Sime Darby Auto Connexion-Ford (SDAC-Ford) announced that 2023 saw a new sales record for Ford vehicles in Malaysia. 8,858 units of the Ford Ranger and Ford Everest were sold across the country last year.

Earlier reports suggest that the all-new fourth-gen 2021 Nissan X-Trail will be paired to an 8-speed automatic. However, we know that this is not true as more evidence points to the transmission being a CVT with 8 virtual ratios. According to the US Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) FuelEconomy.gov website, the X-Trail’s North American twin, the Nissan Rogue could gain the turbocharged 3-cylinder 1.5-litre engine (204 PS/300 Nm). This engine might debut in the Chinese X-Trail at the upcomi

The Malaysian Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (KPDNHEP) recently showed their support to Perodua by purchasing 55 units of the Perodua Aruz AV. This marks the Aruz’s first ever fleet deal since its launch in January 2019. The momentous occasion was marked with a small ceremony of handing a mock key over from the Domestic Trade Secretary-General Datuk Muez Abdul Aziz to the Director of Enforcement Dato’ Haji Iskandar Halim Haji Sulaiman. Perodua is confident that the Aruz will pla
