Said model was first spotted on Malaysian soil back in May, just weeks before MCO 3.0 was enforced. This time around, a reader sent in photos of a heavily taped-up development mule at the Genting Sempah car park to our friends over at Careta – the very same car park the Proton Preve was spotted many moons ago. Curiously, this particular development mule wears a very different camou

Despite only being on sale for about a year plus, Geely will be giving its XXXL-sized SUV a nip-and-tuck soon, as photos depicting the revised Haoyue have surfaced from China.
