Last chance to win a car at international motorshow
KUALA LUMPUR: Today is the final day of the Kuala Lumpur International Motorshow 2018 (KLIMS’18), which offers visitors a chance to win either a Toyota C-HR, a Honda City or a Perodua Myvi.
Every entrance ticket is eligible for the lucky draw at the motor show held at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (Mitec).
The winning tickets will be drawn tonight after the show closes by Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) president Datuk Aishah Ahmad.
MAA is the organiser of the motor show, which features over 74 marques of vehicle brands and automotive products spanning more than six exhibitions halls and covering two levels at Mitec.
Participating automotive brands include CAM, Citroen, Daihatsu, DS, Ford, Kawasaki, Benelli, Honda, Hyundai and Isuzu.
Others are Kia, Lexus, PetronasMotorsports, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Perodua, Peugeot, Proton, Tata, Toyota and UD Trucks.
There are plenty of giveaways at KLIMS’18. At the Toyota booth, a mystery man contest is running every day.
If you can identify him by asking him, “Are you all about the drive?” you can walk away with RM1,000 or more.
Mitsubishi is rewarding visitors who can take the most creative shot with the new Triton with a GoPro Hero 7 Black.
At Hyundai, if you like and follow their social media accounts and answer some simple questions, you will be able to win an Ogawa massage chair.
A Huawei Nova 3 phone is up for grabs at the Osram booth for visitors who snap a creative picture with their brand ambassador.
At Nissan, visitors can register and redeem a coffee/ chocolate art printed with the Nissan Leaf.
Visitors can also visit the Innovation Centre display zone on Level 2, where local university students are showcasing vehicles they developed such as the armoured vehicle from Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia, a retro motorcycle prototype from Universiti Malaysia Perlis, a level 2 autonomous car by Universiti Teknologi Mara and a single-seat race car by Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).
The latter was developed by 13 students from UPM’s department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering to compete in Formula SAE (previously known as the Society of Automotive Engineers) Japan.
This student design competition requires the participants not only to design and build the car according to the strict criteria, but also find sponsors to fund the project, give presentations, cover the safety aspects and come up with a business model among others.
In other words, it is exactly like how one would manage a professional motorsport team such as F1 or Formula 3.
The entrance fee for KLIMS’18 is RM25 per person. For children aged three to 12, the entrance ticket is RM5 each.
There is also a family package where parents and up to five children aged 12 and below are charged RM50.
Those with special needs (with handicapped card/physically handicapped) get free entry together with one accompanying person.
Star Media Group is the official media partner of KLIMS’18.
