The Land Rover brand came into Sime Darby Motors’ fold in 1981, both in Malaysia and Singapore.
Its association with the brand expanded into China’s retail market in 2010 with the establishment of a Jaguar and Land Rover dealership in Shanghai. In 2014, Sime Darby Motors entered into a joint venture with Sisma Auto Sdn Bhd, the official distributor of Jaguar, and obtained sole distributorship rights for both Jaguar and Land Rover vehicles in Malaysia.
