HLYM launches BLU network, plans to expand Malaysian lineup to more than 20 models

Hong Leong Yamaha Motor (HLYM) has announced plans to expand its Big Bike business in Malaysia.

The move is in line with the rapid growth of the country’s motorcycle segment for models with engine capacities of 250 cc and above.

Expanding the model lineup

To strengthen its market position, HLYM will revamp its Big Bike operations for fully imported (CBU) models.

Under this strategy, HLYM will expand its existing lineup from seven to more than 20 models, comprising both CBU and locally assembled (CKD) motorcycles.

To support this initiative, HLYM has partnered with Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. and DRB-HICOM Auto Solutions Sdn Bhd (DHAS), bringing together expertise in manufacturing, distribution and assembly.
