Perodua is exploring a RM500 million acquisition of TCMA’s Serendah plant, sources tell The Edge. The 40k-unit-capacity site, only 3 km from Perodua’s headquarters, already leases 30k units annually for QV-E EV paint and assembly, generating RM80 million for cash-strapped Tan Chong whose overall utilization hovers at 13%. The deal would lift Perodua beyond its current 320k maximum output and secure dedicated EV capacity, while Tan Chong monetizes excess assets.

Mercedes-Benz will unveil the VLE on March 10, 2026, in Stuttgart.

Fresh cues: one-piece light bar, Y-spoke 20-inch alloys, 29-inch AR-HUD, zero-gravity passenger seat and three Turing AI chips delivering 2,250 TOPS for city/highway NOP. While Malaysia’s CKD list already covers G6 and X9, the P7+ could join future local-assembly slots D02/D03.
