Kuala Lumpur, 22nd August 2024 – BMW Group Malaysia, in partnership with its authorised dealers and key charge point operators, unveils four new EV charging facilities across the Klang Valley, Negeri Sembilan and Pahang. The introduction of these new charging facilities across various key locations aims to provide all EV owners with greater peace of mind for interstate travel, while ensuring convenient and accessible charging options within key regions.
"By introducing more state-of-the-art charging facilities across the country, we are emphasising our commitment to an Electrified Future for Malaysia, which has also been well-represented by the rapid unveiling of more fully electrified models from both BMW and MINI within just the first half of 2024. As the Number One Premium Electric Vehicle Provider in Malaysia, we believe that these facilities do more than serve our customers; they form the backbone of a nation moving towards embracing comprehensive Electrified Mobility," said Benjamin Nagel, Managing Director at BMW Group Malaysia.
Within the Klang Valley, BMW Group Malaysia introduces two new charging facilities. The first facility, located at The Curve in Mutiara Damansara, is established in partnership with Quill Automobiles and ChargeSini. The facility is equipped with 47 kW DC chargers, with charging rates priced at RM1.39/kWh. The second facility, established in partnership with Millennium Welt and ChargeSini, brings three 22 kW AC chargers to Imperial Lexis in Kuala Lumpur, with a charging rate starting from RM1.00/kWh.
In Negeri Sembilan, BMW Group Malaysia, in partnership with Millennium Welt, is introducing two BMW i Wallbox units at CMH Specialist Hospital in Seremban.

Lastly, in Pahang, Zenith Hotel Kuantan is now equipped with a 160 kW DC fast charger, priced at RM1.69/kWh, courtesy of the partnership with Millennium Welt Kuantan and EL Charge.
The new charging facilities are part of BMW Group Malaysia’s strategy to develop the comprehensive infrastructure needed for the charging of electric vehicles, together with like-minded local partners, dealers and key charging providers. Over 2,020 charging facilities have been made available by BMW Group Malaysia for EV owners here so far, through strategic partnerships with various EV charging providers in Malaysia.
