Luxury meets sustainability as Batik Air introduces exclusive Private Terminal Transfer service with the Leapmotor C10.
Batik Air has reinforced its commitment to both premium travel experiences and environmental responsibility by relaunching its exclusive Private Terminal Transfer service for Business Class passengers. The service now features a groundbreaking partnership with Leapmotor Malaysia, the first New Energy Vehicle (NEV) brand introduced by Stellantis Malaysia.
The collaboration introduces a fleet of all-electric Leapmotor C10 SUVs, bringing unprecedented levels of comfort, efficiency, and sophistication to Batik Air’s premium transfer service at Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).
“Travel should be effortless, and at Batik Air, we believe our Business Class guests deserve nothing less,” said Datuk Chandran Rama Muthy, Batik Air Chief Executive Officer. “This VIP Transfer Service isn’t just about moving between terminals—it’s about redefining the journey with innovation, care, and a touch of exclusivity.”
Award-Winning Electric Vehicle Technology
The Leapmotor C10 stands as one of the brand’s pioneering models on the global stage, resulting from the comprehensive Stellantis and Leapmotor partnership. Malaysia holds the distinction of being the first Southeast Asian market to receive this innovative vehicle.
This D-segment battery-electric SUV offers impressive credentials:
- 424KM (WLTP) emissions-free driving range
- French Design Award 2024 recipient
- US MUSE Design Award 2024 winner
- Innovative 3D ergonomic seat design
- Bio-based OEKO-Tex Standard 100 textile materials
- One-step recline feature for enhanced back support
- Segment-leading legroom and headroom
- 415-liter cargo space (expandable to 1,410 liters)
Seamless Terminal Transfers for Premium Passengers
The exclusive service provides Business Class passengers with chauffeured transportation between Gate G1 at KLIA’s Main Terminal Building and Gate C1 at the Satellite Building. With five dedicated Leapmotor C10 vehicles in operation, waiting times are significantly reduced compared to standard transfer options.
This premium service complements the existing bus transfers provided by Malaysia Airports (MAHB) during the temporary suspension of the aerotrain service, offering Business Class travelers a more refined alternative.
Isaac Yeo, Managing Director, ASEAN, Stellantis, emphasized the alignment between premium air travel and sustainable luxury ground transportation: “The Leapmotor C10 redefines premium travel, delivering unparalleled comfort and sophistication for discerning passengers. This exceptional electric SUV embodies our vision for environmentally responsible mobility while offering a seamless and refined experience.”
Leading the Way in Sustainable Premium Travel
The partnership between Batik Air and Leapmotor represents a significant step forward in the aviation industry’s efforts to embrace sustainability throughout the travel experience. By incorporating electric vehicles into their premium service offerings, Batik Air demonstrates that luxury and environmental responsibility can go hand-in-hand.
Business travelers can now enjoy not only the comfort and convenience of Batik Air’s premium cabin experience but also the peace of mind that comes with choosing a more sustainable ground transportation option.
