GWM Malaysia continues to build on its 2025 momentum with a total of 1,294 units delivered in Q1 2026, capitalising on the growing demand for hybrids and EVs to reflect the current automotive market’s landscape.
Sales performance grew progressively through the quarter, with a stronger March reflecting stabilising consumer sentiment, ensuresing the brand maintains its position among Malaysia’s top 15 automotive brands. In 2025, the brand recorded just short of 5,900 units sold, a 177% year-on-year growth.
Its best-seller was the Wey G9 Hi4 PHEV that also emerged as the leading Chinese luxury MPV in Malaysia for the quarter.

In the SUV arena, the Haval H6 HEV continues to be a key contributor, strengthening its hold on the second spot in its segment with a 14.9% market share after emerging as one of Malaysia’s best-selling hybrid models in 2025.
The Tank 300 further strengthened its positioning as a lifestyle and off-road-focused SUV, a position it should solidify even further with the upcoming launch of the Tank 300 HEV in the coming months.
