Toyota returns to the 2023 Sepang 1000 KM Endurance Race (S1K) seeking to not only defend the overall title it won last year but aiming to complete a hat trick of podium finishes since it joined the annual prestigious event in 2021. Toyota Gazoo Racing Malaysia will field its sole entry and S1K defending champions Tengku Djan Ley Tengku Mahaleel and Naquib Azlan behind the wheel of the 2022 winning Toyota Vios in the MTC Class.

An image was recently circulating on social media, in which an unnamed Toyota dealer advertises a spare tyre package to 2023 Toyota Vios (AC100) owners. Our checks reveal that the offer is legitimate; however only certain dealers are extending that offer based on their own initiative. The price for the full-size spare (which includes the rim) are as follows: RM 1,285.45 (16-inch) RM 1,294.45 (17-inch) Though balancing is in the package, note that the retaining screw for the spare is not availabl

When one buys a Toyota Corolla Altis, they know exactly what they getting: A relatively comfortable car, unburstable mechanicals, and a smooth ownership experience. Trouble is, in recent times, the buying audience might want something more than that (as demonstrated by the FC-generation Honda Civic). That doesn't make the Corolla Altis a bad car to buy at all. In fact, the E170-generation sits at very attractive price point in the used car market now (from RM 53k to RM 99k). With that in mind, i

There are many ways to coax young'uns into buying cars, one of which - or so Toyota's Thailand operations think - is by dousing a Toyota Yaris Ativ (Vios for Malaysians) in pink and calling it the 'Play' variant, which is exactly what we have here today.
