EV NEXT by Sime Motors Is Malaysia’s 1st Dedicated Used EV Dealership

EV NEXT currently operates 3 showrooms in Klang Valley: Glenmarie, Chan Sow Lin, and TREC.

While they may still be considered the hot new thing, EVs have actually been around in the mainstream over here for a few years already. As such, used examples have since lately become more and more prevalent in the market.

And likely in a move to capitalise on this growing segment, Sime Motors has recently introduced EV NEXT — Malaysia’s first used EV dealership. With the aim of becoming a leading EV provider in the region, EV NEXT touts itself to offer its customers a wide selection of pre-owned EVs with attractive trade-in values.

EV NEXT’s current portfolio features an impressive lineup of EVs from a multitude of brands, including BYD, BMW, MINI, Hyundai, Jaguar, Porsche, and Volvo. If being entirely candid here too, most of its stock at present appear to be certified pre-owned cars from the various brands under the wider Sime Motors distribution umbrella.  

As a comprehensive solution provider, the dealership also aims to deliver a seamless customer journey, from selecting the ideal EV through to complete aftersales service and maintenance.

Supporting EV NEXT’s retail operations meanwhile is Drivecare, Sime Motors’ independent aftersales network that provides comprehensive maintenance solutions for EV owners. Whether customers are first-time used EV buyers or existing owners, EV NEXT serves as a complete destination for all electric vehicle requirements.

The company’s maintenance facilities are equipped with cutting-edge technology and specialised tools, while its team of highly certified and skilled technicians ensures that every vehicle, including its critical battery components, is maintained in optimal condition for safe and reliable performance.

Currently, EV NEXT operates 3 showrooms in the Klang Valley region: Glenmarie, Chan Sow Lin, and TREC. The company is nevertheless actively expanding its footprint across Malaysia with new locations planned in Penang, Tebrau, and Johor Bahru.
