Vietnam's car market witnessed several sales upsets in 2023, most notably by way of Hyundai topping sales charts in their respective segments, reports Autopro.com.vn. Toyota Vios loses out to Hyundai Accent In the B-segment sedan segment, the Hyundai Accent recorded 17,452 units sold, enough to garner it a 34.2% market share in the class. It's a substantial lead of 3,931 units over the second-placed Toyota Vios (2022's segment winner). Point to note however is that their Vios isn't the all-new m

Sedans were once Proton’s bread-and-butter models, but with the rise in popularity of SUVs, sedans had to take a backseat in Proton’s line-up. Until now, that is. Following the introduction of two SUVs over the past 4 years, namely the Proton X50 and Proton X70, the Malaysian Tiger is set to introduce a brand new sedan, roughly 6 years since Proton last launched a brand-new sedan. While initial details are scarce at the moment, we do know that the new sedan will be based heavily on the recently-

Toyota and Suzuki’s partnership will soon hit a high gear, as recent reports are saying that the Indian-market Suzuki Ertiga could be the next model to be rebadged by Toyota.

However, development on the next-gen Avanza is ongoing, based on this photo and it is getting a front-wheel drive (FWD) layout! It was uploaded by a Facebook user named Rizal ZeroTwo and showed what appeared to be the next-gen Avanza undergoing testing in Indonesia. This photo pretty much confirms our suspicion that the next-gen Avanza will be FWD as opposed to the outgoing generation's rear-wheel drive set-up. As you

The year 2020 is about to reach its closure with a little more than a month to go. Though it is mostly a pathetic year and not one we envisioned when we were younger (90s kids will remember this), the cars that were launched were at least worth it (some weren't). Instead of gushing over what are our favourite cars of 2020, for now, we would like to focus on what cars to get excited for next year. Here’s a quick summary of what models would be launched in 2021. 2021 Car Launches Brand Model BMW 2
