KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 15 — Malaysia is now home to Southeast Asia’s first and only DS Automobiles signature showroom that was officially launched by local distributor Naza Euro Motors Sdn Bhd yesterday.

The showroom’s concept is based on the French premium carmaker’s signature design philosophy for its outlets in key global markets, and is inspired by the brand’s spirit of modernity and innovation.

“The DS Store is about inviting visitors to immerse themselves in the values of the DS brand and gives visitors sophistication at their fingertips to configure, personalise and view their new DS,” Naza Automotive Group chief executive Datuk Samson Anand George said.

Samson added that the RM2 million store was only the latest step in his group’s vision for DS in Malaysia and disclosed plans to embark on an ambitious campaign to make the brand a household name.
