In December 2023, Neta announced the completion of its 20,000 units per year capacity plant in Thailand. The company has since followed up on its progress, confirming that the first batch of Thailand-assembled (CKD) right-hand drive cars – a first outside of China – will reach customers by April 2024. The plant is in the outskirts of Bangkok, built in partnership with Neta’s local partner Bangchan General Assembly. Currently, the plant only makes one model, the Neta V-II, a facelift version of t

Much like all other carmakers, Perodua is a happy camper following the recent announcement by the Ministry of Finance (MoF) allowing customers to enjoy the sales tax exemption as long as their vehicles are booked up to 30 June 2022, seeing that they’ve got significant orders and have already registered 106,179 vehicles between January and May this year, a 10 percent increase than the 96,281 units during the same period last year. Unsurprisingly, the Myvi continues its reign as the king of the ro

Say you wanted to get the Toyota GR Yaris on a discount but alas, it's nearly out of stock. Fret not, at least JW Bodykits Accessories is here to pepper some GR-ness into Malaysia's everyday hero, the Perodua Myvi. Just one photo was enough to set our Facebook page's comments section ablaze, and now we've got photos of the front bumper on an actual Myvi. Honestly - it does look quite good! The aggressive grille (complete with 'Functional Matrix' design), slats, and moulded canards complement the

Like the Perodua Alza, the Toyota Avanza is popular (in Indonesia) but ageing. However, development on the next-gen Avanza is ongoing, based on this photo and it is getting a front-wheel drive (FWD) layout! It was uploaded by a Facebook user named Rizal ZeroTwo and showed what appeared to be the next-gen Avanza undergoing testing in Indonesia. This photo pretty much confirms our suspicion that the next-gen Avanza will be FWD as opposed to the outgoing generation's rear-wheel drive set-up. As you

The Perodua Axia has the Axia Style, and it’s selling rather well. So it’s only natural to expect Proton to come up with a quasi-SUV, jacked up version of the Proton Iriz. Recall that back in 2014, Proton introduced the Proton Iriz Active Concept. Featuring SUV-style claddings and roof rails, plus a two-tone paint job, the jacked up Iriz rides 30 mm higher. There were reports that Proton will put the Iriz Active into production but things went quiet after that. For obvious reasons – Proton was a

Since its launch 15 years ago, the Perodua Myvi has been holding the top spot as Malaysian’s favourite hatchback. It took Proton a few tries to come up with a competitive product before they came to the Iriz. It’s been 6 years since the 2 cars have been in close combat, now in their latest updates, which car should you pick? Here's a quick comparison between the top spec of each car! When the Iriz was first introduced, enthusiasts were shocked at the high price tag of RM 62,888 for the top spec
