Plug-in hybrid (PHEV) power is coming to the all-new Mitsubishi Triton – but it won't be diesel, confirms a senior Mitsubishi Motors engineer to media outlet Carsales Australia. Speaking at the ongoing Japan Mobility Show 2023 (JMS), Kaoru Sawase says that "Mitsubishi Motors are researching and developing such a [PHEV] system, but at this moment launching time is not decided yet,” referring to the upcoming powertrain and its launch timing.

It is believed that there is a keen interest among Malaysians when it comes to electric vehicles (EVs). However, many are still understandably hesitant about relying on EVs as their primary mode of transportation. With EVs, you’d have to tweak your habits from those associated with combustion engine cars in order to align with the EV lifestyle. Generally, you’d be treating the EV just like your smartphone (if you want to prolong the battery life, that is) – avoid extreme ends of State of Charge

No, you’re not reading the clickbait-worthy title wrong because the all-new 2022 Perodua Alza isn’t just the best model to bear a Perodua badge to date.

Ahead of its imminent launch (you can register your interest as well), we managed to get our hands on a Malaysian-spec leaflet for the 2021 Toyota Harrier. As we previously feared, yes it will no longer be powered by the 8AR-FTS turbocharged 2.0-litre. Will we miss it? Time will tell. In its place is Toyota's Dynamic Force 2.0-litre naturally aspirated 4 pot (173 PS, 203 Nm) which is paired to a Direct Shift CVT transmission. Basically, this powertrain combo is identical to the one pulling duty

Mazda has just dropped a teaser of the new-generation Mazda BT-50 pick-up truck, which will be making its debut on 17th June. The all-new third-generation Mazda BT-50 will be based on the recently-introduced third-generation Isuzu D-Max, a departure from the Ford Ranger-based second-generation model. As such, the new-generation Mazda BT-50 will be underpinned by the Dynamic Drive Platform, just like the Isuzu D-Max. Apart from being 23% stiffer than the outgoing model, the new platform also feat
