JPJ visits GGR Motor factory in Sungai Penchala

GGR Motor recently hosted an official visit from the Road Transport Department (JPJ) of the Federal Territory at the GGR Legacy (M) factory in Kampung Sungai Penchala last Thursday.

The working visit, which included 25 members of the JPJ Federal Territory, was led by Deputy Director Eric Jusiang to assess the operations of GGR Motor as the first local manufacturer of electric motorcycles.

According to GGR Motor’s Managing Director, Muhammad Mussaddiq Mohamed Azmi, this initiative marks an essential starting point to ensure the production of electric vehicles (EV) in the country adheres to established standards.

“We are extremely proud and honored that the JPJ WP took the time to visit our factory. It serves as recognition of our efforts in developing EV motorcycles in Malaysia,” he stated.

Eric Jusiang and his team were welcomed by the Chairman of GGR Motor, Tengku Syarif Temenggong Perlis, Datuk Seri Diraja Syed Amir Abidin Jamalullail, and Muhammad Mussaddiq.

In addition to receiving an operational briefing, the JPJ delegation was also taken on a tour of the accessory sales building, service workshop, and operational areas that support the EV ecosystem.

It is understood that GGR Motor plans to build a new assembly plant in the northern Peninsula, which will serve as a major production hub for the Lion G1 model and several upcoming models.

Built on a site of over one acre, this factory is expected to create more than 50 new job opportunities and will be strengthened through strategic collaborations with PMH Motor, Bateriku.com, MARA, and Petronas Lubricants Marketing Malaysia (PLMM).

According to Mussaddiq, the Lion G1 electric motorcycle can officially be registered through the JPJ system starting September 1.

“We anticipate that in the near future, the ordered EV motorcycles will be ready for registration. More than 6,000 units are expected to be delivered to customers soon,” he said.

Within a week of its launch, the Lion G1 recorded over 2,500 units in orders, clearly indicating the acceptance of Malaysians towards EVs as an alternative for daily mobility.

The official launch event will take place on June 28 at Saloma Kuala Lumpur, with Perniagaan Mazlan & Hashimah (PMH Motor) Sdn Bhd serving as the Exclusive Strategic Partner and main authorized dealer.

According to GGR Motor’s Managing Director, Muhammad Mussadiq Mohamed Azmi, this launch represents a starting point towards expanding the use of electric motorcycles among the public.

In addition to the launch and exhibition sessions, the event will be enlivened with evening activities such as community performances, test riding events, lucky draws, and casual activities for EV enthusiasts.

Among the artists who will add to the festive atmosphere are Johan, Cat Farish, Farid Kamil, Ajak Shiro, and Nabil Ahmad.

“I believe when artists themselves use EVs, it creates a greater impact in terms of outreach and public awareness,” he said.

Furthermore, GGR Motor has also announced sponsorship of two Lion G1 e-bikes (valued at RM2,054 each) as lucky draw prizes for attendees of the ‘Aku Muzik Kami (AMK Indie 2025)’ concert which will be held on July 26-27 in Sepang.

“This sponsorship is part of our efforts to provide benefits to our friends and to foster a spirit of change towards the use of electric vehicles,” he added.

According to specifications, the Lion G1 is powered by a single electric motor with a power output of 4 hp (3 kW) and a torque of 140 Nm, paired with a 32 Ah 72 V graphene battery pack that offers a range of up to 120 km and a top speed of 70 km/h.
