Volvo Car Malaysia Sets New Record for BEV Sales

Volvo Car Malaysia concluded the 2024 calendar year with a new sales mix record for its fully electric (BEV) segment which made up 30 percent of total retail sales, representing an increase of 18 percent compared to 2023.

Volvo Car Malaysia’s BEV and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) models made up 83 percent of total
retail sales for the year, compared to 71 percent in the preceding year. This is a milestone for the company’s wider global sustainability ambition to sell between 90 to 100 percent of ‘electrified’ cars by 2030, defined by models with a plug-in, high-voltage battery drivetrain.

Volvo Car Malaysia is a pioneer for electrification – both in Malaysia and within Volvo Cars’ global markets – by being one of the first to only offer either fully electric or hybrid electric variants of all new cars sold since 2020.

Currently, customers in Malaysia can choose between PHEV or mild-hybrid electric vehicle (MHEV) powertrains for models with an internal combustion engine. In 2024, Volvo Car Malaysia sold 1,953 cars of which MHEV models made up less than a fifth of the full-year sales mix. The previous year, MHEVs represented a third of the company’s annual sales.

Chris Tan, Sales Director of Volvo Car Malaysia, said, “While last year was a much more
competitive environment for the industry, we are pleased to continue driving our vision of personal, safe and sustainable mobility with the introduction of the new, fully electric Volvo EX30 that was well received locally – our first batch of fully imported units sold out before local assembly commenced.

We now have a focused portfolio of fully electric vehicles for Malaysia with our flagship seven-seater Volvo EX90 coming next.” The upcoming Volvo EX90 is the company’s largest all-electric SUV and incorporates Volvo Cars’ most advanced safety technology to date such as lidar, core computing, and occupant monitoring for drivers and passengers.

In 2024, Volvo Car Malaysia also expanded its scope and scale of exclusive customer
experiences and brand events, including a hands-on driving experience of the new Volvo
EX30 at launch, the first-ever Volvo Safety Driving Experience, and the inaugural Volvo
Padel Open.

Globally, Volvo Cars set a new sales record with 763,389 cars sold in 2024, an increase of 8 percent compared to 2023. The company also saw a significant increase in sales for its electrified cars, selling 175,194 BEV models and 177,593 PHEV models, an increase of 54 percent and 16 percent respectively compared to the previous year.

Combined, electrified cars accounted for 46 percent of all Volvo cars sold globally during
2024, while sales of fully electric cars alone accounted for 23 percent of the total, compared to 16 percent in 2023.

Full electrification remains a key pillar of Volvo Cars’ product strategy with five fully electric cars launched globally and another five models planned for future production. This year, the company will roll out a new user interface for all Volvo cars built as early as 2020 with an Android operating system, bringing user experience closer to its new generation of fully electric cars.

Samsung Electronics’ Galaxy S25 series has shifted the paradigm in mobile experiences with its innovative human-like AI. Samsung’s latest flagship smartphone serves as a great travel companion, streamlining tasks that previously required several steps by quickly identifying users’ needs and taking action.

Samsung Newsroom took an exclusive look at some of the Galaxy S25 series’ Galaxy
AI features that make traveling much more special. Find the Best Flight Deals, Share With Friends and Save Onto Samsung Notes in an Instant

Let’s say you’re planning a trip from San Francisco to New York City with a friend. The process would normally take a lot of time and effort to compare flights online, find the best deals and coordinate schedules.

It’s a different story, however, with Galaxy AI. All you need to say is “Find direct flights to New York City and send them to Tony Kim,” and Galaxy AI will search for the best flight deals in real time and send the results to your friend Tony in one smooth, continuous action.

It can also save those flight search results onto Samsung Notes so you can refer to them whenever you wish. In other words, Galaxy AI seamlessly moves across apps to carry out commands and make your trip planning much easier.

The first look at Galaxy S25 – Flight Ticket

Translate Menus, Receive Recommendations and Order With Confidence at Restaurants
Abroad

Trying out the local cuisine is one of the most enjoyable parts of traveling, but language barriers can sometimes prove to be quite an issue when ordering at a restaurant. That issue, however, is no longer a concern with Galaxy AI.

Suppose you’re at a restaurant in Paris and the menu is all in French. Press the side button on your Galaxy S25 and simply say, “Scan the menu and recommend me something under 50 euros.”

The smartphone will instantly translate and recommend menu items under your budget. Go even further by telling Galaxy AI to order that recommended menu in French and soon, you’ll realise that communicating with a waiter in Paris is nothing to fret about.

