Chevrolet and Saab’s presence in Malaysia might be gone with the latter very unlikely to make a return but the American bowtie has just announced a recall campaign to replace the Takata driver airbag inflators. 3,725 units are affected in the recall and it affects 5 models which are: Chevrolet Cruze (2010-15 models) Chevrolet Orlando (2013-15 models) Chevrolet Sonic (2013-14 models) Chevrolet Trax (2017 models) Saab 9-3 (2007 models) Interestingly, the Trax was never sold in Malaysia though a fe

The BYD M6 was launched in Indonesia – Southeast Asia’s largest car market – in July this year. Prices range from IDR 379 million to IDR 429 million, positioning it between the Toyota Veloz (which tops out at IDR 340.4 million) and the Toyota Innova Zenix (which starts from IDR 430.4 million). As a three-row seat MPV, the BYD M6 is the kind of car Indonesians love, and the market has responded positively to its introduction. For two consecutive months since October 2024, the BYD M6 has ranked am

With the conclusion of the 2024 Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (KLIMS) yesterday, here's a quick recap of what went on at one of the biggest stands that week - the one by UMW Toyota Motor. Multi-pathway approach to mobility With no less than 10 cars and a few other two-wheeled exhibits – Toyota's stand highlighted the company's multi-pathway approach to tackling the world's questions on the evolution of mobility. Rather uniquely however is that their stand showcased not just an optimis

UMW Toyota Motor ended November 2024 with ‘close to’ 8,400 units of Toyota and Lexus vehicles sold, said the company. It also added that year-to-date sales stood at ‘approximately’ 89,500 units. The company didn’t disclose its figures for October (JPJ registration figures are skewed by grey imports) but data compiled by RHB Investment puts it at 8,989 units, which also means that November sales are down by 6.6%. Year-to-date, sales are down 8.4%, from 97,705 units recorded in the same 11-month p

For all the news out there on China's seemingly never-ending growth of vehicle manufacturers, there's just about as many that crumble under pressure. Newest to that list is Ji Yue, a Geely-Baidu collaboration that's reportedly facing financial trouble. Highlighting the Chinese market's intense price wars and competition among car manufacturers, Reuters reports that Ji Yue is seeking to raise new funds and carry out operational adjustments to cope with this challenge. Per Sina Weibo, the battery-

The 12-day-long Thailand International Motor Expo – the largest annual car sales event in Southeast Asia – is the automotive equivalent of an Asian football cup. All major brands operating in the region see the event as a final all-or-nothing push to clear their inventory and hit annual sales targets before the year ends. Last year’s event was a rude awakening for many Japanese brands. BYD, Aion, MG, Deepal, and GWM leapfrogged Nissan, Isuzu, Mazda, and Mitsubishi. Honda struggled to stay ahead

Honda Malaysia has officially opened bookings for the 2025 Honda Civic facelift, scheduled to launch in January 2025. It will come with an updated exterior (pretty much as we've seen in Thailand), new 18-inch matte grey alloy wheels, and keeps its two RS variants: the e:HEV RS facelift and RS petrol. Under the hood, the e:HEV RS is powered by a state-of-the-art 2.0L e:HEV hybrid powertrain, delivering 184PS and 315 Nm of torque. The petrol RS variant features a 1.5L VTEC Turbocharged engine, off

The past week (or months) hasn’t been kind to Neta. In China, Neta is facing severe financial difficulties and has reportedly stopped production at its Yichun and Nanning plants. It received some reprieve when the Chinese state-owned Nanning Industrial Investment Group stepped in to provide financial support. Just as Neta found life support, it was torpedo-ed by ASEAN NCAP’s test results for the Neta V, which earned tragically comedic ‘Zero Star’ rating. As a Global NCAP-affiliated organization

Mercedes-AMG’s 45 series has always been about taking something everyday – be it a hatchback, sedan, or in this case, a crossover – and turning it into something extraordinary. The facelifted Mercedes-AMG GLA 45 S is no different. It packs the same stonking performance and sophisticated dynamics we’ve come to expect from Affalterbach, but wrapped in a taller, more practical SUV body.
