BYD Sime Motors Officially launches BYD Certified in Malaysia.
Setting a new benchmark for trust and transparency in the electric vehicle market, BYD Sime Motors has officially launched BYD Certified. The debut marks the introduction of BYD’s official certified pre-owned vehicle programme in Malaysia, engineered to establish a transparent pathway into electric vehicle ownership.
Signifying the country’s prominent position in the brand’s regional expansion strategy, this launch establishes the very first official BYD Certified showroom in the Asia Pacific region. Located at Sime Darby Auto Selection Glenmarie, the facility serves as a complete one-stop ecosystem encompassing vehicle trade-ins, certified sales, tailored financing solutions, and long-term aftersales care.
To commemorate the launch, the outlet completed its inaugural consumer delivery with the handover of a certified pre-owned BYD ATTO 3.
The 5 Certified Quality Assurance Pillars
To eliminate buyer hesitation surrounding battery health and vehicle history, the BYD Certified programme governs its vehicle inventory through 5 strict quality assurances:
- 170 Points of Inspection: Every pre-owned vehicle must undergo a comprehensive, multi-point professional evaluation conducted by factory-trained technicians.
- Mileage Promise: Only vehicles that have accumulated fewer than 100,000 km qualify for certification eligibility.
- Vehicle Age Limits: Eligible vehicles must not exceed 4 years of age, mapped against specific tiered mileage thresholds: 1 year (30,000 km), 2 years (60,000 km), 3 years (90,000 km), and 4 years (100,000 km).
- Certified Clean History: Guaranteed to be completely free from major accident damage, structural fire damage, flood damage, and odometer tampering.
- Original Manufacturer Parts: Any required vehicle reconditioning or component replacement is executed strictly using genuine factory-approved BYD parts.
Programme Benefits and Exclusive Financing Rates
Beyond strict vehicle verification protocols, buyers gain access to an array of exclusive ownership privileges. The program incorporates a 5-Day Buy-Back Assurance, giving customers a full buy-back refund at the original purchase price if undisclosed structural, fire, or flood damage is discovered within 5 days of delivery.
All certified vehicles are backed by official warranty protection supported across BYD’s extensive nationwide network of authorised Sales, Service, and Spare Parts (3S) dealerships. Additionally, the platform provides existing BYD owners with a transparent trade-in ecosystem, simplifying the process of upgrading to newer models while protecting long-term residual values.
“BYD Certified represents an important step in making EV ownership more accessible to Malaysians,” stated Jacob Ma, Managing Director of BYD Malaysia. “As the EV market continues to mature, we are seeing growing interest from customers seeking quality pre-owned vehicles backed by assurance and professional support.”
Adeline Lew, Managing Director of BYD Sime Motors, added that the infrastructure provides existing owners with a highly reliable platform to upgrade within the ecosystem while strengthening long-term asset value.

Malaysian drivers can explore active pre-owned vehicle listings by visiting the brand’s official web portal. Furthermore, the general public is invited to experience the new ecosystem firsthand during the dedicated Weekend Showroom Event from 24 to 26 July 2026 at the Glenmarie showroom.
