Set to launch in the second quarter of this year (Q2 2024), bookings for the 2024 Honda City Hatchback facelift are now open in Malaysia. Part of the changes will be a visual nip-and-tuck across the range, while the top-spec e:HEV RS hybrid gets a new honeycomb front grille, lower grille, and a sharper bumper with fog lamp garnishes; a similar theme is found at the back, with the package complemented by 16-inch wheels in Berlina Black. The update also sees Honda Sensing ADAS made standard to all

It’s hard – perhaps nigh impossible – to replace Freddie Mercury. Just ask Adam Lambert, who probably heard the sharpening of pitchforks when he was named Queen’s frontman. Parallels can be drawn with the Honda Jazz and Honda City Hatchback in Malaysia, with the latter having to deal with raving fans, monumental expectations, and sales figures to worry about on top of that. If our recent experience in Langkawi with the stubby City was anything to go by, then we think it’ll have no pressure growi

Pause the whole hullabaloo over the 2022 Perodua Myvi facelift for a bit (which launches tomorrow, by the way) and join us for this – the first Malaysian review of the 2022 Honda City Hatchback.

Do note that some of the cars mentioned are based on prediction, with varying levels of possibility. With that out of the way, let us crack on. Upcoming cars in 2021 - Toyota Camry facelift / GR 86 UMW Holdings Berhad outlined the models that are set to be introduced here in the fourth quar

With 26,240 units sold in 2020, the Toyota Yaris is Thailand’s best-selling B-segment hatchback, outselling all its rivals by a rather comfortable margin. According to headlightmag's monthly sales report, the Toyota Yaris commanded a 32.6% of Thailand’s B-segment hatchback market, ahead of rivals such as the Honda Jazz (15,568 units), Suzuki Swift (10,320 units), Mazda 2 Hatchback (7,342 units), and MG 3 (4,856 units). Although the numbers may seem impressive, keep in mind that the Yaris’ lead m

Look, we get it - cool cars are nice to look at and in most cases, just as great to drive. Except there’s one problem - they’re usually just out of reach for the average Malaysian. But a certain Japanese carmaker is adamant to bring back the cool factor with the 2021 Honda City Hatchback. So what’s good with the City Hatchback? It made its world debut in Thailand in November, effectively bringing back a name that was last seen 27 years ago in 1994. But where this name is reignited, we wave goodb
