Zelostech RoboVan Secures the First Official Malaysian License Plate
Cyberjaya, Malaysia, November 11 — An official Malaysian registration plate now marks the next stage of Zelostech’s autonomous logistics programme in the country, as its RoboVan prepares for public-road testing alongside everyday traffic in Cyberjaya. This development makes Zelostech the first and the only RoboVan company to receive the Malaysian license plate.
The vehicle, deployed by Zelostech’s Malaysian partner, Autonomous Logistic Solutions Sdn Bhd (ALS), has received its registration plate for testing on the Malaysia Autonomous Vehicle (MyAV) route. The milestone builds on what ALS identifies as Malaysia’s first public-road testing permit for Level 4 autonomous logistics vehicles, moving the programme beyond controlled premises into a mixed-traffic urban environment.
The registration supports an authorised testing programme on designated public roads, with the RoboVan operating without a driver or passenger onboard under remote supervision.
Bringing Autonomous Logistics into Mixed Traffic
The planned six-month trial covers Cyberjaya’s approximately 22-kilometre MyAV route, where the RoboVan will encounter the road layouts, junctions and traffic conditions that shape everyday urban transport.
ALS is responsible for localising Zelostech’s technology and managing operations in Malaysia. Its Remote Operations Centre in Cyberjaya, launched with Sidec and Cyberview in July, provides the supervision infrastructure supporting the public-road program.
During testing, the teams will monitor autonomous driving performance, operating hours, distance travelled, completed trips and system interventions. These records will help evaluate how the vehicle performs over repeated journeys and inform subsequent deployment planning.
Building on Closed-Site Experience
The public-road programme follows a six-month trial at Pos Malaysia’s National Mail Centre in Shah Alam, where the RoboVan logged more than 1,000 kilometres carrying out point-to-point pallet transfers across at least two daily shifts.
That work provided experience in a defined logistics environment before the transition to public roads. Cyberjaya introduces a broader range of interactions, extending the evaluation from transport within a facility to autonomous goods movement alongside regular road users.
The public-road initiative was announced at Transport Expo Asia 2026 in October, in the presence of Malaysian Transport Minister Anthony Loke. Receipt of the vehicle’s registration plate provides a further step in putting that programme into practice.
Turning International Experience into Local Deployment
Zelostech’s progress in Malaysia builds on its pioneering autonomous logistics deployments in Singapore, demonstrating its ability to take RoboVans into new markets and advance through local testing, registration and public-road deployment requirements. In Malaysia, its technology powers the country’s first authorised Level 4 autonomous logistics public-road trial, extending that experience into another regulatory and operating environment.
These milestones reflect capabilities developed through actual deployment: adapting vehicles to local requirements, validating autonomous driving performance and integrating fleet supervision with existing logistics workflows. From Singapore to Cyberjaya, Zelostech is establishing a track record of bringing autonomous logistics onto overseas roads, with practical experience that supports further international expansion.
