Who Is PHS Automotive Malaysia (PHSAM)?
PHSAM is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Porsche Holding Salzburg (PHS), an Austrian automotive distributor founded in 1947 and part of the Volkswagen Group. PHS operates in 29 markets globally with 39,000 employees and ranks as the largest automotive distributor in Europe. Annual revenue tops EUR 26 billion.
PHSAM took over Audi distribution in Malaysia on 1 July 2022 following the exit of Euromobil Sdn Bhd. PHSAM is the sister company to Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM); both share managing directors Erik Winter and Kurt Leitner. The dealer network has been rebuilt to 8 Audi Centres across 6 Malaysian cities:
- KL Damansara
- Glenmarie
- Setia Alam (reopened August 2022)
- Penang (Juru)
- Ipoh
- Johor Bahru
Service infrastructure includes dedicated Audi Service Centres at each location with manufacturer-trained technicians, genuine OEM parts logistics, and the #AudiOnTheMove warranty programme covering both PHSAM-distributed and parallel-imported Audi vehicles.
Euromobil-Era Warranty and Used Audi Service
The Euromobil era left a complicated aftersales picture that PHSAM has been cleaning up since 2022. Critical points for any used-Audi buyer:
Cars purchased before 1 July 2022 (Euromobil era):
- PHSAM honours the manufacturer warranty obligations on cars still within the original 5-year coverage period
- Cars already out of the original warranty pay for service like any aftermarket repair
- Service records under Euromobil are accessible at any PHSAM Audi Centre via the chassis number
- Parts logistics has improved significantly since 2022 but older models (pre-2018) can still see 4-6 week wait times
For parallel-imported / grey-market Audi vehicles:
- The Audi Plus programme provides a paid extended warranty for vehicles outside the manufacturer warranty
- The Audi Repair Package bundles service costs for older Audi models at a discount versus pay-as-you-go
- Both programmes require vehicle inspection and chassis verification at a PHSAM Audi Centre
Practical advice for used-Audi buyers: always run the chassis number through any PHSAM Audi Centre to verify remaining warranty months, accident history (if recorded in the manufacturer system), and recall completion status. This single check costs nothing and avoids the most expensive used-Audi surprises.
Audi Q7 CKD: First Locally-Assembled Audi in Southeast Asia
The Q7 S line 3.0 TFSI quattro mild-hybrid at RM 462,422 is assembled at DRB-Hicom's Pekan plant in Pahang, the same facility that builds Mercedes-Benz CKD vehicles. Production is around 3 units per day, started in May 2025, and supports both the Malaysian market and limited regional ASEAN export.
Specifications:
- 3.0L V6 TFSI mild-hybrid: 340 PS / 500 Nm
- 8-speed Tiptronic with quattro AWD
- 0-100 km/h in 5.5 seconds, top speed limited to 250 km/h
- S line exterior and interior treatment standard
- Audi Virtual Cockpit, 14.5-inch MMI infotainment with ChatGPT voice control
- Adaptive air suspension, Quattro with self-locking centre differential
- Bang and Olufsen 3D Premium Sound System (16 speakers)
The CKD designation matters for pricing: at RM 462,422 the Q7 undercuts the equivalent CBU BMW X5 xDrive40i (RM 469,800) and competes directly with the Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 CBU (RM 528,888). The previous CBU Q7 sat above RM 550,000; the CKD shift drops the entry price meaningfully.
The Audi Assurance Package adds RM 20,000 (Q7 CKD with AAP: RM 482,422), extending warranty to 5 years or 150,000 km with 5 years complimentary scheduled maintenance.
2026 Audi Q5: The New Third-Generation Launch
The third-generation Audi Q5 launched in Malaysia on 5 May 2026 in two variants:
- Q5 Advanced 2.0 TFSI: RM 352,990 (199 PS, FWD-biased Quattro ultra, standard wheelbase, 5-seat)
- Q5 Sportback S line 2.0 TFSI quattro: RM 421,990 (272 PS, full-time Quattro, coupé-roofline 5-seat)
Key 2026-spec changes:
- New PPC (Premium Platform Combustion) shared with the 2025 A5
- 14.5-inch curved OLED MMI + 11.9-inch Virtual Cockpit
- ChatGPT voice control built into the Audi voice assistant
- Bang and Olufsen 3D Premium Sound System (Sportback S line)
- Matrix LED headlights with dynamic light signature
- Audi pre sense, adaptive cruise assist with semi-autonomous lane change
- Boot capacity: 520 L (Advanced), 515 L (Sportback)
Against the BMW X3 20 xDrive CKD (RM 320,800), the Q5 Advanced commands a RM 32,190 premium for the new platform, OLED display, and ChatGPT integration. Against the Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 CKD (RM 391,888), the Q5 Sportback S line is RM 30,102 more for the coupé roof and 272 PS tune (the GLC 300 makes 258 PS).
