Monday, the little town of Kulim in Kedah saw another landmark event for the local automotive industry – Sime Darby and Porsche rolled out the first locally-assembled Cayenne for the domestic market.
Both companies also stated that the local assembly facility underscores Porsche’s commitment to Malaysia as well as the Asean region and demonstrates Sime Darby’s dedication to expanding its high-value assembly capabilities as a critical element for growth for its Sime Darby Motors’ business. “Additionally, the facility was built alongside our production philosophy: ‘smart, lean and green’. Therefore, the new assembly facility is not only a benchmark in efficiency and quality, but also in sustainability.