Perodua telah memperuntukkan sejumlah RM1.6 bilion untuk perbelanjaan modal (CAPEX) tahun ini, dengan sebahagian besar pelaburannya dikhaskan untuk penambahbaikan kilang, peningkatan kapasiti tera (stamping) serta pembangunan model baharu dan perkakasan.

“Jumlah RM1.6 bilion itu adalah lebih sekali ganda CAPEX syarikat pada tahun 2024 iaitu
RM797.5 juta kerana kami mahu menumpukan kepada pelaburan semula keupayaan kami.

“Pelaburan ini akan menyatukan kapasiti pengeluaran, termasuklah di peringkat pembekal, meningkatkan kualiti perkhidmatan dan produktiviti di samping mengukuhkan perancangan penyelidikan dan pembangunan (R&D) produk kami serta keupayaan pembangunan model baharu,” kata Presiden dan Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Perodua, Dato’ Sri Zainal Abidin Ahmad.

Beliau berkata, Perodua telah melepasi kapasiti pengeluarannya dengan 368,100 kenderaan dikeluarkan pada 2024, melebihi kapasiti sebanyak 320,000 untuk kedua-dua kilangnya.

“Rekod 368,100 unit itu dicapai dengan meminimumkan masa henti (downtime), mengikuti jadual penyelenggaraan, koordinasi dan perancangan dinamik dengan pembekal dan pengedar kami serta tangkas dalam menangani cabaran,” katanya.

Beliau berkata, tahun 2025 akan menjadi batu loncatan kepada masa depan Perodua
dengan penekanan terhadap kemandirian syarikat itu dari segi keupayaan pengeluaran,
terutamanya dalam membangunkan produk di masa akan datang.

Zainal berkata, Perodua kini sedang mempercepatkan keupayaan kakitangannya
untuk mencapai kemandirian yang lebih tinggi, bagaimanapun, langkah itu akan
menghasilkan jumlah pengeluaran dan jualan yang lebih rendah tahun ini.

“Bagi tahun 2025, kami menjangka jumlah pengeluaran kami merosot sebanyak 4.9%
kepada 350,000 unit daripada 368,100 unit yang dicatatkan pada tahun 2024. Pengurangan ini juga akan menyaksikan jumlah pendaftaran berkurang sebanyak 3.7% kepada 345,000 unit daripada 358,102 unit tahun lalu.

“Walau bagaimanapun, permintaan terhadap kenderaan kami kekal sihat dengan tempahan tertunggak semasa kini mencecah 68,000 unit, yang mana 28,000 tempahan mempunyai surat aku janji yang dikeluarkan tanpa stok,” katanya.

Beliau berkata, Perodua akan terus mengutamakan penghantaran kenderaannya dan dalam masa yang sama mengekalkan standard keselamatan dan kualiti terjaga.

Mengulas mengenai perniagaan selepas jualan Perodua, Zainal berkata, syarikat kereta kompak itu menyasar untuk meningkatkan jumlah penyelenggaraan kenderaan tahun
ini kepada 3.7 juta, naik 7.6% daripada 3.4 juta yang dicatatkan tahun lalu.

Katanya, Perodua juga akan terus menyokong ekosistem automotif negara dengan pembelian komponen tempatan yang diangggarkan berjumlah RM10.8 bilion daripada pembekal di negara ini.

“Selain itu, kami juga bekerjasama dengan kerajaan untuk meningkatkan keupayaan
pembekal dan pengedar kami agar mereka boleh kekal bersaing secara kompetitif dalam
industri.

“Ini termasuklah dengan terus meneroka potensi Industri 4.0 dalam memaksimumkan
keupayaan dalam operasi mereka, mengendalikan latihan dan menyediakan bantuan lain
bagi pertumbuhan yang lestari,” katanya.

“Tahun 2025 ini akan menjadi tahun yang mengujakan buat Perodua kerana kami sedang mempersiapkan syarikat dan rakan strategiknya untuk sebarang perubahan yang bakal berlaku.

“Kami percaya apabila perubahan ini sudah lengkap, kami mampu mengukuhkan
kedudukan kami di negara ini serta rantau ini,” katanya.

LG Electronics (LG) is set to unveil its innovative new indoor gardening appliance at CES 2025. This latest personal horticultural solution combines an advanced system that encourages fast, healthy plant growth with a modern floor-standing lamp design, effortlessly stylish in any setting.

Ideal for gardening novices as well as urbanites who enjoy bringing nature into their homes, this appliance makes plant cultivation a simple and satisfying experience.

Slender and upright with a circular “lampshade” and base, LG’s distinctive appliance is both an elegant interior object and a highly practical means of producing fresh home-grown greens. Despite its apartment-friendly footprint, the new model offers more growing space compared to the company’s previous indoor gardening appliances, enabling users to nurture a wider variety of plants, including taller species.

