Regas Premium Auto introduces locally assembled BMW X3
KUCHING: Regas Premium Auto has introduced the all-new BMW X3, which will be locally assembled for the first time.
A press release said this demonstrates BMW Group Malaysia’s commitment to growing its investments here in Malaysia, a move that further emphasises Malaysia as the hub for the BMW Group in Southeast Asia.
“This is a perfect example on the BMW belief that the best way to predict the future is to create it. With over two generations of the BMW X3, we have delivered more than 1.5 million vehicles to lead the segment all over the world. Today, the all-new BMW X3 is set to continue to write the next chapter in BMW’s success story in the premium segment,” said BMW Group Malaysia managing director and CEO Harald Hoelzl.
Hoelzl said with over 1,000 units already delivered this year, the BMW X Family is enjoying a significant 39 per cent growth in Malaysia, compared to the same period last year.
Driving this performance is The Boss – the BMW X5, and the FirstEver BMW X2.
“Now, with the all-new BMW X3, BMW Group Malaysia looks forward to pushing the BMW X Family further this year. For the very first time, the independent and passionate BMW X3 is made available from launch as a locally assembled vehicle to offer our customers here a wider choice and availability of products as well as a differentiation, option and a mix from our offering of fully imported models in the premium sports activity vehicle segment,” said Hoelzl.
Overall, BMW Group Malaysia delivered 3,000 BMW, Mini, and Motorrad vehicles in the first quarter of 2018, charting a 15 per cent growth compared to the same period last year with 2,600 vehicles delivered.
The dynamic handling qualities of the All-New BMW X3 are rooted in its ideal 50: 50 weight distribution, its meticulously honed chassis, and the BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel- drive system, which made its debut in 2003 when the first generation of the BMW X3 was launched.
The All-New BMW X3 is available at all authorised BMW dealerships nationwide with deliveries commencing in July.
With the Balloon Financing Plan from BMW Group Financial Services Malaysia, the AllNew BMW X3 can be owned with monthly instalment plans starting from RM3,532.00 ( based on estimates of an 80 per cent loan on a five-year tenure).
Customers of the All-New BMW X3 can also experience the complete BMW Group Malaysia Premium Ownership experience which includes: BMW five-year unlimited mileage warranty with free scheduled service programme, BMW two-year tyre warranty programme for its run flat tyre offering and services, BMW Roadside Assistance and Accident Hotline, the BMW Group Loyalty+ Mobile App – BMW White Card, and BMW Service Online.
The estimated retail price (on the road, without insurance) for the all-new BMW X3 xDrive30i is RM320,000.
