Giti Tire Malaysia Sponsors Cars of Malaysia 2019
Giti Tire Malaysia recently sponsored the Cars of Malaysia 2019, described as a ‘unique one-of-its-kind’ car buying guide organised by Evomalaysia. The aim is to aid the purchasing decision of new car buyers by identifying the best three vehicles in each segment. Giti Tire says it has a strong focus on the wide variety of the cars in each segment and ensures that the concerns of tyre safety and driving performance are requisite for the drivers.
The evaluation process for Cars of Malaysia 2019 considers all new cars currently on sale and sorts them into 30 categories, which are then put to the vote by consumers. Voting was announced exclusively through Aurizn’s social media channels and 3,351 car buyers casted their votes over a one-month period.
Preceding the results announcement ceremony was a large gathering of car owners with Aurizn’s team of presenters leading an 80-car convoy that was flagged off in the morning from Kuala Lumpur and that proceeded to Putrajaya and back.
“It was an overwhelming turnout for our event. When we announced this drive two weeks ago, we had to close registration within days because people were signing up so quickly!” said Bobby Ang, Editor-in-Chief of Aurizn, the publisher of Evomalaysia.
Bobby explained that the Aurizn team always focused on helping consumers make the most informed decision possible with their car purchases.
“In our experience testing cars, there is no such thing as a zero sum game of just one best car in most given segments but it’s valid to say that in each segment, there are two or three very good choices,” he continued.
The result announcement took place at the Bukit Bintang City Centre (BBCC) in an evening event attended by a mix of car owners and car maker representatives that enabled direct exchange of feedback between them.
Besides finding the best new cars on sale, the Cars of Malaysia 2019 voting process also surveyed the overall happiness of car owners for their respective vehicle and brand. Results show that most Malaysians are generally happy with their current vehicles, although some expressed a desire to try another brand with their next purchase.
Cars of Malaysia 2019 is sponsored by Giti Tires, a global tyre brand headquartered in Singapore and with manufacturing and engineering presence globally from USA to Europe, China and Indonesia. It is the 10th largest tyre company in the world with a daily production volume of more than 289,000 tyres and annual revenue of US$3.4 billion.
Also supporting the event was premium window film maker Llumar, a world leader in solar and security films that offers a complete line of automotive tint, architectural window films and more recently, paint protection films.
“We want to thank our sponsors Giti Tires and Llumar as well as BBCC for providing us with this lovely venue to host our large guest turnout. More importantly, we want to thank our fans for their great support of not only our content but also our outings and events,” said Bobby.
Moving forward, he announced the upcoming Evo Enduro 2019, an enthusiasts-driven event that challenges participants to embark on a fun endurance drive from Kuala Lumpur to Phuket, with many scenic stops and routes along the way.
“Evo Enduro began in 2017 as an attempt to bring the spirit of great long distance drives like Targa Florio and Mille Miglia to our shores. The response over the past two years was fantastic and we look forward to another successful round,” he said.
He continued: “Our popularity has grown tremendously over the past two years. We are known in the industry to be approachable and give trustworthy advice to consumers. Our events, be it Cars of Malaysia or Evo Enduro, are impactful events that resonate with our audience and help us build a meaningful connection with them.”
