In this upwardly mobile society, having a means of transportation is a necessity and in places where public transport is either absent or inefficient, having your own car is a must. While some might see them as a luxury, there are those who needed them to supplement their income or to commute. That said, for many who are budget-conscious, the threshold of owning a brand-new car shouldn’t breach the six-figure mark. While there are plenty of cars likely to be launched here in Malaysia in 2023, we

The 2023 D74A Perodua Axia is characterised by a spec-sheet that's never-before-seen in its category in Malaysia. Never mind its powertrain, the real headliner is the rich safety features that's crammed into its tiny body. 6 airbags, and Perodua Smart Drive Assist (PSDA) ADAS are what's fitted to the range-topping 1.0 AV model, in addition to the standard VSC (vehicle stability control) that's on every variant. Impressive as it is that these are now available on an Axia, it also spells a future

If you get misty-eyed over the last tapir, then head on over to Lexus to catch a glimpse of the Lexus LC Convertible, as it might be the last of its kind.

If you like big posh cats, then the news from around the world isn’t very encouraging. Sales of the BMW 8 Series is reportedly stalling in the United States, with reports from Europe claiming that BMW will dis

We’ve seen multiple renderings of the upcoming 2021 Toyota Innova facelift, with one even reimagined with the Toyota Corolla Altis’ face! But now, we don’t have to guess how the car will look anymore, as images of the facelift have been leaked online and we have to say that the update has a decidedly Toyota Hilux front silhouette. The facelift was leaked via a 3D model website, it was even rendered into 3D blueprints. From what we can see, cosmetic changes include a new front grille that looks v

The oddly named Mazda CX-30 slots between the B-segment CX-3 and the C-segment CX-5. Why is called the CX-30 instead of a more logical CX-4 then? That's because the CX-4 already exists as a totally unrelated China-only model (based on the previous generation CX-5). This 2020 Mazda CX-30 that you see here is Mazda's latest global product. It's a C-segment SUV, similar to the CX-5 but this one sits closer to the smaller Toyota C-HR than the larger CX-5. Just as its little brother the CX-3 is based

ESC stands for Electronic Stability Control. It's computer-controlled feature that prevents the car from skidding. ESC is proven to be the most successful active safety device since it’s introduction, with research data showing a 50 percent of road accidents on cars with ESC. Initially only available in high-end cars, ESC is now available in even the cheapest Perodua, with the Bezza being the first. But the Bezza is not the only affordable car in our market with ESC. Here are 5 of the most affor
