Owners of existing electric vehicles (EVs) who are looking to change their vehicle licence plate to the new JPJePlate, which was launched on September 9, will be able to do so starting from this weekend.
Handal Ceria, the local vendor appointed to issue the plate, has announced that sales of the dedicated plate for fully electric vehicles will be open to all EV car owners from November 9. It added that it has already begun e-mailing those who have registered their interest via the JPJePlate website.
The JPJePlate is priced at RM98, and for that outlay you get a front (RFID-equipped) and rear aluminium plate as well as a third licence plate. in the form of a security sticker attached to the windshield.
The IDeStix windshield sticker has the same functionality as the front plate, containing a RAIN RFID chip and a QR code, offering a further layer of identification security – it is non-removable, and will be destroyed should there be an attempt to remove it.
Owners of existing EVs will be able to apply for the plate directly without needing to go back to the company they bought the vehicle from, but the plates will still have to be fixed at an authorised fitment centre. With nearly 500 authorised installers located across the country, buyers should have no issue finding one near them. The complete list of authorised JPJePlate installers can be found here.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
so have to fork out rm 100 for nothing
Don’t you think it is stupid to have another sticker on the windscreen?
Thought we got away with physical road tax, no longer need stickers, now another sticker is required.
Why happens if we change our tinted or windscreen (cracked); pay again to get the sticker?
Is it ok if we don’t stick the sticker or we risk getting summoned?
Instead of only the number plate, now need to maintain one more item which is the sticker on windscreen?
Don’t you think this is creating complexity?
Ini lah politician disconnect…They don’t face this problem cos ada orang suruhan to do for them. When you have to bikin sendiri, lain cerita la
Good point. I ordered mine yesterday and I don’t plan on fitting the sticker. Will keep it with me. Moreover, the RFID functionality on the number plate does not connect with TnG RFID (yet). It is made future-proof in case there is future use for the RFID on the plates.
The new car plate for EV just like airport LIMO
why the font is different from the normal JPJ spec?
quit creating double standard and make those ev owners feel special and syok sendiri, implement it on all cars since it is so good
some said newspaper 28 Nov 2023 (Thursday) said owners who registered before Sept 9 can replace jplate for free is it ?
