According to Business Times, Naza is set to take up the distributorship of the Koenigsegg brand here in Malaysia and we could see the first units going on sale in February. Naza currently already holds distributorships of Ferrari and Maserati, so this will be the group’s third high performance brand. Koenigsegg is expected to be a very niche model in Malaysia, even more niche than the Ferrari or Maserati brands, especially the latter which is able to target buyers with a budget of about a million bucks and sway their purchase decision from a 750Li or a S500 to a Quattroporte. Koeniegseggs will be a completely different price tag altogether, with the CCX expected to go for over 3 million ringgit at least. More details to come when an official announcement is made.

Comments expressing excitement and admiration for Koenigsegg as a supercar, highlighting its rarity and high performance, are prominent. Many debate the car's steep price, often suggesting it’s overpriced for Malaysian roads, which are bumpy and unsuited for such performance vehicles. Several comments criticize the apparent monopoly by Naza in distributing exotic cars like Koenigsegg, Pagani, and Lamborghini, with concerns over market fairness and inflated pricing due to taxes. Others express jealousy, skepticism about the practicality of owning such cars in Malaysia, and note that only the wealthy or cronies can afford or purchase these vehicles. Overall, the sentiment combines fascination with the brand’s exclusivity, skepticism about pricing and distribution, and criticism of the limited accessibility for average Malaysians.
