Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) Sdn Bhd will be the official distributor of Volkswagen cars in the domestic market.
VPCM is managed by European automotive retail specialist, Porsche Holding Salzburg, the car distributor said in a statement.
The announcement comes after a series of consolidation exercises within Volkswagen Malaysia over the past six months.
Alin Tapalaga, one of two managing directors to lead VCPM, said the company would be increasing the Completely Knocked-Down model line-up, and continue to import Completely Built-Up models into the country.
Moving forward, Volkswagen Group Malaysia will concentrate its business interest in Malaysia on the Audi brand, as well as its vehicle assembly operation in Pekan, Pahang.
Meanwhile, VPCM is introducing a five-year manufacturer warranty for all Volkswagen cars purchased from today, while launching the new Jetta and all-new Passat within the next few months.
The Volkswagen franchise in Malaysia was previously handled by DRB-Hicom Bhd.
