Maruti Suzuki is India’s number one carmaker and in some ways, it is similar to our very own Perodua. However, aside from producing Suzuki models, it has a partnership with Toyota in the subcontinent. This resulted in some Suzuki models sold in India (and South Africa) being offered with a Toyota badge but this Innova Zenix marks the first time a Toyota model is given the Suzuki rebadge in India. Toyota models have been rebadged as Suzuki before outside of India. Europe has the likes of the RAV4

Ever since Toyota debuted the first-generation Toyota Innova back in 2004, the model was locally-assembled (CKD) at the ASSB plant in Shah Alam. However, upon the introduction of the all-new TNGA-C-based 2023 Toyota Innova Zenix, data from Indonesia's automotive industry association GAIKINDO revealed that Toyota Indonesia has exported roughly 200 units of the model to Malaysia back in April, including several units of a curiously-named "H" variant. Further cementing that notion is a set of spysh

Six months after it's made its world debut in Indonesia, the all-new 2023 Toyota Innova has finally arrived in Malaysia. These photos were shared by Facebook page RiderAth, who spotted a carrier with six units of the lightly-masked SUV-esque MPV. The blocky stature, wheels, and silhoutte clearly mark it out as the TNGA-C platform Innova which in itself is shared with the Toyota Corolla Cross and is a departure of the outgoing model's IMV ladder-frame chassis. This next-gen Innova will also switc

We’ve covered the top picks for used sedans and SUVs under RM 80k as a follow-up to the survey that revealed the majority of used car buyers shop below RM 80k. Now we’re moving on to used MPVs within the same budget. As per usual, we’ve disqualified MPVs that are too old – aged above 10 years, since most used car bank loans must be settled before the car turns 13. Premium brands are disqualified again as well, but then again there aren’t many MPVs with a “premium” badge. The BMW 2 Series Gran To

Fans of Kia can expect a new compact 7-seater MPV from the Korean carmaker this year - the Kia KY - according to a leaked document. Sighted by Indian media, the leaked presentation file shows Kia's plans for 2021. While specification details are still shrouded, the KY is said to be a compact 7-seater MPV - think therabouts the size of the Perodua Alza. Meanwhile, it's been rumoured that the KY will be based on the upcoming Hyundai Staria MPV that's reportedly going to be produced in Hyundai's In

Shortly after it was spied in the land of smiles, Thailand became the first country to launch the right-hand-drive all-new fourth-generation Kia Grand Carnival. The Kia Grand Carnival in Thailand only comes in an 11-seater configuration. Two variants are available; the base spec SX and the range-topping SXL. As expected, only the 2.2-litre Smartstream turbodiesel engine made it to our region. The turbodiesel engine is mated to an 8-speed conventional automatic transmission and produces 202 PS an
