According to managing director, retail and distribution of Sime Darby Motors Malaysia, Jeffrey Gan said, Hyundai is expected to lead the electric vehicle market segment in Malaysia as more electric vehicles are expected to be rolled out over the next 3 years.

Coupled with advanced connectivity and driver assistance features, the IONIQ 5 offers drivers the ultimate in-car experience while ensuring safety.” stated by the managing director of HSDM, Mr Low Yuan Lung.
Equipped with Electric Global Modular Platform (E-GMP), this model rides on 20-inch diameter rims which are the largest fitted to a Hyundai EV. The front fascia is designed with V-shape daytime running lights and offers automatic door handles on sides.
