MARii Design Centre
Welcome to MARii Design Centre – Where Design Drives Innovation! Leading the way in automotive innovation, with design at the very heart of our identity.
We’re entering a new era where design meets technology to bring you the Next Generation of vehicles: Autonomous Connected Electrified Shared (ACES). Step inside the inspiring walls of MARii’s new Design Centre, and you’ll find a perfect blend of luxury, meticulous attention to detail, and exceptional craftsmanship that defines us.
One significant milestone in this transformation is the amalgamation of MARii and PERODUA’s design teams within the walls of the state-of-the-art MARii Design Centre, housing the all-new MARii-PERODUA design studio.
At the core of this creative powerhouse are distinct teams specializing
in diverse facets of automotive design:
EXTERIOR DESIGN
The visionary external designers are the architects behind the exterior concepts of our vehicles. Their role encompasses the entire spectrum of exterior design, from conceiving innovative ideas to approving A Surfaces for production tooling. Their creative process utilizes a range of tools, including sketches, CAD drawings, and physical models. Each brand has its own dedicated exterior design team.
INTERIOR DESIGN
Interior designers are the custodians of the interior ambiance, steering the development of visible interior components until they evolve into the final production parts. Much like their exterior counterparts, they employ an array of creative tools, such as sketches, CAD drawings, and physical models. Each brand has its distinct interior design team.
COLOUR AND MATERIALS
The color and materials designers wield their expertise to curate the aesthetics and tactile sensations of our vehicles. Their domain extends to specifying exterior paint palettes, seat trims, and all materials and finishes that grace both the exterior and interior of the vehicles. As with other design segments, the color and materials designers are brand specific.

CLAY MODELLING
A realm of boundless creativity, the Clay Modelling department breathes life into digital concepts and 2D ideation, sculpting physical solutions. The resulting clay models stand as high-quality representations utilized in design gateways, Board Reviews, and other pivotal design evaluations.

CAS – DIGITAL DESIGN
In the digital domain, the Computer-Aided Styling (CAS) – Digital Design team takes center stage. Here, they craft 3D digital solutions from 2D ideas, operating within the virtual sphere. These digital concepts provide support for virtual and physical properties and are pivotal in presentation materials for design gateways, Board Reviews, and other critical design assessments across the organization.
CAD – ENGINEERING DESIGN
Beyond the realms of artistic expression, the CAD Engineering Design division serves as the backbone for housing 50 units of CATIA V5 HD2 workstations, each equipped with powerful computational capabilities. This advanced infrastructure marks a pivotal step forward in the quest to train and empower automotive suppliers while accelerating the pace of engineering design work.
The MARii Design Centre is a testament to the fusion of innovation, luxury, and technology, where automotive
design reigns supreme, creating vehicles that captivate the eye and redefine the driving experience.
