With the highest GDP per capita of 10,823 USD in 2014[i] among the TCC partner countries, Malaysia’s car ownership rate equaled 390 passenger cars for every 1,000 Malaysians in 2014[ii], which is also the highest of all TCC partner countries. Unsurprisingly, the share of 2/3-wheeler of the total number of passenger cars and 2/3-wheelers is the lowest of all TCC partner countries and equaled 49.0% in 2013.[iii]
