Volvo Car Malaysia opens new 2S centre in Kuching

Volvo Car Malaysia has officially opened a new 2S (Service & Spare Parts) centre in Kuching, Sarawak, marking a significant step in strengthening its network across East Malaysia.

Operating under the Sebangga Group, the new facility takes over the familiar automotive space along Jalan Pending – ensuring local Volvo owners continue to receive seamless, premium care.

Currently, Volvo Car Kuching is entirely dedicated to after-sales service and parts. However, Sebangga Mitsinbo is already laying the groundwork to upgrade the site into an official dealership. In the meantime, customers looking to purchase a new Volvo can still place their orders through Sebangga Mitsinbo’s established Kota Kinabalu branch.

Chris Wailes, Managing Director of Volvo Car Malaysia and Thailand, shared: “Our relationship with customers is very important to us. We are deeply committed to maintaining a robust, accessible network of service centres – and soon, complete dealerships across Malaysia.

“Bringing Sebangga Mitsinbo into Kuching ensures our Sarawakian owners get the uncompromising care they deserve, cementing this centre as a key pillar in our wider national network.”

Dato’ Arif Ambrose Ng, Chairman of Sebangga Group, added: “We are incredibly proud to build on our partnership with Volvo Car Malaysia and finally bring the Sebangga footprint into Sarawak. Our presence will allow us to immediately start looking after the local Volvo community.

“We are hyper-focused on delivering top-tier service today, but we are already looking forward to transforming this space into a complete sales destination in the near future.”
