Toyota Gazoo Racing Thailand (TGRT) has announced that several cars powered by synthetic e-fuels will be racing domestically this year, in a bid to promote carbon neutrality through motorsports. The models are the Toyota Yaris, Toyota Yaris Ativ (Vios for Malaysia), and the Toyota Corolla Altis – all of which will run on synthetic fuel.

After March's Season 4 opener, the Toyota Gazoo Racing Vios Challenge once again returned to Sepang International Circuit over the weekend (23- to 25-October 2021). Just like it was seven months ago, there were no shortage of unbridled, door-to-door racing. Race Classes The Vios Challenge consists of four classes of racing: Rookie Class, featuring five graduates from the Gazoo Racing Young Talent Development Program Promotional Class, fielding 10 local celebrities Sporting Class, for amateur dri

The Honda Jazz is also known as Fit in some regions, and it’s a bit of a funny story as to how the name ‘Jazz’ came about. Honda originally intended the name to be ‘Fitta’, and upon discovering that it is a slang word for vagina in Swedish, they decided to go with a different nameplate instead.

Manufacturers seem to be filling in all the niches possible in their SUV lineup. Here we have the Mazda CX-5 and the Mazda CX-30, both are technically in the C-segment SUV market, and we've lined them up for a CX-5 vs CX-30 comparison.

Back to the topic, the Mazda CX-5 and CX-30 not only sit in the same segment, they are within similar price bracket as well. So, which do you pi

As they say, raking rooflines are like London buses - you wait ages for one then suddenly two show up. Following the VW Arteon’s unveiling yesterday, we also came across the rather quiet launch of the swoopy 2020 Audi Q3 Sportback on Audi Malaysia's website. Essentially, the Sportback is the stylish brother of the current Q3. It gets a snazzy new visual package all-around and of course, had its roof lopped off for that coupe look.
