Quick look:
- Besides being an authorised distributor for the Peugeot and Leapmotor brands, Cycle & Carriage will also handle vehicle distribution for Stellantis Malaysia.
- The role includes management of the dealer network throughout Malaysia.
Expanding on its existing partnership with Stellantis Malaysia where it is an authorised dealer for the Peugeot and Leapmotor brands, Cycle & Carriage now has an additional role of handling distribution operations for Leapmotor in Malaysia.
“This appointment marks an important milestone in a partnership that has continued to strengthen and is backed by proven automotive expertise, an established retail network, and a customer-first approach,” said Isaac Yeo, Managing Director, Stellantis ASEAN. “We believe that Cycle & Carriage is well-positioned to drive Leapmotor’s next phase of growth in Malaysia.”
Leapmotor entered the Malaysian market in the fourth quarter of 2024 with the launch of the C10 fully electric SUV. Since its arrival, the brand – a joint venture (outside China) between Stellantis and Leapmotor – has been steadily expanding its presence with a growing network of sales and aftersales outlets around the country.
Experienced vehicle distributor
Now, with local assembly commencing at the Stellantis plant in Kedah, Stellantis Malaysia is drawing on the experience of Cycle & Carriage which has a 127-year history, much of it involved in the auto business.
The company has previously handled vehicle distribution for brands such as Mercedes-Benz and Mitsubishi and will now do the same for Leapmotor. Additionally, C&C will also manage the dealer network, taking charge of nationwide retail standards and aftersales capabilities.
“We are proud to mark another significant milestone in our partnership with Stellantis Malaysia by beginning distribution operations for Leapmotor in Malaysia. We believe Malaysia is entering an exciting new phase in electric mobility adoption, with customers increasingly looking for smart, technology-driven vehicles that deliver both innovation and everyday practicality,” said Adrian Short, CEO of Cycle & Carriage.
