Modenas official take-over of Kawasaki for Malaysia

Modenas official take-over of Kawasaki for Malaysia

After the six-month transition period which ended March 31, 2022, Edaran Modenas (EMOS) has taken over the mantle of official distributor for Kawasaki motorcycles in Malaysia. Kawasaki Motors (KMC) has a 30% equity in Modenas with DRB-Hicom as the majority shareholder.

Malaysian owners of Kawasaki motorcycles are assured of customer service and products under EMOS management of the new distributorship as well as technical services and recalls. Modenas will also be introducing the latest models from Kawasaki’s 2022 catalogue as well as expanding operations, development, production and sales.

Assembly of selected Kawasaki motorcycles for the Malaysian market is expected to begin while larger capacity Kawasaki models will be imported to cater to market demand. Meanwhile, Yusaku Kashiwagi has been appointed Chief Marketing Officer for Modenas.

A network of 13 dealers has been established across the nation to cater to the needs of Kawasaki owners. Of these, three are located in the northern region – one in Kedah, two in Penang, five in the central region, three in the southern region – two in Malacca and one in Johor, and one each in Pahang and Sarawak.

    Let’s see how this goes.

    Modenas can’t even properly cater to their own Modenas bikes for service. Ask a Dominar owner when it comes to Modenas service.

    About the ONLY good thing about this is if the zx4r and ZX25r is coming in…..but that remains to be seen.

    A flip side to this, we got proper support for Suzuki’s now.

    • They did build their own bikes for GT128, CT100, CT110, CT115 and modenas MR1 but it failed in market because modenas never listen to latest demand of Cupchai.

      So they changed their strategy to 90’s again where they just rebrand Cupchai
