The earlier rain settles into a light drizzle, the air is damp and fizzing with the smell of fuel. A procession of cars that took nearly one hour to get on the main straight of the Sepang F1 circuit has led to this moment. Standing almost dead centre of the pack, Mercedes-AMGs stretch as far as the eye can see up and down the road. As the marshalls start counting the number of cars, the final tally stops at a whopping 448 units. The feat, jointly organised by Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM), AMG Cl

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has dropped a new teaser, with a cryptic message that says, “Silence will soon be broken.” Now, they haven’t actually said what model it is (hence the teaser), but one of the hashtags used by the company mentioned #MercedesAMG. Thus, the teaser could be pointing towards the locally-assembled (CKD) Mercedes-AMG A35 Sedan, as evident from its signature LED daytime running lights (DRLs). The grille also looks like the one on the A35 Sedan. Further adding to that notion is the

Following today’s launch of the locally-assembled (CKD) Mercedes-Benz A-Class Sedan and GLA, Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM) will no longer promote regular A200 and A250 A-Class Hatchback, which have since been removed from the company’s price list. Only the AMG-badged A35 and A45 S remain, priced at RM 366,785 and RM 437,673 respectively, both imported (CBU) from Europe, either from the Rastatt plant in Germany or Keckskemet plant in Hungary, depending on shipment. This is not to say that MBM will

Mercedes-Benz Malaysia has skipped the “regular” Mercedes-AMG A45 and gave us the range-topping A45 S version in Edition 1 outfit. It’s yours for RM 459,888. The A45 S also comes with the Night Package which means most of the trim pieces are blacked out, such as the side mirrors, exhaust tips, bumper surrounds, etc. There’s also the aggressive Panamericana front grille with vertical slats and quad exhaust tips. And the Edition 1 package adds a larger front splitter, larger spoiler and a more pro

Engine specific output is typically measured by power-per-litre. It shows how efficient an engine is at producing power relative to its size. In the past, 100 PS-per-litre was considered the holy grail, only found in supercars or high-performance sports cars. Now, especially with turbocharging, it has become a lot more common and some even go far beyond it. So, here are 5 cars that pretty much says, “size doesn’t matter.” Ford GT – 191 PS-per-litre Recently updated with slightly more power at 66
