“In the premium segment, the product is not the sole factor in the consumer’s purchase decision. What’s equally important is the value, quality, and accessibility of services that they can enjoy throughout their journey with the brand,” said Mr Nalin Jain, Managing Director of Volvo Car Malaysia.

Mr Jain had been instrumental in the second phase of Volvo Car Malaysia’s new transformation strategy which not only looks at the revitalisation of the brand’s retail presence but also an overhaul of existing technologies, processes, and people.

“We are looking at incorporating technologies and processes that adds value to our customers’ lives – like our cars, everything we do must add meaning to the experiences of our customers – that is how we would like to impress them,” adds Mr Jain.
