The earlier rain settles into a light drizzle, the air is damp and fizzing with the smell of fuel. A procession of cars that took nearly one hour to get on the main straight of the Sepang F1 circuit has led to this moment. Standing almost dead centre of the pack, Mercedes-AMGs stretch as far as the eye can see up and down the road. As the marshalls start counting the number of cars, the final tally stops at a whopping 448 units. The feat, jointly organised by Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM), AMG Cl

Part of the appeal of driving around in an AMG-fettled vehicle is that people can’t quite tell what’s going on. They’re cars that can appreciate languid drives yet still hold their own on the track – and that’s a privilege that’s gotten easier to own thanks to the introduction of the locally-assembled (CKD) 2022 Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan. Being Pekan-assembled means your pathway to AMG ownership is now RM 11k cheaper, as it’s now priced from RM 325,090 (on-the-road without insurance and SST). And i

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has dropped a new teaser, with a cryptic message that says, “Silence will soon be broken.” Now, they haven’t actually said what model it is (hence the teaser), but one of the hashtags used by the company mentioned #MercedesAMG. Thus, the teaser could be pointing towards the locally-assembled (CKD) Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan, as evident from its signature LED daytime running lights (DRLs). The grille also looks like the one on the A35 Sedan. Further adding to that notion is the
