Indonesia is set to launch the Toyota Raize and Daihatsu Rocky twins on 30-April. According to our sister-site AutoFun, the Indonesian twins of our Malaysian Perodua Ativa will be offered with two engine options. The first is the familiar 1KR-VET 1.0-litre turbocharged 3-cylinder that is used by our Perodua Ativa, and a new 1.2-litre naturally aspirated engine that will make its debut in Indonesia. The new 1.2-litre engine is also a 3-cylinder, and is said to make 88 PS and 112 Nm, paired to eit

We've heard all about the praise for the 2020 Proton X50, it is more affordable than its bigger Proton X70 sibling and offers the benefits of a new generation 3-cylinder 1.5-litre turbocharged TGDi and MPi engines.

The Proton X50 is definitely one of the most exciting cars of 2020. At least in Malaysia. The variants have been revealed, the tech features look exciting, the performance has been impressive, and yet the prices are yet to be announced. Still, that doesn’t faze people from booking the X50 but don’t be deceived by the unofficial price figures. This just shows how hyped the little brother to the X70 really is. The X50 is locally-assembled at Proton’s Tanjung Malim plant and Proton has released a s

If you’ve been following us since last year, you would know we’ve test driven the Proton X50’s donor car the B-segment Geely Binyue in China, driving it on a variety of local roads. We love the interior and its straight-line performance, but not its handling and ride comfort. In fact, we pointed out that the Binyue’s ride and handling are the two most disappointing aspects of the car. The ride was terrible as the dampers were unnecessarily stiff and the engine’s 177 PS output is not matched by a

Facebook: Kamal Afiq bin Kamal Bahrin This is a 2015 Volkswagen Polo 1.6MPI Hatchback that my wife bought new in 2015. It is the first car that she bought to replace her ageing family owned 2009 Perodua Viva 1.0 EZi. Upon returning from overseas and securing a job that required her to travel from Johor to Kerteh almost on a weekly basis, we wanted a ca
