Upcoming Events: The Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show 2018 - 23rd November to 2nd December 2018 is Another Big Motor Show to Look Forward to



The Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show is back for 2018 The motorshow, or KLIMS’18), is organised by the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA), and it is making its 9th presentation from 23 November to 2 December 2018 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Center (MITEC). 

This isn't an annual event as MAA only organises it once every few years, the last one was a good five years ago!

Anyway, this is the second announcement by MAA after the initial one early this year. More things have been finalised but the reason for this short news piece is to remind you readers out there that there will be another larger than usual motor show which will happen here in Malaysia.

KLIMS'18 is themed “Beyond Mobility” and preparations are underway for auto marques to showcase their exhilarating automobiles and promote their R&D achievements and visions at KLIMS’18. Two confirmed participants are Honda Malaysia and Perodua. According to the grapevine, Perodua may launch something juicy at this motorshow aside from showcasing their regular line-up of efficient compact cars. 

One of the highlights of the motor show is the electrification of cars as the global automotive industry calibrates to changing energy, environmental, and safety influences.


Datuk Aishah Ahmad, President of MAA said “The automotive industry is a revolution in motion. Technological advancement and innovative initiatives of the world’s brands are powering a mobility phenomenon that have changed the way a car drives. Consumers are also demanding better user experience, safety features and energy efficient vehicles on their powertrains.”


Datuk (Dr) Aminar Rashid Salleh, President and Chief Executive Officer of Perodua, said “As Malaysia’s No 1 Energy-Efficient Vehicle (EEV) manufacturer, Perodua will be highlighting its technologies in this area at KLIMS’18, as well as displaying vehicle trends designed to excite the young as well as the young-at-heart. There will be something for everybody!”

“KLIMS’18 is a platform to gather key industry players to advance the automotive market in Malaysia. Sustainable mobility can be realised through a collaborative approach between auto-makers, fuel companies, associated industries, end users and regulators. We should pursue an automotive market in Malaysia that is beneficial for personal mobility and the economic prosperity that vehicles bring, while minimising the impact to the environment.” she added.
