Volkswagen Group Malaysia has issued an official response to our query over its recent range-wide price increase. It reads as such:
Volkswagen’s revision of its car prices by less than 1% increase comes after a few years of price stability. It is far below Malaysia’s inflation and it covers only a portion of the recent currency developments. Additionally, the car prices for existing stock remain unchanged.
On October 17, VGM released a new price list for its local vehicle lineup, which included price hikes ranging from RM1,000 to RM6,000 over various models. Take a look at the latest prices for all Volkswagen vehicles below, or read our original report on the matter here.

AI-generated Summary ✨
Comments express frustration over VW’s price increase, citing ongoing DSG gearbox issues, poor after-sales service, and perceived lack of transparency about problems. Many believe VW is marketing itself as a semi-premium or luxury brand in Malaysia, which has led to disappointment among owners facing costly repairs and unreliable performance. Some see the hike as unjustified profit-making or a marketing ploy, while others justify it as a response to currency fluctuations and industry costs. Overall, sentiments are mixed but predominantly negative regarding VW's pricing and quality.
