  • Review: 2023 Volvo XC90 T8 - 7 years on, still showing competitors how luxury is done

    As the saying goes, if something ain't broke don't fix it - but does that apply to the 2023 Volvo XC90, a car that has been around for more than seven years? At the outset, the XC90 was the first of an entirely new generation of Volvos – it introduced Volvo’s Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) platform an entirely new range of hybrid powertrains and a timeless Scandinavian design language that has inspired every Volvo model that came after it.

  • 20 photos to decide if you prefer the Volvo EX90 over the BMW iX

    Volvo has unveiled its flagship SUV, Volvo EX90. It’s a fully-electric (EV) 7-seater SUV and the company’s first purpose-built EV from the ground up.

    Hybrid cars are not new to Malaysians, seeing that they have been available in Malaysia for roughly 15 years with the introduction of the FD-generation Honda Civic Hybrid.
