BMW Group Malaysia today introduced its new Corporate Programme where organisations as well as small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Malaysia are now able to purchase and own BMW and MINI vehicles at a very attractive cost of ownership with exceptional benefits.

SMEs must be registered with the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM), respective authorities of district offices in Sabah or Sarawak or respective statutory bodies for professional service providers.
Meanwhile, public listed companies on the main board as well as subsidiaries of public-listed companies on the main board, large firms, multinational corporations (MNCs), government-linked companies (GLCs), Syarikat Menteri Kewangan Diperbadankan (MKDs) and state-owned enterprises can enjoy a 4% rebate for every fleet purchase of 4 to 7 units while companies that purchase 8 units and more are entitled to a 6% rebate.
