Bermaz Malaysia only brought 100 units to be sold as CBU in Malaysia circa 2011 to 2013. Trying to get a new one was not easy as the limited models brought it was sold out

Yesterday we posted that the Hyundai i30N has overtaken the BMW M135i to become Europe’s third most popular performance hatchback, trailing behind the Mercedes-AMG A35 and Volkswagen Golf GTI. That’s an amazing feat considering that this is only Hyundai’s first attempt at this end of the market. Clearly Hyundai hired the right person to head its N Division – the former head of BMW M, Albert Biermann. In just his first attempt, Biermann has already created a better product that has won over more

In conjunction with Mazda's centennial year celebration and the Mazda 3 bagging the 2020 World Car Design of the Year award, Bermaz Auto Philippines, the official distributor of Mazda vehicles in the Philippines, has just released the 2020 Mazda 3 edition100.

The Hiroshima-based company didn’t say much, only going to as far as saying “Power comes to those who wait” on Twitter, in addition to a short 13-second video posted on YouTube. The video hints that the model will be launched on 8-July. Earlier this month, leaked dealer information revealed that Mazda is planning for a “Mazda3 HP PP Turbo”, hinting that the turbocharged mill is only destined for the sleeke
