On September 6th, 2025, the rooftop of MyTown Cheras transformed into a festival of engines, music, and lifestyle as Bateriku.com proudly hosted the 4th Annual MotorManiac.

What started four years ago as a gathering for car lovers has now evolved into one of Malaysia’s most anticipated automotive lifestyle events, a place where passion meets culture, and where industry leaders, enthusiasts, and lifestyle seekers converge under one roof.

MotorManiac 2025: Driving Passion, Culture, and Community to New Heights

This year’s edition was not just about showcasing cars. It was about building connections, celebrating creativity, and driving forward a culture that unites communities across generations.

Behind the Scenes: The Dedication That Powers MotorManiac

The success of MotorManiac 2025 was no accident. Preparations began days in advance, with the Bateriku team working tirelessly to perfect every detail. By sunrise on event day, crews were already on-site, setting up ticketing counters, water stations, and marshalling points.

The morning briefing, led by MotorManiac’s very own Mike, ensured that every staff member from ground crew to event managers was aligned on the mission. The same commitment Bateriku applies to keeping drivers safe on the road was mirrored in its dedication to delivering a seamless, secure, and unforgettable event experience.

The Morning Kickoff: Innovation Meets Engagement

By 10 AM, the rooftop was buzzing. Visitors made their way to the Bateriku booth, which stood as both a showcase of innovation and a hub of trust. Alongside strategic partners, the booth offered more than just products, it was a window into the future of mobility, protection, and convenience.

• Astra, the mechanics’ choice of batteries, proudly displayed its SIRIM-certified range. As the only brand offering GPA Takaful coverage of up to RM7,000 through BIRU, Astra reaffirmed its place as a trusted name in power and reliability.
• BIRU, Bateriku’s insurtech arm, demonstrated its growing ecosystem by introducing insurance solutions that extend beyond motor coverage to travel, fire, marine cargo, contractor projects and many more to come.
• Bgarage stole attention with unbeatable deals — from discounted motor oils to RM10 Astra wipers for any car model — showcasing affordability without compromise.

Interactive activities, like the Mystery Box game, added fun to the mix. Lucky winners walked away with vouchers worth RM100, leaving visitors with smiles and stories to share.

Merchandise That Defined Lifestyle

Car culture is as much about identity as it is about engines, and MotorManiac 2025 proved this through its exclusive merchandise corner.

In collaboration with Headers.inc, the collection featured limited-edition apparel that resonated deeply with enthusiasts. Items like long-sleeve shirts, racing-inspired lanyards, and tees packaged in Hot Wheels-style boxes turned simple purchases into collector’s experiences.

Other lifestyle brands including Super Sunday, High Cultured, Abstrax, and Choii added flavor with their own drops, enriching the scene with fashion, creativity, and individuality. From jerseys to knitwear jackets, the merchandise zone celebrated the intersection of cars, culture, and style.

Afternoon Energy: Cars, Competitions, and Community Spirit

By midday, the event hit its stride. The rooftop became a carnival of flavors and sounds, with food vendors serving burritos, nasi goreng, char kuey teow, fried bananas, and refreshing drinks keeping visitors fueled for the day.

Special appearances by Ali Koppa, Retrohavoc, and MotorManiac’s project car set the tone for the afternoon, drawing cheers from the crowd. Entertainment soon followed with:

• B-Boy Battle, a showcase of street dance energy that had audiences clapping in rhythm.
• Limbo Car Competition, where the lowest car rolled under the limbo stick, turning a creative twist into a crowd favorite.
• Mini diecast expo, allowing collectors to expand their Hot Wheels, Tomica, and Mini GT collections.

Performances by Eemrun and Dannyraqk amplified the energy, while a heartfelt moment came when Mike the Don of MotorManiac was presented with a special edition diecast Nissan GTR featuring the event’s latest livery.

The Night Spectacle: Music Meets Machines

As evening set in, the rooftop reached full capacity. The main stage lit up with a mix of music and machine power that kept the energy at its peak.

• 53 STU Universe electrified the crowd with back-to-back performances, each member delivering powerhouse sets.

• Headliner Alyph brought a polished, unforgettable performance that added sophistication to the night.

• The 2-Step Competition thrilled spectators as cars battled to push their exhaust power to the limit, with Downshift emerging as the champion.
