In line with the theme “Energy Efficient Vehicles to the Future”, this year’s show will highlight the latest line-up of energy efficient vehicles, with a showcase of automated driving.
MAEPS is the largest exhibition space in Malaysia and is connected by four major highways which serve the whole of the Klang Valley.
