PETALING JAYA: Companies bringing in electric vehicles have seen a rise in demand, some by up to 100%, since tax exemptions and incentives for the sector were announced under Budget 2022.

With that in mind, Malay Vehicle Importers and Traders Association of Malaysia (Pekema) vice-president Raja Petra Marudin said the priority should now be on electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure such as charging stations.
