As expected, there are significant increase in prices of the new 2023 BMW 3 Series (LCI). Where the previous model started from RM 257,800 for the entry 320i variant, inclusive of 5-year warranty and service package, the new 320i now starts from RM 283,800. This follows an earlier announcement by BMW Group Malaysia saying that there will be an increase in prices of its 2023 models, due to global inflation and increase in manufacturing cost. There is some consolation though. The RM 26k bump in pr

Other than electric vehicles (EV) – of which Malaysia welcomed the Ioniq 5 and Mercedes-Benz EQA 250 this week – hydrogen-fuelled cars are another bet on clean motoring. Munich is in the game too, and they're currently undergoing final winter tests for the BMW iX5 Hydrogen. The car is currrently being driven on icy, snowy public roads and at the BMW Group's testing centre in Arjeplog, Sweden.
