Toyota celebrated a winning 2022 in Indonesia, as the carmaker sold 331,410 units of their vehicles in the archipelago last year.

By 2030, you probably won't be able to waltz into showrooms to buy either the Toyota GR86 / Subaru BRZ, or the Mk8 VW Golf GTI new anymore, at least not with the formula these cars are best known for. You can thank new crash test regulations and an increasing disdain of internal combustion engines (ICE) for that. Golf GTI Mk8 continues to be fast, capable, and immensely practical. GR86 / BRZ represents the apogee in affordable RWD driving purity. Last ch

The big grille is coming. Despite the general response of the large vertical grille on the BMW Concept 4, even from China, it appears that BMW is going ahead with the design on the all-new 2020 BMW 4 Series. In a report by BMW Blog, the new 4 Series is slated to arrive in June and since all events are cancelled globally, the reveal will be online via live stream.
