Sime Motors consolidates its pre-owned car businesses under  Auto Selection brand 

SINGAPORE, 6 May 2025 – Sime Motors, the automotive arm of Sime Darby Berhad  (Sime), has announced the consolidation of its pre-owned car businesses in Singapore under a unified brand, Auto Selection. Beyond its presence in Malaysia and Hong Kong, this move  brings together Performance Premium Selection Limited (PPSL) and Sime Darby Auto  Selection (SDAS) under the refreshed brand, with its legal entity as Sime Darby Auto  Selection Limited. 

By combining the strengths of both businesses, Auto Selection offers customers a one-stop destination for the widest selection of certified pre-owned BMWs and high-quality multi-brand  used cars. It embodies the hallmark qualities of trust, professionalism and premium  experience long associated with Sime. 

“Auto Selection is more than a refreshed brand; it represents a strategic consolidation that  enhances customer convenience, expands choice and ensures consistent quality,” said Mr  Jeffrey Gan, Managing Director, Southeast Asia, Sime. “At the same time, it reinforces Sime’s growing presence across the retail automotive value chain in the region, from new to  pre-owned vehicles.”

Positioning for Future Growth
Pre-owned vehicles form an essential part of the whole automotive ecosystem in Singapore.
By directly retailing traded-in cars, Auto Selection can offer more competitive trade-in values,
enhancing a customer’s overall purchase consideration.

It also creates opportunities to convert pre-owned car buyers into potential BMW owners for
Performance Motors Limited (PML), its sister company and authorised dealer for BMW in
Singapore.

“Our pre-owned business is an important touchpoint for customers entering the world of
premium automotive ownership,” said Mr Lawrence Tan, Managing Director, Performance
Motors Limited. “This refreshed identity of Auto Selection gives PML an opportunity to extend
our many customer experience initiatives and service innovations to pre-owned BMW owners
as well. It reflects PML’s commitment to provide even greater value, variety and assurance,
no matter where you are in your car ownership journey.”

Through its new “All Access to Joy” programme, PML will extend its customer engagement
activities, currently exclusive for its new and existing BMW owners, to include Auto
Selection’s pre-owned customers. These include access to exclusive BMW events, BMW
Service Inclusive packages and other privileges.

An Even Better Pre-owned Car Dealership
Auto Selection will continue to build on the strong foundations of PPSL and SDAS:

• PPSL is Singapore’s only authorised certified pre-owned BMW dealership under its global BMW Premium Selection programme. Certified Pre-owned BMW cars are less than five years old, with a mileage under 120,000km, and have undergone strict vehicle inspection with approved service history. Its team of Certified Sales Consultants provides end-to-end guidance, giving buyers added peace of mind. PPSL also offers customers the widest range of pre-owned BMW cars in the Singapore market.

• SDAS has earned a trusted reputation for accessible, and affordable pre-owned cars from multiple automotive brands. Its certified vehicles have passed stringent levels of pre-sale inspection and come with extended warranties. Customers can also conveniently request a trade-in valuation online as part of its push into digitalisation.

Under Auto Selection, customers will continue to be assured of the highest quality pre-owned
cars, as well as a wide range of trusted services including test drives, trade-in valuations,
finance and insurance, vehicle delivery and after-sales support.

Upping the ante, all Auto Selection’s pre-owned cars, including non-BMW Premium
Selection and non-BMW retail cars, will come with a one-year extended warranty.

“The strength of our pre-owned car business is in the trust we have earned from customers
over the years,” said Mr Christopher Chin, Managing Director, Auto Selection and FASST
Leasing. “Auto Selection brings together everything our customers have come to love, and
more. Whether you are looking for a Certified Pre-owned BMW or a reliable used car of
another make, Auto Selection will be your trusted partner and convenient one stop
destination for pre-owned cars, backed by one of the most established and respected
automotive groups in the Asia Pacific.”

Auto Selection continues to set the benchmark for premium service, trusted solutions and an
elevated ownership experience across borders in Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong.

Auto Selection showrooms in Singapore are located at 1 Ubi Road 4, Singapore 408607, and
280 Kampong Arang Road, Singapore 438180.
