Perodua is increasing the number of sales outlets that can receive bookings for the Perodua QV-E — Malaysia’s first “home-grown” electric vehicle (EV) — to 34 selected locations in Peninsular Malaysia.
This marks a significant expansion over the nine locations announced during the initial launch of the Perodua QV-E earlier this month. Perodua President and Chief Executive Officer, Dato’ Sri Zainal Abidin Ahmad, explained that this expansion is due to the “healthy interest” from customers across the country.

To make bookings more straightforward, Perodua is also introducing manual bookings for its customers. Zainal said, “Originally, we requested our customers to make their booking through our super-app, P Circle, but some of our customers asked to include the normal option of booking collection.”

Perodua is also simplifying its communications on the terms and conditions for the Battery as a Service (BAAS) programme via a new infographic.
The Perodua QV-E is priced at RM80,000 on the road, without insurance, and importantly, excluding the battery pack. The battery is offered through Perodua’s BAAS programme, which costs RM275 per month over 108 months (nine years). Perodua has assured that this monthly rate is capped to protect customers from future price increases.
Under the BAAS package, the battery is fully maintained by Perodua during the leasing period. This includes a 100% warranty and 100% maintenance coverage, providing peace of mind for QV-E owners. Past the 108 months, the vehicle can still be driven with the existing battery at no added cost to the customer, as the batteries are expected to maintain a battery health of over 70% for more than nine years.
But in the event that the battery health falls below 70%, customers can choose to commence a new leasing agreement with Perodua, at the same RM275 monthly payment as before. Perodua will then replace the battery in the vehicle – all at no cost to the customer.
Should an owner decide to sell the QV-E, the transaction must be carried out through Perodua’s Pre-Owned Vehicle Department. This allows the original owner to be removed from the leasing agreement, and the new owner to be registered accordingly, as the 108-month battery subscription is transferable.
As an example, if the original owner sells the QV-E with 50 months already paid for under the plan, the new owner will only need to continue the remaining 58 months at the same rate.
