Commemorating World EV Day 2025 with a bold step towards a greener and cleaner future
KUALA LUMPUR, 3 September 2025 – Get ready to see a flash of ‘green’ as Pos Malaysia Berhad (“Pos Malaysia”) the national post and parcel service provider, supercharges its unparalleled delivery network with the official handover of 136 all-electric Maxus eDeliver 3 vans from Weststar Maxus and with its leasing partner, Yinson GreenTech.
This isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a quiet revolution on wheels. This strategic move reinforces Pos Malaysia’s commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals, while aligning with Malaysia’s ambition for a low-carbon and energy-efficient future. The new EVs will join the existing 1,252 two-wheel and 264 four-wheel all-electric fleet – the largest electric vehicle fleet in the country’s logistics sector – significantly reducing carbon emissions and ensuring mail and parcel deliveries are completed in a more sustainable way.
Held in conjunction with World EV Day, the ceremony marks another key step in Pos Malaysia’s ongoing transformation journey, including delivering a greener logistics footprint, reinforcing the company’s commitment to reducing carbon emissions and achieving a fully electric fleet by 2030, and being net-zero by 2050.
Pos Malaysia Berhad’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Charles Brewer said, “We are not just delivering mail and parcels, we are delivering a better tomorrow. The addition of 136 electric vans to our existing fleet marks a significant milestone in Pos Malaysia’s journey toward a sustainable future. And for the first time we will be deploying these all-electric vehicles to our East Malaysia locations, ensuring that our electric vehicles now serve the rakyat across the entire nation.
“This exciting partnership with Maxus and Yinson GreenTech plugs us directly into the future of logistics. It’s a win for our customers, a win for employees and a huge win for our planet. With every letter and parcel we deliver, we are embedding the values of environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and good governance into everything we do, and it is a privilege to lead with responsibility and innovation.
“The sleek new vans are packed with modern features, making every route more efficient and every delivery a smoother experience. So keep an eye out, we will be delivering the cleaner, greener smile in the last mile – The future of delivery is electric!” added Brewer.
Tan Sri Dr. Syed Azman Syed Ibrahim, Group Managing Director of The Weststar Group, said, “The introduction of the Maxus eDeliver 3 into Pos Malaysia’s fleet is a proud moment for Weststar Maxus. It embodies our commitment to driving sustainable mobility solutions for the nation. The Maxus eDeliver 3 is not just an electric van – it is a symbol of innovation, environmental responsibility, and the strength of collaboration between industry leaders working towards a shared vision. As one of Malaysia’s pioneers in electric commercial vehicles, Weststar Maxus is honoured to support Pos Malaysia in this milestone initiative. Together, we are contributing to Malaysia’s low-carbon future, supporting the nation’s climate goals, and ensuring that cleaner, more efficient logistics solutions are made available to every corner of the country.”
Syed Muhammad Ammar Syed Azman, Chief Executive Officer of Weststar Automotive Division, added, “Malaysia’s Budget 2025 and industry projections have created a positive environment for EV adoption in the country. Pos Malaysia’s bold step in expanding its EV fleet is both timely and inspirational, as it not only reduces emissions but also demonstrates leadership in setting the benchmark for sustainable logistics in Malaysia and the wider ASEAN region. For Weststar Maxus, today’s handover of the Maxus eDeliver 3 goes beyond the delivery of vehicles – it reflects a shared commitment to building a transport ecosystem anchored on sustainability, innovation, and efficiency. As a frontrunner in the commercial EV sector, we remain dedicated to supporting our partners and the nation in shaping a cleaner and smarter transport future.”
The new Maxus electric vans are leased through Yinson GreenTech’s innovative green mobility solutions, who will also be providing comprehensive after‑sales support and hassle‑free maintenance for the entire fleet. Additionally, Yinson GreenTech will be integrating digital smart technology services such as telematics intelligence, route optimisation and fleet utilisation dashboard to optimise fleet management, safety and energy efficiency across Pos Malaysia’s operations. Previously, Yinson GreenTech successfully delivered a total of 143 CAM EC35 e-vans to the national courier in 2024.
This electrification partnership exemplifies how local collaborations can power significant strides in ESG compliance and clean technology adoption and represents a tangible step in Pos Malaysia’s phased EV rollout plan, which began in 2023.
Kelvin Soon, Managing Director of drivEV, also shared his perspective on the partnership, “Yinson GreenTech is proud to once again collaborate with Pos Malaysia on their electrification journey as they advance their ESG goals. It is both a privilege and a responsibility to be entrusted by Pos Malaysia for this important phase in their sustainable transformation. Their trust in us inspires our team to go above and beyond, and we were determined to ensure the timely delivery of these electric vans to support their ambitious transition. We look forward to our continued partnership as we accelerate Malaysia’s progress in making its logistics sector greener.”
As part of its ESG roadmap, Pos Malaysia is developing a fully integrated and sustainable logistics ecosystem aimed at reducing environmental impact across the entire value chain. Each electric van deployed contributes to this goal by reducing up to 1.11 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually, effectively lowering both the carbon footprint per parcel and the overall cost per delivery.
Demonstrating its leadership in sustainable logistics, Pos Malaysia currently operates the largest electric vehicle (EV) fleet in the Malaysian logistics sector, comprising 1,252 electric bikes and 264 electric vans. Collectively, these vehicles have covered over 7.2 million kilometres of emissions-free last-mile deliveries — the equivalent of circumnavigating the globe 179 times. This initiative is part of a broader commitment to fully electrify the fleet and achieve 100% green first- and last-mile deliveries by 2030, in line with the company’s long-term decarbonisation objectives.
Pos Malaysia plans to further expand its EV fleet in 2026 and beyond to achieve net-zero carbon emissions for its operations by 2050, as it continues to explore partnerships in renewable energy charging infrastructure, route optimisation, and carbon reporting tools. Every initiative is part of the larger goal to ensure sustainable delivery for every Malaysian, today and tomorrow.
