OSAKA, 19 May 2025 – MCE Holdings Berhad (“MCE”) today announced that it has formalised a joint venture (JV) with Nanjing Chuhang Technology Co. Ltd (“NCT”), a pioneer in automotive millimeter-wave radar technology.

The signing took place at the Malaysia Pavilion during World Expo 2025 Osaka, as part of the Malaysia Automotive, Robotics and IoT Institute’s (MARii) NxGv: Game Changer in Energy Transition and Mobility event, and was witnessed by Pavilion Director Ellyza Mastura and MARii CEO Azrul Reza Aziz.

Formed through MCE’s wholly owned subsidiary, MCE Ventures Sdn Bhd, the agreement builds on the Memorandum of Understanding signed in November 2024.

The new JV company will develop, manufacture, and market automotive millimeter-wave radar, a key component of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and automated driving applications, for the domestic market and global markets, excluding China.

These sensors are essential to vehicle safety and serve as a core enabler of next-generation vehicles equipped with assisted or autonomous driving functions, allowing them to detect, interpret, and respond to their surroundings with precision and reliability.

The JV strengthens both parties’ positions in these fast-growing segments and enhances their ability to meet rising global demand for intelligent mobility solutions.

Dr. Goh Kar Chun <吴佳骏医生>, Group Managing Director of MCE said, “This joint venture with Nanjing Chuhang Technology is an important leap for MCE as we expand our expertise and broaden our offerings in advanced automotive electronics.”

“It prepares us to cater to the growing global demand for smart mobility technologies and reinforces our ambition to deliver high-value and sophisticated solutions from Malaysia for domestic market as well as to the world,” Goh concluded.

By combining NCT’s cutting-edge radar technology with MCE’s manufacturing capabilities, the partnership will deliver advanced radar solutions while serving as a launchpad for global expansion.

It also aligns with MCE’s goals of strengthening its automotive electronics portfolio, promoting high-value manufacturing.

Under the JV, MCE will own 51 percent, with the remaining 49 percent held by NCT.

MCE is a leading original equipment manufacturer (OEM) engaged in the engineering, design and manufacturing of automotive electronics and mechatronic parts for the Malaysian and regional markets.
