National Cyclist Dato' Azizulhasni Awang is the First Ever Brand Ambassador for Volkswagen Malaysia



Today, we got to sit in the same room with national cycling icon, Dato Azizulhasni Awang. A real down to earth champion from the looks of it. The reason is that Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) held a small media event to announce a partnership with Dato’Azizulhasni who is now the first-ever brand ambassador for the Volkswagen marque in Malaysia. This is a partnership of shared values like bold performance, relentless determination, and timeless design.  Known as The Pocket Rocketman, Azizulhasni is not only Malaysia’s first Olympic cycling medallist but also a symbol of what Malaysians can achieve with heart, grit and precision, and something that Volkswagen also say they hold dear to.


The story of Dato' Azizul is colourful. From humble beginnings in Terengganu to the podiums of Tokyo, Melbourne and hopefully the next Olympics, the journey of how he has arrived to this point reflects the Volkswagen ethos: to engineer dreams into reality through innovation, resilience and human excellence.

Still in the mid-range, but with more features and as you will read, decent prices and warranty packages.
