Local Hyundai EV owners share first convoy drive to Avani Sepang

Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors (HSDM) recently hosted an appreciation weekend getaway at the Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort. According to HSDM, the outing stands as a reflection of appreciation and trust held by the participating owners. The event also allowed participants to exchange knowledge and tips on making the most of their EV driving experience. 

A total of 25 electric vehicles taking part, the bulk of which comprised of the IONIQ 5 and Kona Electric models. The drive  to Avani Sepang Goldcoast Resort kicked with breakfast plus a quick safety briefing session held at the Hyundai brand's flagship centre located within the Sime Darby Motors City compound at Ara Damansara.

Managing Director of HSDM, Mr. Low Yuan Lung said that the appreciation getaway was hosted to thank its customers for their support and patience as HSDM contended with the many trials and tribulations brought on by the global chip shortages.

For the record, since the introduction of the IONIQ 5 in March of this year and the Kona Electric in late last year, the automaker has shipped close to 200 EVs.

Asari Ramli who owns the IONIQ 5 Plus said he enjoyed this event where owners get to share their thoughts on the driving capabilities of the Hyundai EV.

“This event is very well organised. It is the first interactive event that I have attended and a good platform for owners to share knowledge and tips, especially on the great safety features of the vehicle,” he said.
