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

Even though James Bond is always associated with Aston Martins, MI6’s finest agent has been driving all kinds of cars including BMWs, Lotuses, a Ford Mustang, and even a Toyota. But what if agent Bond followed Wakanda’s loving king in getting a Lexus? This design is one of the entries challenged by UK’s Autocar on the postgraduate students of Coventry University’s renowned automotive and transport design course. The challenge is to envision what a Bond car might look like in 10 years’ time. Call

Sporty-looking hatchbacks by Proton include the Proton Satria, Proton Satria Neo, and the Proton Suprima S. While there might be no plans for a successor to the Proton Suprima S soon, photo chopper Theophilus Chin has decided to use the Proton X50’s front end to imagine one.

2020 is quite a challenging year but as the saying goes, the show must go on. And went on it did as Malaysia saw around 80 models launched this year. Despite movement restrictions for almost the whole year, that is still an impressive number all things considered. But while we have a list featuring 15 of the most important cars of the year, this time, we’re going to focus on most expensive cars that were launched in 2020. We’ll focus on 10 and some might have been sold out by the time you finish

In the spirit of Kaizen, or continous improvement, Lexus has just given its flagship LC Coupe an update. Changes are relatively minor and the exterior is largely untouched. One of the changes highlighted is the reduced unsprung weight by around 10 kg. This is achieved through the use of aluminium lower arms, light anti-roll bars, and new material for the coil springs. The 21-inch forged alloy wheels are also lighter than before. On top of making the suspension parts lighter, it has also been cal

Grand tourer or GT is a phrase to describe cars made for high speed cruising, combining performance and luxury. Traditionally, most GT cars are front-engined and are heavier, which blunts agility and nimbleness. This is where the 2019 McLaren GT pulls an advantage over traditional GT cars. McLaren’s take on a GT car is to combine luxury, practicality and agility. Priced at RM 908,000 (without tax and options), the McLaren GT is motivated by a 4.0-litre twin turbocharged V8 that makes 620 PS and
