Contrary to earlier speculations, Perodua is skipping the development of hybrids to go fully electric, and this Perodua Myvi-based emo-1 concept is a preview of what’s to come in the sub-RM 100k battery electric vehicles (BEVs) segment. Like the current generation Myvi (and Bezza), the emo-1 concept is an effort by Perodua, not its technical partner Daihatsu. It is not based on any existing project by Daihatsu, which doesn’t have any BEV model that’s not a kei minivehicle. Instead, the Perodua e

The naturally aspirated NR-VE engines have been a staple on the Perodua Myvi and Toyota Vios for years. The 1.3-litre 1NR-VE and 1.5-litre 2NR-VE are robust powerplants but despite their bulletproof reliability, they are due to be replaced especially in the new DNGA era. The Daihatsu New Generation Architecture platform is used on the all-new AC100 Toyota Vios and will underpin the next-generation Perodua Myvi. Though the fourth-generation Vios is powered by the venerable 2NR-VE, it may receive

Previously, there was the Toyota Agya TRD to give Indonesians a chance to make their Agyas look sportier, now Toyota Indonesia has the Toyota Agya GR Sport to take its place!

It'll be a double dose of the all-new 2022 Honda Civic (FE) next year, as e:HEV (hybrid) variants and the Civic Type R model are due to be launched then. Theoretically, the e:HEV powertrain should be like what's in our Honda City RS' i-MMD system. It's a dual-motor setup, with its electric motor driving the car most of the time. The petrol engine - a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre four-cylinder in the City RS - only kicks in to drive the generator to provide additional power for the traction moto

The motoring world has been raving about the 2021 Toyota GR Yaris since the car first made its debut. A rally-bred performance car hiding beneath an angsty exterior - what's not to like? "Not angry enough! Needs more craziness!", is probably what Kei Miura, who helms TRA-Kyoto, said. Luckily for us, he thought about this some time ago, promptly hit the drawing board and brandished the power tools to create this - the Rocket Bunny GR Yaris. Since modifying Nissan Silvias, Toyota 86s and Subaru BR

The Perodua Myvi driver who drove against traffic from the Penang bridge toll plaza towards the North-South Expressway has turned himself in to the Bukit Mertajam traffic police station. Police has since detained the man. According to the Seberang Perai Tengah district police, the 35-year-old driver from Kepalas Batas claimed that he thought it was a two-way lane. In the Friday morning incident, the driver was believed to have made a U-Turn at the Penang Bridge toll to head back towards the Nort
