In July 2026, 15.7% of all new vehicles registered were electrified, meaning either a hybrid or a fully electric vehicle. In other words, the electrified share of the market has more than doubled in twelve months. Roughly one in every six new cars registered in July had a plug or a hybrid system, up from about one in fourteen a year ago. Through 2026 the two have converged, and they are now running neck and neck: July saw 6,937 EVs and 5,622 hybrids registered. But at the current rate of change, the day when one in five new cars in Malaysia is electrified is no longer far off.
