The current generation VW Golf GTI Mk8 is due for a mid-model lifecycle update. The Mk8 Golf GTI made its global debut in February 2020. Nearly four years later, a nip-and-tuck is necessary to keep the German hot hatch fresh. Ahead of today's opening of the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, USA, VW hosted a preview of the new 2024 Golf GTI, colloquially referred to as the Mk 8.5 generation model. Wrapped in camouflage material, the new Mk 8.5 Golf GTI features a new front bumper whil

Peugeot has announced that the next-generation Peugeot 3008 and Peugeot 5008 will be revealed in the second half of 2023.

The STLA Medium is one of the four future Stellantis Group "BEV-by-design" platforms, but it

There’s no such thing as a perfect car for everyone as the needs and preferences of each differ from one another. However, I have a theory that if you plot a Venn diagram of the common needs of most Malaysian car buyers, one of the cars sitting at the intersection is the 2022 Honda Civic.

Kah Motor Company Sdn. Bhd. - Honda's authorised distributor in Singapore - has opened registration of interest for the all-new 2022 Honda Civic (FE-series) there. Beyond this single photo, further information about the Singapore-spec model has not yet been shared. We have reached out for comment and shall update this story once we hear from them. Note that Singapore imports the 10th-gen Civic (FC) from Thailand. With this arrangement unchanged, this teaser implies that production of the new Civ

If the C-segment class of compact cars is indeed shrinking, Honda doesn’t seem to be aware of it. Sales of the Civic in USA – still Honda Motor’s biggest car market – continue to grow strongly even as archrival Toyota has just released an all-new Toyota Corolla. Despite being an aging model, the Honda Civic appears to be unaffected by the new generation Corolla, with sales growing by 26 percent month-on-month in August, totaling 34,808 units.
