A 24-year-old woman’s quick response to a man sexually harassing her was to record a video as evidence. The man then proceeded to violently break her car window in an attempt to remove said evidence.

The 2019 Proton Saga facelift is our national carmaker's most important model launch after the much-hyped Proton X70. It is the most affordable Proton model sold at a price point that most hardworking Malaysians can afford. With the facelift, Proton has elevated its entry-level car to be a desirable product. Proton engineers did not only set out to make the Proton Saga look good but also focused on making it feel good. The latter although quite abstract, can be clearly felt at every important to

Have you ever come across kids jumping at the backseat of a car, while you’re stopped at a red light? This is one of my biggest driving pet peeves, people not wearing seatbelts whilst travelling in their cars. We have seen countless times, crashes on the road that have resulted in people getting flung out of their cars. Why? Plain and simple, they weren’t wearing their seatbelts. How can something so intrinsically simple to do become such a widely-ignored habit? Sadly, it’s down to both ignoranc

Okay, readers, this has been rattling around my head for the past week. As Malaysians, it is our sworn duty to protect and support all things Malaysian. Our national flower is the hibiscus, the national animal – the Malayan Tiger, and our breakfast of champions – nasi lemak with a side of fried eggs and sambal ikan bilis. But when it comes to cars, it is a bit of a difficult choice with which to award as the Malaysian people’s car? Is it the Perodua Kancil, the city roundabout that gave many Mal

这个月的早些时候,Hyundai在新加坡Jurong的电动车工厂开始动工,工厂的年产量达30,000辆,总投资RM 12.2亿。2022年建成后,Hyundai汽车全球创新中心(HMGICs)将成为Hyundai汽车集团(包括Kia在内)在东盟地区内的电动车研发中心。 每年在这里生产的30,000辆电动车中,大约会有5,000到6,000辆在新加坡销售,剩下的则都会出口。 这个决定有些出人意料,因为高工资成本的新加坡并不是制造业的首选之地,新加坡上一次制造汽车已经是1980年的事情了。这里没有任何汽车制造的行业基础,也没有任何已经成型的供应基地和能够管理汽车工厂的人才。 新加坡的这座工厂是Hyundai计划在东盟地区建立的两座工厂之一,Hyundai也正在计划投入RM 64亿,在印度尼西亚建立一座年产量达250,000辆的工厂,这个计划将于明年启动。 更出人意料的是,Hyundai汽车拥有Inokom在Kulim的工厂15%的股份,但这家韩国汽车制造商却决定忽略马来西亚,选择了新加坡和印度尼西亚,这似乎有些冷落大马了。 Hyundai还没宣布会在新加坡生产哪个车型,不过他们已经表示,I

Malaysia is known for having one of the world’s highest taxes on cars. Sales of new cars and spare parts for motor vehicles are the single largest contributor in import and excise duties collection, eclipsing tobacco and alcohol products. How much taxes do car sales contribute to the Malaysian government? The government doesn’t provide a breakdown of its tax collection by industry, but it is safe to estimate that the automotive sector contributes well over RM 10 billion in taxes every year. So i

As more Malaysians turn to the e-hailing industry as a source of supplementary income, the need for efficient, comfortable and reliable cars to perform such duties has increased.

As much as we like to have many, many cars in our lifetime, sometimes dreams remain just that - dreams. Case in point is the Toyota GR Yaris - from RM 286k, it's a bit out of reach for most of us. But a Perodua Myvi though? It's something most Malaysians can afford, with the most expensive variant topping out at RM 52k. Unless several thousand Ringgit is poured into one, the Myvi isn't the closest thing to what one terms as a road-going rally car. But JW Bodykit Accessories will at least make Ma
