To say it was a success for Toyota’s sales department during the recently held Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show or GIIAS 2023 event would be an understatement. PT Toyota Astra Motor (TAM), the holders of the brand across the Straits of Malacca, claims to have collected 5,796 bookings. However, the highlight would have to be that over 80 percent of Toyota Yaris Cross and Kijang Innova Zenix buyers opted for the hybrid variants. GIIAS 2023 was held from 10-20 August 2023 and many of Toyo

The all-new C28 sixth generation 2023 Nissan Serena was announced for Japan in November last year, initially with a 2.0-litre naturally aspired MR20DD engine (150 PS / 200 Nm). Bookings for the fuel-sipping series-hybrid 1.4-litre e-Power variant (HR14DDe, 163 PS / 315 Nm) followed later in February 2023. Now, Nissan has revealed it has collected over 20,000 bookings for the Serena e-Power variant in just two months. Deliveries will begin on 20-April. Nissan adds that e-Power variants now contri

Kia has revealed the facelifted 2022 Kia Seltos B-segment SUV and with it slated for a release in Malaysia in Q4 of 2022, it might just be the refresh required to stick it to its rivals in the hotly contested segment.

The DRLs stretch into the “tiger nose” grille, itself updated with a new

Keyboards have been chattering ever since a mystery model was teased on Honda Indonesia's Facebook page a few days ago. All we know about it thus far is that they'll be hosting a world premiere of said new model this coming Monday, 3-May 2021. The rumour mill has been working overtime following the announcement. Now, the page further sends things into hyperdrive with this second photo, showing off the upcoming car's tail lights. Adjusting the picture still doesn't give away too much, apart from

As reported earlier, Honda has just taken the wraps off the all-new 2021 Honda HR-V. If you have been living under a rock for some time, the outgoing model was a wild and resounding success on our shores (I have one sitting in my garage, so I'd know). 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. Exterior I've said this many times that the current HR-V

A heavily camouflaged SUV has been spotted on the roads and based on what we can make of the SUV’s outline, it can’t be anything else but the 2020 Toyota Corolla Cross! When the Corolla Cross made its debut earlier in July, we also estimated that the SUV will be coming to Malaysia as a locally-assembled (CKD) unit by the end of this year or early next 2021. Looks like our predictions are spot-on now that the car has been spotted on our roads. According to our friends in Careta, the location the
