The Proton X50 was one of the most highly anticipated cars in Malaysia of 2020 with overwhelming demand that led to long waiting periods. Now that supply issues have gotten better, the X50 is still one of Malaysia’s most in-demand SUVs of its class. 3 years after its launch, nothing is stopping the X50’s popularity with Proton announcing that 100,210 units have been sold nationwide. 2,021 units of the X50 were sold in October 2023 which cumulatively makes it the most popular SUV in the country w

The previous generation XU60 Toyota Harrier was quite a car. The 2.0-litre VVT-iW 8AR-FTS turbocharged 231 PS / 350 Nm was the best turbocharged 4-cylinder engine on the market, until it was pulled off the showroom floor.

It goes without saying that Honda will have its work cut out to improve on the current car. So, let's dive in to what's new and different about the all-new model, compared to its predecessor.

So, the long-awaited 2020 Mazda 3 Turbo hot-hatch is finally launched in America and is apparently only available in left-hand drive (LHD) for now. Excuse me while I wipe away raging tears from my keyboard. Mazda announced its arrival to American shores with a sleek launch film which features the first-generation Cosmo, 787B Le Mans car, and a Mazda 3 2.5 Turbo with some added aero kits. The Mazda 3 Turbo is powered by a 2.5-litre turbocharged Skyactiv-G that produces up to 253 PS and 434 Nm dep