Audi e-tron Range After the EV Duty Exemption Sunset
The CBU EV import and excise duty exemption expired on 31 December 2025, and from 1 July 2026 MITI enforces a minimum CIF of RM 200,000 (245 PS / 180 kW motor) for new CBU EV approvals. All current Audi e-tron models clear this floor comfortably:
- Q8 e-tron 55 quattro: RM 384,790-475,790 (300 PS, 89 kWh, 491 km WLTP)
- Q8 Sportback e-tron: RM 390,790-485,790
- e-tron GT quattro: RM 588,790 (476 PS dual-motor)
- RS e-tron GT: RM 793,790 (637 PS, 0-100 km/h in 3.3 seconds)
Pricing impact: unlike Tesla (which absorbed the duty hike) and BMW (which held i-range prices flat), PHSAM has not publicly committed to a 2026 e-tron price hold. As of May 2026, prices on PHSAM's site remain at 2025 levels, but new shipments after the duty-exempt stock runs out could see RM 20,000-50,000 increases per variant. Buyers wanting an Audi EV in 2026 should secure existing duty-exempt inventory through PHSAM before mid-year.
Audi RS Performance Lineup in Malaysia
The Audi Sport RS line is the full-fat performance brand, distinct from the "S" mid-tier (which PHSAM does not officially import). Current Malaysian RS lineup:
- RS 3 Sedan 2.5 TFSI quattro: RM 648,650 (2.5L 5-cyl turbo, 400 PS, 0-100 in 3.8s)
- RS 4 Avant 2.9 TFSI quattro: RM 832,655 (2.9L V6 biturbo, 450 PS, station wagon)
- RS 5 Sportback 2.9 TFSI quattro: RM 781,655 (same engine, 5-door coupé body)
- RS 6 Avant 4.0 TFSI quattro: RM 1.30m (4.0L V8 biturbo, 600 PS)
- RS 7 Sportback 4.0 TFSI quattro: around RM 1.05m (V8 biturbo, 4-door coupé)
- RS Q8 4.0 TFSI quattro: RM 1.68m (V8 biturbo SUV, flagship)
- RS e-tron GT: RM 793,790 (637 PS dual-motor EV)
Each RS engine is hand-assembled at the Audi Sport facility in Neckarsulm or Heilbronn (RS e-tron GT is built alongside the Porsche Taycan at Stuttgart). Standard equipment includes Quattro AWD, sport differential, RS Sport suspension Plus or air suspension, ceramic-brake options, and the RS-specific Virtual Cockpit display modes.
Audi Warranty and the Audi Assurance Package (AAP)
PHSAM ships Audi vehicles with:
- 2 years unlimited mileage manufacturer warranty (standard)
- Audi Assurance Package (AAP): extends to 5 years or 150,000 km
- AAP also includes: 5 years complimentary scheduled maintenance, 5-year roadside assistance
- e-tron battery warranty: 8 years or 160,000 km with 70% capacity guarantee
AAP pricing by model (added to OTR):
- Q5 Advanced: around RM 17,000
- Q5 Sportback S line: around RM 18,500
- Q7 CKD: RM 20,000
- e-tron GT: around RM 25,000
- RS Q8: around RM 35,000
Worth-it math: a single out-of-warranty turbo replacement on the 3.0 V6 TFSI costs RM 18,000-25,000; a single DSG mechatronic repair runs RM 12,000-18,000. AAP pays for itself with one major repair, and the 5-year scheduled service alone is worth RM 8,000-15,000 at Audi-specified intervals (every 15,000 km or 12 months).
Versus rivals: BMW's standard warranty is 5 years unlimited mileage (no extension needed for equivalent cover); Mercedes-Benz is 4 years unlimited mileage (Star Coverage extension from RM 1,488 covers years 5-6). Audi's AAP-equipped cars match BMW on cover length and exceed Mercedes-Benz on bundled maintenance.
How Does Audi Compare to BMW and Mercedes-Benz in Malaysia?
Price-per-class comparison across the German premium triad (2026 figures, equivalent specs):
- Subcompact SUV: Audi Q2 RM 276,710 vs BMW X1 sDrive20i CKD RM 250,800 vs Mercedes-Benz GLA 200 RM 254,888. BMW and Mercedes both undercut Audi at this tier because both CKD it.
- Compact SUV: Audi Q5 Advanced RM 352,990 vs BMW X3 20 xDrive CKD RM 320,800 vs Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 CKD RM 391,888. Mercedes priciest, BMW cheapest, Audi mid.
- Mid-large SUV: Audi Q7 CKD RM 462,422 vs BMW X5 xDrive40i CKD RM 469,800 vs Mercedes-Benz GLE 450 CBU RM 528,888. Audi wins on CKD pricing for the first time.
- Performance SUV flagship: Audi RS Q8 RM 1.68m vs BMW X7 M60i around RM 1.2m vs Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Coupé around RM 1.23m. Audi V8 biturbo positioning costs more than BMW's V8.
- Executive sedan: Audi A5 RM 449,162 vs BMW 530i M Sport CKD RM 399,800 vs Mercedes-Benz E 200 CKD RM 355,888. Mercedes cheapest, BMW middle, Audi priciest (A5 is also newer platform).
The summary: Audi has the smallest CKD footprint of the three (Q7 only), which means Audi loses on the entry tier (Q2 vs CKD BMW X1) but wins on mid-large SUV (Q7 CKD vs CBU GLE). Choose Audi for Quattro AWD character and the new Q5 / Q7 CKD value; choose BMW for broader CKD selection and stronger M halo; choose Mercedes-Benz for the largest CKD range and the Lexus-trailing but solid resale.
