The highly anticipated National Automotive Policy 2020 , which was launched last Friday, may have missed the mark in terms of laying down a solid plan of action for Malaysia’s automotive industry.that while the strategies laid out are good in principle, the NAP 2020 is still very much a rough plan without clear actionable steps.
Automotive analyst and automotive news portal Funtasticko.net editor Shamsul Yunos echoed the sentiments, tellingthat while the framework seems to include the right stance on technological advances such as the Internet of Things , it lacks proper substance. In his speech at the launch, Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said apart from aligning with current technological trends, the NAP 2020 is also targeting enhancing current policies while introducing new measures.
The NAP 2020, going forward, is said to maintain and enhance the NAP 2014 framework through three directional thrusts and three strategies consisting of seven roadmaps and blueprints that introduce three new technological elements namely, the Next Generation Vehicle , Mobility as a Service , and Industrial Revolution 4.0 .
Shamsul said the NAP 2020’s plans in terms of energy efficiency, travel autonomy and electrification will likely involve and revolve around the nationally branded vehicle.
