What is KLIMS 2026?
Not only does KLIMS 2026 showcase the latest rides, it also promotes electrified vehicle adoption and green technology advancements, fostering growth between local manufacturers, SMEs and global players alike with booths from over 128 renowned auto brands. The grand opening ceremony on 11 June 2026 saw over 900 invited guests attending including YB Tuan Syed Ibrahim bin Syed Noh, Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability, and YBhg Datuk Hairil Yahri Yaacob, Secretary General of Ministry of Investment, Trade, and Industry.
Speaking at the ceremony, YB Datuk Haji Hasbi bin Haji Habibollah highlighted Malaysia’s commitment to transitioning towards sustainable and high-value mobility solutions, “Around the world, we are witnessing rapid advancements in electrification, connected technologies, intelligent transport systems, automation, road safety, and alternative energy solutions. These developments are reshaping how we design vehicles, build infrastructure, and plan our cities. As we speak about the future of mobility, safety must remain at the centre of our agenda. New mobility must not only be cleaner and more connected; it must also help reduce crashes, protect vulnerable road users, and support safer behaviour on our roads. Together, we can move Malaysia–beyond mobility.”
Mohd Shamsor bin Mohd Zain, President of the Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) and Chairman of the KLIMS 2026 Organising Committee, shared about the event’s significance, “In recent years, the mobility industry has shifted to beyond transportation. Today, mobility is no longer just about how people commute, it is a reflection on how cities function and how technology connects communities through smarter and more sustainable solutions. KLIMS 2026 continues the same theme, “Beyond Mobility”, representing the transformation of the automotive industry from traditional transportation into a broader ecosystem with intelligent mobility solutions. We continue to see the shift of Malaysians towards adopting new technology and improved innovations in their everyday lives.” For more on KLIMS 2026, check out their official page at https://klims.com.my/
