Hope is a fickle thing, especially among Malaysians and car enthusiasts. Much like the revolving door of politicians claiming to be a part of “family”, Mazda is letting some of its fans down by cancelling the next-gen Mazda 6 which was supposed to be based on Mazda’s rear-wheel-drive (RWD) Large Architecture. Over the past two years, Japanese media have been reporting rumours that Mazda is developing the next-gen Mazda 6 and it wouldn’t just have an expected pretty face. The planned successor wa

"That is how we are challenging premium car makers without becoming one ourselves," is how Volkswagen's product planning boss Dr. Elmar-Marius Licharz describes the VW Arteon. What's the idea behind having a VW taking attention away from Audi is something we won't really know. What's certain is that it's a deliberate, calculated move. A car doesn’t just exist the way it does because some designer or some engineer woke up one morning with an epiphany of what a great car should be, at least not in

At WapCar.my, we put every car through the scrutiny of Ratings tests. Every aspect such as driving performance, fuel consumption, or even price and maintenance are evaluated accordingly. To date, we have sampled well over 40 cars and you can check out the full Ratings list here. In this article, we'll go through the top 5 cars with the lowest fuel consumption during our tests. Before we start, do note that our method of testing relies on the fuel station’s pump, which in turn relies on pressure

There was a time when the Volkswagen Passat was priced closer to a BMW 3 Series or a Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and a brand-new Honda Accord can be bought for less than RM 150k.

The 2020 Honda Accord 1.5 TC-P is priced at RM 187,390 (0% SST) while the 2020 Volkswagen Passat R-Line is priced at RM 204,433 (0% SST). Both the 2020 Honda Accord and 2020 Volkswagen Passat made it into our very own shortlist for Car of the Year awards. We love

Remember the Volkswagen Passat CC? The sexy, low-slung, four-door coupe that lured a number of Malaysians away from the usual compact execs like the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class. The Volkswagen Arteon is the successor to the Passat CC and it aims to accomplish what its predecessor did. Back when the Passat CC had a facelift, the Passat nameplate was dropped and simplified to just Volkswagen CC. Then, Volkswagen ditched it altogether for its successor and called it the Arteon, clearly p

A video of a black Nissan Teana driving dangerously on a crowded road while trying to escape a chasing traffic policeman has gone viral since Monday. The policeman was seen chasing the car, first on his motorcycle, before continuing on foot while shouting at on-coming traffic to avoid the dangerously driven Teana. In the video, the policeman had no choice but to shoot the Teana’s front wheel to stop the car from escaping. According to The Star, the driver continued to plough through the traffic
