The third Geely-rebadged Proton model is yet another SUV but for some, the 2023 Proton X90 is quite the highly-anticipated model just like the Proton X70 and Proton X50 from before. Really, anything from the Malaysian Tiger/Thundercat can count as something tinged with local pride but this 3-row SUV is something Malaysians have been looking forward to despite not being quite an original product. There are a few differences between the Proton X90 and its Chinese donor, the Geely Haoyue/Okavango b

Volkswagen’s R-Line brothers, the Passat R-Line and Tiguan Allspace R-Line, are currently hogging most of the attention. The Tiguan Allspace R-Line has a one and a half month waiting period, and it’s easy to see why – it has the utility of 7 seats, with the firepower of a GTI under the bonnet. Both the Passat R-Line and Tiguan Allspace R-Line crosses the RM 200k psychological barrier. The former is priced at RM 203,411, the latter RM 208,553. At this price point, it’s within firing range of the
