Volkswagen opens its latest showroom in Kuantan

Volkswagen Group Malaysia (VGM) has opened its latest VW showroom in the country, and the new outlet – operated by authorised dealer Okuan Otomobil – is located in Kuantan, Pahang. The new dealership extends the brand’s reach to customers in the East Coast of the Peninsular, and brings VGM’s operational outlets nationwide to 17.

Ricky Tay, VGM’s MD, said the launch of the showroom is part of Volkswagen’s rapid expansion plans in Malaysia, which was carried out extensively last year to extend the customer satisfaction experience.

“As the first showroom to be launched in 2012, we believe Okuan Otomobil will set the pace for Volkswagen to further strengthen its brand awareness and customer service in the region, especially in the state of Pahang,” he said.

    its really amazing what VW has done with their brand. walk into any showroom on a weekend, and it will more than likely be full of people.

    im expecting a 2012 cbu jetta to join the ‘family’ this march. very impressed by the car and the added value is brings to the table compared to others in the same price range.

      its a golf, with a boot. similarly sized to corolla altis, civic, forte, cruze and sylphy.

      check the price range and who are the targeted audience.

      If they reduce their price up to RM20k…..I believe lots of T, H and N owners change their car to VW.

    • Have you owned one before? From your comments I don’t think so.

      • You’re right, I have not owned one and not anytime soon. I can’t afford such a luxuriuosly priced car with my low basic salary of RM11k per month, that’s why I comment on such car blogs…..

    certain brand meant to be niche…… eventually become mass product, no exclusive anymore, any of you aware about this?
