Following the launch of the 2022 Perodua Alza, one would of course expect Proton to make a response, however minor, to defend the ageing Proton Exora, which was last updated in 2019. Apart from the Alza, Toyota too is expected to launch the all-new Toyota Veloz very soon, followed by the all-new Honda BR-V early next year. The Proton Exora was first launched in 2009, and this is its 13th year on the market. You would expect that Geely would have at least have a replacement model planned but unfo

The Proton Iriz is a relic compared to most of its rivals in the B-segment. Launched in 2014 as Proton’s true attempt at its global car project after the shortcomings of the Proton Preve, the Iriz was almost universally praised by the motoring media initially. Things were going great for Proton and the Iriz was seen as a major turning point for the company in producing a well-packaged hatchback.

Being a man that supposedly have more knowledge of cars, I thought she just complained because she just wants a new car. So we swap cars. I took her car and she took mi

Behold the new 2020 Toyota Yaris facelift! Like the newly-introduced Toyota Yaris Ativ sedan, aka the Toyota Vios in Malaysia, Toyota Motor Thailand has upgraded the new Toyota Yaris with Toyota Safety Sense, updated exterior stylings and a sportier interior as well as Apple CarPlay connectivity. Cosmetically, the new Toyota Yaris is sharper than the outgoing generation with narrower squinty automatic LED headlamps paired with stylish LED DRLs. Toyota has also updated the Yaris’ grille with a bl

The Honda BR-V is an entry-level, three-row seat, seven-seater vehicle. With a ground clearance of 201 mm, it rides 3 mm higher than even a Honda CR-V (even when fitted with all-wheel drive). At the same time, it’s only has front-wheel drive, with an elongated rear half that looks more like an MPV than an SUV. So what is the Honda BR-V? Is it an MPV or an SUV? The simple answer is that it’s an SUV. Honda Malaysia’s own marketing materials describe it as a crossover, which is just another way of
