There are only two 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged cars to choose from in Malaysia right now – The Perodua Ativa and the Nissan Almera. Unfortunately, the 1.0-litre turbo engine for the Honda City never made it here. Sharing an almost similar engine and both utilising CVT, the Ativa and Almera have pretty much the same powertrain. However, they aren’t exactly equal – one rides better than the other, uses less fuel, and doesn’t vibrate as much. But which one is the better of the two? Well, to f

Shortly after prices for the 2021 Toyota Vios facelift were announced, we heard you ask: 'What's new? What's still the same?" These questions are what we'll be answering in this article. Exterior - Hey there, good lookin' Like its recently-facelifted 2021 Toyota Yaris stablemate, the redesign makes the Vios look more mature. Toyota has done away with the catfish-esque design of the pre-facelift model, this time employing sharper LED head lamps with integrated daytime running lights (DRLs) to acc

The previous-generation Nissan Almera definitely didn’t win in the looks or performance department but it was one of the cheapest non-national B-segment sedans in the market. With the all-new 2020 Nissan Almera, it appears that it traded its looks for a more premium price. In fact, it’s more expensive than the all-new Honda City aside from the City RS which has yet to announce its price. Does this mean that the City is a better buy than the Almera?

A common excuse for buying an SUV would be the added safety in the event of a crash. SUVs are bigger and thus we instinctively associate them with strength. And there is some truth to that. In the event of a collision of two cars, it is usually much better to be in the bigger car. But SUVs are also associated with higher centres of gravity and they generally rollover much easier. So, if safety is your main concern, should you get an SUV or a sedan? It depends. To be fair, we’ll be looking at an
