MINI presents a forward-looking design called Charismatic Simplicity for its upcoming all-electric model family. This design language prioritises essential elements for a sleek and minimalistic aesthetic. Though, yes, MINI's describes it as a 'new model family', the cars themselves look a lot like Countryman- and Cooper-sized products. Semantics aside, a lot of it is pretty nice. Characterised by uniquely-MINI design features, it also integrates sustainable manufacturing into the whole design el

Subaru Corporation announced that they have cumulatively sold over 5 million vehicles that features their EyeSight technology (Subaru's version of ADAS) since it was first introduced in 2008. Also read: What is ADAS and why do we need them in our cars? Subaru was the pioneer in using solely stereo cameras for driving assistance providing features such as adaptive cruise control and pre-collision braking that detects not only cars, but also pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists in the vehicle’

To an extent, the 'default' choices in Malaysia's price-sensitive compact SUV market are pretty predictable: you'll usually hear of the Honda HR-V, Proton X50, and the Toyota Corolla Cross. We applaud those who mention the 2022 Subaru XV EyeSight, because this relatively left-field choice is one not to be missed if you're in the market for a new SUV. Squeezing in late last year, the facelifted model (still locally-assembled, CKD Segambut) receives a fair few goodies, most notable of which is sta

Alongside the JCW 3 Door facelift, MINI Malaysia has also launched the 2021 MINI JCW Countryman facelift. As before, it’s fully imported from the UK and is priced at RM 383,463 (OTR without insurance, inclusive of SST discount and extended warranty with service package). Powertrain remains unchanged; the B48 2.0-litre turbocharged engine makes 306 PS and 450 Nm of torque (up by 114 PS/170 Nm from the Cooper S version). Drive is sent to all four wheels via an 8-speed automatic transmission. 0-100

Remember the Subaru Viziv Concept? It was first unveiled in 2019, and now sources say that it'll make its world debut as a production car sometime in December 2021. The render above by Japanese media gives an artist impression of how the car could look like. Judging by the render, we can expect the production vehicle (dubbed 'Adrenaline' for now) to keep the concept's 'coupe-SUV' form, but expect further design tweaks as the car heads to production. Sources also report that the upcoming model wi

The Subaru WRX is one of those old-school four-door performance sedans that just refuses to give up. Even in an age where hot hatches are the in-thing. Subaru too isn’t giving up on an icon by slapping it on a crossover, unlike some other Japanese manufacturer. Just like the barrage of Mazda scoops yesterday, our Japanese media friends are also busy with another smaller Japanese carmaker. According to Best Car Web, Subaru is eyeing to unleash the next-gen WRX in August 2021. This will be the thi
