Yesterday, UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT) introduced the 2024 Toyota Yaris G Limited in Malaysia, a (600 unit) limited-run variant of its popular B-Segment hatchback, priced at RM 99,600. For the price premium, the 2024 Yaris G Limited adds an aero kit and aesthetic updates, handling upgrades (body braces and stiffer shocks), and notably a cold air intake system that boosts power. The latter of which, is quite uncommon. What does a cold air intake do? Well to understand, let’s get back to basics. Any p

Today is the 10th anniversary of one of Proton’s most unfulfilled models of its 40 years of existence, the Proton Suprima S. Alongside the Proton Preve, both were billed as P1’s “global” models with some design input from Italian design house Italdesign Giugiaro but underdelivered with the Suprima S only sold for 6 years. But there were plenty of high hopes when the Suprima S was unveiled on 17-August 2013 at the MATRADE Exhibition and Convention Centre (MECC). Spyshots of the hatchback which wa

Honda Malaysia has delivered over 39,000 cars in the first half of 2022, up 60 percent when compared to the same six-month period in 2021.

Perhaps more akin to high-speed chases often seen in the US, a video, reportedly shared by Johor’s Team Task Force (MPV) patrol unit involved in a high-speed pursuit in their FC Honda Civic and the suspect’s Honda Jazz. According to video, the approximately 35-minute police chase took place on the 20-June 2021 when the patrol unit flagged down a GK Honda Jazz in Kampung Melayu Majidee. However, before the police officers could exit their vehicle, the suspects took off, starting an adrenaline-fil

Honda Thailand has shown various models at this year's Bangkok International Motor Show. Seen alongside the 2020 Honda City Turbo RS is this 2020 Honda Jazz RS. The Jazz RS is powered by a 1.5-litre four-pot that makes 117 PS and 146 Nm of torque. Power is delivered through a CVT to its front wheels. It's 3 PS lesser than the engine we get (120 PS) due to it being tuned to run on E85 gasohol fuel and therefore complying to Thailand's CO2 rules. Anyway, let's take a closer look and see what's dif

In Japan, the Honda Jazz is sold as the Honda Fit. With SUVs and their smaller imitators of crossovers becoming a fast growing segment, Honda saw it fit to dress up their Fit with crossover-esque styling, and gave it a fitting name, the Honda Fit Crosstar. To recap, the all-new fourth generation Honda Jazz/Fit has just made its world premiere at the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show. The model will go on sale in February 2020 so details on powertrain and body dimensions are still not available, but we know
