The 5th-generation Toyota Prius debuted in late 2022 featuring superb looks, new powertrains, and an updated TNGA platform that vastly improved handling - creating the most driver-focussed Prius ever, in contrast to the efficient runabouts all its predecessors were. That said, you wouldn't peg it to do a fast lap around a racing circuit, would you? That didn’t stop Top Gear UK from trying though, and by golly-gosh, did it look spectacular. In a recent review, they set out on the longest Uber rid

So, looks like the 2023 Toyota Prius (XW60) seen at the Bangkok International Motor Show earlier this year was a writing on the wall, eh? At least that's what media outlet Autolife Thailand reports, as their recent scoop says that the vaunted model will be heading to their market soon. The site says that the fifth-generation hybrid stalwart will be launched in Thailand come 2024, and it is said to be locally-assembled (CKD) to boot. Specs and all will have to wait till later, though the publicat

Super long name, but this the closest thing the world has to a Toyota GR Prius. Technicalities be damned, all we know is we want one.

Not content with just being a standard but comfortable hybrid hatchback, the all-new second-generation Toyota Aqua, which is the JDM name for the Prius C that was once sold in Malaysia, has been given the Gazoo Racing (GR) treatment. Just launched in Japan, the second-gen Aqua GR Sport (GR-S) balances the comfort of a TNGA-based hybrid car with the famed performance elements of Toyota Gazoo Racing (TGR). Hence, the Aqua GR-S is the sixth GR-S model currently sold in Japan following the Yaris Cro

Japan has one of the highest fuel prices in the world. Despite it being home to many of the world’s biggest automotive names, Japan actively discourages the use of personal cars, especially in the city. To promote public transport – as any sustainably developed country should – Japan imposes two types of taxes on petrol – consumption tax (similar to GST) and petrol tax. Fuel prices in Japan now average around RM 5.40 per litre for regular petrol (RON 89 to RON 95), and RM 5.75 per litre for high

Thinking outside the box is a trait usually appreciated, but there are times where staying within predefined confines are better – and parking is one, as the driver of this Toyota Prius c shows. In a truly bizzare incident, dashcam footage sees the driver park and nonchalantly leave his car at junction exit. And it wasn't all about 'act blur live longer' too; he still had the gall to direct the following car around his dainty hatchback. We can only imagine the face of the driver in the car behin
