The staff at the store who spoke Chinese were very helpful, but the car's condition was old (over 100,000 kilometers) and dirty. When the car was handed over, it was very dirty with multiple bird droppings and the seats inside were not clean, with visible dust.
Avoid renting from this company in Malaysia, called Galaxy Asia Car Central. Chinese car rental companies are all scams, and they bully Chinese customers. I picked up the car in Penang and returned it in Kuala Lumpur. I took a video of the car showing some scratches on the left front bumper when I picked it up. The staff said it doesn't matter since I had full insurance. When returning the car at Kuala Lumpur T2, the inspection was incredibly thorough, like a safety car scan. I've driven in many countries, but have never encountered such a meticulous return inspection. They even used a flashlight to check the undercarriage. It felt like a blatant scam. They claimed that there were new scratches on the left front bumper. I insisted it wasn't possible since I hadn't had any incidents. They checked my video and still claimed the scratches were new and demanded payment. I was furious, it felt like outright robbery. I told them even if it was my fault, the full insurance should cover it, and besides, I didn't cause those scratches. They insisted that I would have to pay first and get a refund after filing an insurance claim. Coincidentally, another car returned at the same time had the same issue with alleged new scratches on the undercarriage. This company clearly targets Chinese customers. In the end, since I had full insurance, they made a few calls and then said it was their mistake and the damage was originally there. We were at T1 terminal, but the car was at T2 and they refused to provide a drop service. Renting a car in Kuala Lumpur is the worst experience I have had worldwide. I will never come back to this country.

About ASIA CAR:9.7/10
Yes, they upgraded us to a bigger van (at no additional charge) as the one we booked was not available at the time. we also arrived later, by 2:30 hours as there was a delay in our flight but I was in constant communication with galaxy asia staffs and they were in fact the 1st one to inform me of my flight delay without me knowing! (means they were actually tracking my arrival!) Kudos to the team.
Upon arriving, pick up was seamless and they gave very clear instructions. Best ever rental I've worked with so far in the few years of renting !
Staff are very friendly. Very easy and smooth process to pick up & drop the car. I got free upgrade to the bigger car. Many thanks to the staff. Will surely come back to rent again. Thank you Galaxy Asia
