Less than two weeks to go before the paultan.org Premium Auto Car Expo (PACE) – co-sponsored by Carro and RHB Bank – returns for its 2025 instalment at the Setia City Convention Centre (SCCC) on July 19 and 20 from 9am to 7pm. One of the yearly highlights is BMW via Auto Bavaria, and this year the company is showcasing the new BMW 218 Gran Coupé Sport in one of its first public outings since its launch last month.
The latest version of BMW’s popular compact four-door gains a new design with restyled front and rear fascias for a more expressive look. Inside, you get an upgraded cockpit layout incorporating the latest BMW Operating System 9, along with premium materials.
Power comes from a 1.5 litre BMW TwinPower Turbo three-cylinder engine that produces 156 PS and 230 Nm of torque – sent through a seven-speed Steptronic dual-clutch transmission – while a stiffer body structure and retuned suspension provide increased agility and more precise handling.
The 218 Gran Coupé Sport will be on display at the Auto Bavaria booth, where you will be able to pore over and test drive the car. You will also be able to enjoy special launch pricing and rebates, exclusive rewards and the BMW Service & Repair Inclusive (BSRI) five-year, unlimited warranty and five-year/100,000 km service package. Those who purchase an electric model will instead receive an extended six-year warranty and an eight-year battery warranty.
Of course, BMW is just one of the myriad of brands being showcased at PACE 2025 – MINI (also represented by Auto Bavaria), Mercedes-Benz (represented by Hap Seng Star), Audi, BYD, Denza, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda, Xpeng, GWM, GAC and Zeekr will all be participating in the event. Two-wheelers will also be present in the shape of BMW Motorrad, while Kineta and Trapo will also be showing their wares.
Aside from the bountiful deals on offer from each brand, there are also great giveaways in store from us at paultan.org. The first 200 people to place a booking on a new car will walk away with RM3,000 worth of vouchers from our supporting partners, including Solar Gard, Dodomat, The Carage, Kuzig Glanz, Gintell and DK Schweizer.
The RM3,000 worth of vouchers will also be given to the first 40 bike bookings, and that’s not all. Confirm your new car booking and you will be entered into a lucky draw that will win you prizes including ten smartphones worth RM3,500 each and the grand prize – a holiday package for two worth RM25,000!
With the best deals from the brands, guaranteed vouchers and many rewards in store, there’s no better place to purchase a car than at PACE 2025. Once again, the annual show will be happening from July 19-20, 9am to 7pm at SCCC. See you there!
