These will be positioned in key locations in Peninsular Malaysia, namely Cyberjaya, Alor Setar, Butterworth, Seremban, Kuantan, Sungai Petani, Setia Alam, Johor Bahru and Balakong.

"We are excited to welcome these nine esteemed dealerships to be part of our growing team. Their expertise and dedication to excellence align perfectly with our values, and together we are poised to offer an enhanced automotive experience to customers across Malaysia," Warisan TC Holdings group chief executive officer (CEO) Tan Keng Meng said in a statement.

This appointment of nine dealerships in Peninsular Malaysia follows an earlier statement by Tan at the Malaysian market preview of the GAC GS3 Emzoom, which stated Warisan TC aims to establish more than 20 showrooms and service centres nationwide for the brand by the end of 2024.

Previewed at the end of January, the GS3 Emzoom is a B-segment crossover that will be priced under MYR 130,000 (US$ 27,200) and will be offered in two variants - Exclusive and Premium-R - and will first enter the market as a fully imported (CBU) model.

Locally assembled (CKD) units will roll of the production line from the Tan Chong Motor Assemblies (TCMA) plant in Segambut, Kuala Lumpur in April 2024.