Its adaptable growing space and height-adjustable LED growing lights provide considerable
flexibility and the ideal conditions for raising a range of different leafy greens, herbs,
flowers and fruits.

Great for busy lifestyles, LG’s new solution supports continuous growing cycles and features a large, 1.5-gallon-capacity water tank that delivers more hydration between refills. *

The appliance boasts two types of functional and aesthetically-pleasing lighting:downward-facing lights with five intensity levels to support optimal plant growth during the day, and upward-facing mood lighting to create a cozy, calming ambiance in the evening.

This dual lighting design elevates the value and utility of LG’s latest gardening appliance while also highlighting the company’s unique ability to develop versatile “hybrid” solutions that deliver the benefits of multiple products.

With a twenty-plant, four-seed-kit capacity, the new indoor gardening appliance automatically dispenses the right amount of water and nutrients for the number and
variety of plants being grown.

This advanced system ensures consistent care, even when users are away for extended periods, as long as a week. In addition, compatibility with the LG ThinQ ™ app allows users to manage cultivation schedules, adjust lighting settings and monitor plant growth from any location.

Chinese New Year in Malaysia isn’t just a celebration – it’s a marathon of joy, connection, and a time to honour traditions while creating new memories with loved ones.

From crossing states to reunite with family to hosting back-to-back open houses under the blazing Malaysian sun, the festivities can be as demanding as they are meaningful.

“The festive season transforms our daily routines into a whirlwind of activity. PepsiCo has been a proud part of Malaysian celebrations for years, supporting these moments through initiatives that celebrate togetherness”, said Aditya Ahuja, Commercial Director for PepsiCo Foods in Malaysia.

“Last year, Lay’s introduced the AI Fortune-Telling Chips site to spark fun and meaningful conversations among families, while Quaker’s “7X Auspicious, 7X Fibre” campaign helped educate families on integrating healthier eating habits into their festive celebrations”.

“The early preparations – tidying and organising the home, cooking, and travelling – are just the start,” he added. “The real challenge is sustaining the energy needed for days of hosting, visiting, and celebrating to truly enjoy the occasion.

With thoughtful planning and simple strategies, it’s possible to stay energised and make the most of every moment”.

As the festive season continues in full swing, remember that hosting or participating in Chinese New Year visits and parties is like a 15-day marathon, not a sprint. With thoughtful planning and the right support, you can keep the spirit alive while savouring every precious moment.

And as we move into the later days of CNY, here are some practical tips to help you keep the festive momentum alive.

Glossy TV vs. Glare-Free TV: The Ultimate Choice for a Better Viewing Experience

Oleh

Do you know that Malaysians still love watching TV? According to Meltwater’s Digital Report
2024, Malaysians spend an average of 2 hours and 58 minutes per day watching TV and
streaming.

Whether it’s an afternoon with a romantic K-drama or a late-night horror movie, TV remains a cherished pastime that enhances everyday life. Moreover, with content consumption becoming an increasingly personalised experience thanks to streaming being available in the palms of our hands, watching TV is also an activity that brings families closer.

Hence, to elevate your viewing experience, either dealing with afternoon sunlight streaming into the room or sharp lighting in a dark living space, the choice between a glossy TV and a glare-free TV becomes essential. This is where Samsung steps in to offer valuable insights.

Glossy screens are undeniably striking. They boast vivid colours and deep contrasts that make images pop. However, there’s a significant drawback: their shiny surface acts like a mirror, reflecting every light source in the room – it’s a lamp, a window, or even your own silhouette.

To tackle this issue, Samsung introduced Anti-Glare Technology to its OLED TV lineup,
particularly the Samsung OLED S95D. Designed with practicality in mind, this technology uses an embossed surface with a special coating that diffuses light in multiple directions, so you can focus on what’s on screen rather than what’s around you.

Imagine watching your favourite show without distractions, no matter the time of day or the room’s lighting conditions. The environment plays a significant role in how a TV performs.

Glossy screens excel in controlled lighting, such as a dimly lit home theatre, where their vibrant visuals truly impress. However, introduce natural light or a brightly lit room, and their magic quickly fades. Reflections overpower the picture, leaving you frustrated.

This is where the Samsung OLED S95D, powered by the NQ4 AI Gen2 Processor, stands out. It enhances every subtle detail with brightness-boosting technology and OLED HDR
Pro, delivering vibrant visuals in any setting.

Certified by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL), this technology reduces light reflection on the screen, providing a more immersive viewing experience with fewer distractions. Whether you’re hosting a family movie night in the living room or catching up on the news in a sunlit kitchen, this TV show consistent, stunning picture quality. No more squinting or adjusting your seating position to avoid glare.
