Porsche has recently updated the price of its EV lineup in Malaysia, and the changes are rather significant.

What’s with the price hike by Porsche?

The official reason behind the price hike is unclear, as Porsche’s custodian in Malaysia, Sime Darby Auto Performance, didn’t make any clarification regarding it. The most plausible explanation at the moment is that the conclusion of the EV tax holiday that happened on 1 January 2026 might have finally caught up with Porsche EVs.

Without the tax holiday, Porsche EVs are subject to the full import duty rate of 30%. This is because they are imported from Germany, which didn’t receive a preferential import duty rate for CBU EVs as per certain countries like China.

While there is also MITI’s new policy for fully-imported CBU EVs, we don’t think that is the reason behind the price hike. After all, the declared cost, insurance, and freight (CIF) value of Porsche fully-electric models is definitely higher than RM200,000 while their power outputs are also way higher than MITI’s minimum requirement of 180kW (241hp).
