Betamek Berhad ("Betamek" or the "Company"), an Original Design Manufacturer ("ODM") and a leading player in electronics manufacturing services ("EMS”) for the automotive industry, is pleased to share that the Company participated in the Daihatsu Motor Co., Ltd. (“DMC”) exhibition today in Osaka, Japan.  Teaming up with Perodua, Malaysia’s largest vehicle manufacturer, Betamek showcased its cutting-edge telematics solutions, which are set to redefine automotive safety, connectivity, and convenience.

This marks the fourth batch of the DMC exhibition, an annual event prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Perodua selected a few key vendors to participate each year, and Betamek is the only vendor to have participated in all four batches, including the latest post-pandemic return, after the last event in 2019.

Betamek highlighted its advanced telematics system, co-developed with Perodua, featuring seamless Over-The-Air (“OTA”) software updates, enabling vehicles to receive the latest enhancements without needing physical service centre visits. This ensures that the vehicle’s systems remain optimised and up to date, improving both performance and user convenience.

Encik Muhammad Fauzi Bin Abd Ghani, Executive Director of Betamek, explained, “Our telematics solutions provide vehicle owners with unprecedented control and connectivity. From remote vehicle management to real-time tracking, these innovations enhance safety, convenience, and performance. The ability to receive updates wirelessly through OTA technology ensures vehicles remain at the cutting edge without any hassle.”

The telematics solution also offers remote vehicle control, allowing drivers to manage essential vehicle functions such as locking and unlocking doors, starting the engine, and adjusting air conditioning directly from their smartphone application. Real-time tracking and geofencing add security by enabling owners to monitor vehicle locations and set virtual boundaries with alerts if the vehicle moves outside the area.

In the event of a collision, accident alerts and the E-Call system automatically notifies emergency services and designated family members, ensuring timely assistance. Betamek’s telematics system also supports smart charging management for electric vehicles (EVs), allowing users to schedule charging, locate stations, and monitor charging status—addressing the growing needs of the evolving automotive market.

Encik Muhammad Fauzi added, “Our participation in the DMC exhibition with Perodua highlights our unwavering commitment to advancing automotive technology. By developing and showcasing these cutting-edge telematics solutions, we are setting a new benchmark in vehicle intelligence and connectivity, offering drivers not only a more convenient experience but also essential safety features that ensure peace of mind.”

The collaboration between Betamek and Perodua continues to drive significant advancements in the automotive industry. The introduction of this telematics system marks another milestone in their shared journey toward creating smarter, more integrated automotive solutions. As the automotive industry moves towards smarter, more connected vehicles, Betamek and Perodua remain at the forefront of this transformation.
