KUALA LUMPUR, 20 July 2026<\/strong> \u2013 BYD Sime Motors, the official distributor of BYD cars in Malaysia, today launched BYD Certified<\/strong>, BYD’s official certified pre-owned vehicle programme, offering Malaysians a trusted pathway into electric vehicle ownership. The launch also marks the establishment of the first BYD Certified outlet in the Asia Pacific region, located at Sime Darby Auto Selection Glenmarie, reflecting Malaysia’s growing importance within BYD’s regional growth strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than a conventional pre\u2011owned programme, BYD Certified is raising the standard for pre\u2011owned EV ownership in Malaysia. Every vehicle is professionally inspected, backed by verified battery health assessments, warranty coverage, financing solutions, and aftersales support. Guided by its promise to Drive Pre-Owned with Confidence, the programme delivers greater transparency, reliability and long-term value at every stage of ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the launch, BYD Certified completed its first customer delivery with the handover of a pre-owned BYD ATTO 3, marking an important milestone for the programme and the growing adoption of certified pre-owned EVs in Malaysia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jacob Ma, Managing Director of BYD Malaysia said, \u201cBYD Certified represents an important step in making EV ownership more accessible to Malaysians. As the EV market continues to mature, we are seeing growing interest from customers seeking quality pre-owned vehicles backed by assurance and professional support. Through BYD Certified, we are extending the BYD ownership experience to a wider audience, while reinforcing our commitment to supporting customers throughout their entire EV journey, beyond just the vehicle itself.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adeline Lew, Managing Director of BYD Sime Motors added, \u201cBYD Certified is built on rigorous quality standards and transparent vehicle verification. Every certified pre-owned BYD undergoes a comprehensive inspection by trained technicians and is supported by verified vehicle history records, battery health assessments and warranty coverage. The programme also provides existing BYD owners with a trusted trade-in platform, making it easier to upgrade within the BYD ecosystem while supporting stronger long-term ownership value.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
