News: MAA will organise the MY AUTO FEST from 20-22 May 2016 at the Mines International Exhibition and Convention Centre

The Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA)  will be organising a sales and promotion oriented auto exhibition called "My Auto Fest" at the Mines International Exhibition and Convention Centre (MIECC) from 20 - 22 May. The purpose of the event was that many of MAA's car company members felt that they should organise sales-oriented and promotion event to encourage better auto sales leading up to the  Hari Raya festive  season.

The organisers target to have 20 car brands with over 100 car models to be made available for viewing, test drives and sales during the 3-day My Auto Fest. We have not been briefed on which of the car companies that will be participating but expect many of the more popular brands. 

Aside from the car companies, several activities are being drawn up for show patrons and their families. These include test drives, lucky draws, lifestyle booths, food trucks and F&B kiosks, and children’s games and activities. Entrance to the Auto Fest is free of charge.

I suppose this is all good news to those who just want to view lots of cars in one place. I may head over there myself if time permits.

My Auto Fest promises the best car deals for the coming festive season

Car buyers on the look out for great discounts and attractive offers on

the latest models will be in for a treat when the inaugural My Auto Fest

2016 makes its debut on the third weekend of May.

To be held at the Mines International Exhibition and Convention Centre

(MIECC) on May 20-22, the event is organised by the Malaysian

Automotive Association (MAA).

 “Many car companies  recently announced car price increases due to

the depreciation of the Malaysian ringgit.

“The MAA Council, with the support of leading car manufacturers,

distributors and dealers in the country,  felt that we should organize a

sales-oriented and promotion event to encourage better auto sales

leading up to the  Hari Raya festive  season,” said MAA  president Datuk

Aishah Ahmad.

“If you're going to buy a car anyway, then book your car at the show for

the best deal in town and get your car in time for the five-day Hari Raya

public holiday season starting on Wednesday July 6.

“We are expecting participating car companies to provide generous

offers and substantial discounts to benefit car buyers in all segments at

this inaugural Auto Fest and to boost consumers’ sentiment.

“These offers can be in the form of direct discounts, a subsidy for

interest on car loans or even waivers for downpayment. These deals will

be exclusively available only at My Auto Fest. You won't get them

outside the show,” said Datuk Aishah.

The organisers target to have 20 car brands with over 100 car models to

be made available for viewing, test drives and sales during the 3-day My

Auto Fest.

Several activities are being drawn up for show patrons and their families.

These include test drives, lucky draws, lifestyle booths, food trucks and
