The upcoming smart #1 is open for test-drives this weekend exclusively through dealers smart Balakong (Hap Seng) and smart Ipoh (GB Auto).


Authorised smart dealers smart Balakong (Hap Seng) and smart Ipoh (GB Auto) are jointly conducting a special test-drive event at their respective establishments this weekend. This special test-drive event runs on both  Saturday, 30 Sept, and Sunday, 1 Oct from 10AM to 5PM.

At the heart of this event is of course the upcoming smart #1 that’s set for launch sometime in the fourth quarter (Q4) this year.

Additionally, smart Malaysia (PRO-NET) notes that the first 501 customers who place their pre-orders for the #1 during this test-drive event will also be entitled to the exclusive #1 Early-Bird perks. Amongst them is up to RM1,001 in charging credits via the newly released Hello smart App.
