Malaysia is witnessing a remarkable surge in battery electric vehicle (BEV) sales, with over 12,000 units since 2011. This growth is particularly notable in 2023, with BEV registrations surpassing 9,000 units. According to a report by Bernama, Investment, Trade and Industry Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz highlighted this trend at the soft launch of the Malaysia Autoshow 2024 yesterday. The Minister added that EVs are an important catalyst to Malaysia’s manufacturing exports, especi

The Perodua Aruz makes a valuable proposition for families who want an affordable 7-seater SUV. This month is also the right time if you’re interested in getting one as Perodua is offering attractive cash rebates. The Aruz has amazing practicality with its flexible 5-mode seating configuration as well as a higher ground clearance to aid in visibility. The 7-seater SUV is also affordable with the top-of-the-range AV variant priced from RM 77,900 which also comes with ASA 2.0. Perodua is giving up

If you have access to an F1 driver, why not get the person to review your new car? That’s what Honda did when they handed the keys of the all-new 2021 Honda HR-V to Honda-powered Scuderia AlphaTauri Formula 1 team driver Pierre Gasly.

Being newer than the Honda Jazz (the Yaris was launched in 2019), selection in the used market isn’t quite as wide and prices are slightly higher as well, averaging in the mid-RM 60k for a 2019 model. Which means those shopping for a brand-new Perodua Myvi will need to fork out an additional RM 10k or thereabouts for a used Toyota Yaris.

The past few rainy days have not been good for Malaysian drivers. First, we read about a R34 Nissan Skyline being totaled within an hour of its sale, then we witness this Perodua Myvi crashing into another.... Perodua Myvi. Also read: RM 165k R34 Nissan Skyline destroyed within an hour of sale Without a tinge of exaggeration, I'd like to point out that this Myvi-on-Myvi crash could've been easily avoided. In the video below you can see (at 00:36) that because of a prior crash, traffic has come t

The Kia Seltos made its global debut back in June 2019 as Kia’s entry into the ever-growing B-segment SUV market. Being a global model, the Seltos is manufactured across several Kia production facilities, including Korea, India, and China. Barring the production facility in China that caters to the domestic market, the plants in India and Korea are responsible for various export markets. At a glance, both Indian- and Korean-built Seltos models look identical, but upon closer inspection, you will
