Volkswagen Passenger Cars Malaysia (VPCM) has refreshed its eShowroom to provide greater convenience for those looking to purchase a Volkswagen. On the revamped website, customers will now have access to available units on sale at Volkswagen authorised dealerships nationwide in real time. Loosely based on the concept of “what you see is what you get”, only models that are available at dealerships will be featured. Customers may search the website to find what models are currently available and t

Late last month, Geely launched the all-new 2021 Geely Emgrand. The new Emgrand is positioned slightly above the entry-level Geely Yuanjing (Vision) sedan in Geely’s extensive line-up. In China, the 2021 Geely Emgrand is priced from CNY 69,900 (~RM 45k) for the base five-speed manual variant, topping out at CNY 88,900 (~RM 58k) for the top-spec variant. While these prices put the 2021 Geely Emgrand in the same bracket as the B-segment Toyota Vios, the former’s dimensions are actually closer to C

Hyundai’s first-ever proper hot hatch has been given a facelift since it was introduced in 2017.

The godfather of hot hatchbacks is now in its eighth generation, known as the Golf GTI Mark 8 (Mk8).

The EA888 engine, now in its fourth generation, produces 245 PS/370 Nm and will almost certainly be paired to the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DSG) when it arrives in Malaysia. While official figures have yet to be disclosed, the

After much anticipation, the 2020 Honda Civic facelift is now officially on sale. Honda Malaysia has already announced what’s new in the Civic, but what else is new? On the outside, the facelifted Honda Civic gains a more angular front bumper complete with new fog lamp housing to pair with the new piano black front grille that gives the car a sportier look. The rather plain rear bumper of the pre-facelift Civic gets jacked up with a sliver of chrome trim running across the edge. Honda has also i

The generation of Golf (MK7) has been around for seven years, and it's pretty much a textbook step to proceed with another model renewal. Volkswagen recently released a press release detailing its full line-up for the 2020 model year. The name of Golf R, however, seems to be marked out of the curriculum. Later in Volkswagen's official response, we find no relief for those who concrened about the layoff. Except for the hot all-wheel-drive hatchback which reached the end of production in Mk7 form,
