 10 years, Porsche has enjoyed a close and trustful relationship with Sime Darby Berhad as the exclusive importer and distributor for the brand's sports cars. That partnership, coupled with a growing and dedicated Porsche fan-base in Malaysia has delivered impressive results even in challenging conditions, as reflected in a 9.0% increase in deliveries in 2020. Porsche states that as a founding state of the ASEAN bloc, Malaysia offers significant business opportunities and a well-established automotive landscape.
The move comes as part of Porsche's efforts to grow its capacities in the region, which include the development of a new permanent research and development satellite in China, as well as the implementation of this region's first cross-border high performance charging network, in cooperation with Shell.
