King Long Kingo Van Now Available in Mala
China Auto Manufacturers (M) Sdn Bhd (CAM), the sales and marketing arm of light commercial vehicles under Sendok Group, has launched the King Long Kingo, the new 15-seater luxury van, at its headquarters showroom in Ja- lan Kapar, Klang. CAM is the sole distributor of Xiamen King Long United Automotive Industry Co, Ltd (King Long) for vans in Malaysia.
Dato’ Abdul Majid bin Ahmad Khan, the President of Malaysia- China Friendship Association and the ex-ambassador of Malay- sia to P.R. China, was invited to officiate the launch.
CAM displayed two King Long Kingo van models, the 2.7L Pet- rol and 3.0L DK5 Diesel. Based on market requirements, CAM will focus on the 3.0L DK5 diesel model. In this category of die- sel vans, King Long Kingo is said to be the most powerful 3.0L displacement vehicle and is able to carry 15 passengers easily up and down hill to give it good value for money. The DKS diesel engine utilises Japanese technology and is seen as highly suit- able for business transport and the limousine, travel and tour market.
The King Long Kingo has a modern and luxurious exterior de- sign, and comes with 205R15C alloy wheels, projection head- lamps with LEDs (light emitting diodes) and rear LED tail lamp. The passenger car-like interior design comes with 2 rear roof lamps with ioniser and 9 air vents to supply cool air from the air- conditioner to passengers, making it suitable for a comfortable and quiet business transport option. The vehicle also comes
with safety features such as ABS (anti-lock brake system) and EBD (electronic brakeforce distribution), anti-glare rearview mir- ror and rear reverse sensor with distance buzzer.
The OTR (on the road) price for private registration, inclusive of insurance, for the 3.0L DK5 diesel King Long Kingo van is RM115,229.90. It is opened for pre-orders as the ve-
hicles would be delivered from 1st April, 2015.
King Long Kingo comes with 3 years or 100,000km warranty, and enjoys free towing during the warranty period. CAM currently has more than 50 ap- pointed service dealers throughout
Malaysia and provides a 24/7 breakdown service support.
