The Naza Group of Companies is a Malaysian business conglomerate involved in many types of businesses, ranging from motoring to education.[1] The group began operations in 1975 as a motor trading company. The motoring sector remains the most important sector for the group.
The group has business divisions including vehicle and bike distribution, motor-trading, manufacturing, property development, food and beverage, hospitality, transportation services, limousine services, automotive education, plantations, cigarette distribution, and non-financial services. The group was founded and led by Malaysian business tycoon Tan Sri SM Nasimuddin SM Amin until his death on May 1, 2008.[2]
Naza Group is the franchise holder for Ferrari, Maserati, Koenigsegg, Kia Motors, Peugeot, Chevrolet, Citroën, Brabus, Ducati, Harley-Davidson, Piaggio, Vespa, Aprilia, Gilera and Indian Motorcycle brands in Malaysia.[3]
Naza has marketed rebadged versions of Kia's Carnival, Carens, and Picanto vehicles as Naza Ria, Naza Citra,[4] and Naza Suria[5] respectively, for the Malaysian market. In April 2006, Naza developed the Naza Sutera based on Hafei Lobo. It was joined by a Naza-badged version of the Peugeot 206 called the Naza 206 Bestari in May 2006, and a Naza-badged version of the Kia Picanto called the Naza Picanto in November 2006.
