TQ WULING has officially entered the Malaysian electric vehicle space with the launch of the locally assembled Bingo EV, a compact electric hatchback aimed squarely at everyday urban drivers. Introduced as the first model under the TQ WULING brand, the Bingo EV is the result of a strategic collaboration between Tan Chong Motor Holdings Berhad and SAIC-GM-Wuling, combining decades of local manufacturing experience with proven global EV technology.The Bingo EV is offered in two variants, with the Bingo PRO priced at RM67,800 and the Bingo MAX at RM72,800, making it one of the most accessible EVs currently available in Malaysia. As part of its launch campaign, TQ WULING is rolling out Bingo’s Fabulous Five Perks, which include a RM5,000 cash rebate. With this incentive applied, on-the-road prices drop to RM62,800 for the PRO and RM67,800 for the MAX, significantly lowering the barrier to EV ownership. Early customers are also encouraged by a low booking fee of RM50 via the tqwuling.my website.

Nissan is stepping up efforts to strengthen its global brand image by placing renewed emphasis on motorsport, expanding its NISMO performance range and tapping into the growing heritage and restoration scene. The initiatives, announced by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. together with Nissan Motorsports & Customisation Co., Ltd. (NMC), form part of the wider Re:Nissan product strategy, where so-called “heartbeat models” are positioned as emotional flag-bearers that reflect the company’s performance-focused DNA.Motorsport remains central to this approach, with Nissan continuing to treat racing as both a proving ground and a development platform. Technologies and driving know-how honed in top-level competitions such as Super GT and Formula E will continue to flow directly into road cars under the long-standing philosophy of transferring lessons from the track back to everyday driving. Nissan also plans to maintain its presence in endurance racing series like Super Taikyu while exploring opportunities in new racing categories to broaden its technical and competitive experience.
