Hyundai Sime Darby Guarantees Zero-Rated GST Price for IONIQ and Tucson for Booking Placed by 31 August 2018

If you still want to take the opportunity to buy a car under this zero GST period you can still do so, if you intend to purchse a Hyundai. Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HDSM) have stated that customers who have made bookings for the Hyundai IONIQ Hybrid and the *Tucson (*applicable only for the Turbo and Elegance variant) need not worry about paying the sales and service tax (SST), even if their vehicle is delivered after 1st September 2018.

However, do take note that this special promotional price will only apply provided the booking for the Hyundai IONIQ or Tucson is made before or on 31st August 2018. HDSM  also stated that it would honour the selling price of these two vehicles with zero-rated GST while stocks last for a limited time only.

Mr Dennis Ho, Managing Director of Sime Darby Motors (Malaysia, Thailand and Taiwan) has also said that the sales of Hyundai vehicles have increased during the tax holiday period, especially for the IONIQ Hybrid and Tucson models as customers take the opportunity to enjoy greater savings from this most likely never-again tax holiday.

“With our stock for the IONIQ Hybrid and *Tucson fast depleting, we will need time to replenish the stock in order to fulfill customers’ demands. It is only fair that HSDM absorbs the SST for orders placed by 31 August 2018, even for vehicles delivered after the SST takes effect,” added Ho.

The **current selling price for the Hyundai IONIQ and Tucson models with zero-rated GST are as follows:

• IONIQ Hybrid HEV – RM94,788

• IONIQ Hybrid HEV Plus – RM109,988

• Tucson Elegance – RM119,188

• Tucson Turbo – RM137,488

**Price indicated is only applicable to Peninsular Malaysia and excludes insurance.
