The Toyota Veloz, the successor to the trusted Avanza nameplate, risks being overshadowed by its overachieving, fantastically good value-for-money twin the Perodua Alza. Making the sales pitch even harder is the fact that the Veloz is built in the same plant as the Alza. Being a Toyota, the Veloz will of course have a bit more features than the Alza – wireless Apple CarPlay for seamless smartphone connectivity, LED ambient lighting so the cabin looks classier at night, 17-inch wheels, and two-to

Mysterious Civic-based SUV now spotted in China Larger than HR-V, but smaller than CR-V Pick this over the Corolla Cross? What started off as a wild rumour is gradually turning into a reality. We’re talking about the Honda Civic-based SUV that slots between the HR-V and CR-V. Seems like Honda is aiming right at the Toyota Corolla Cross with its brand-new model.

Today’s the media preview of the 2020 Proton X50 and while most of you are probably anticipating the price and how it drives, let’s not forget one of the X50’s key selling points, its safety features.

Okay, settle down everyone. The all-new 2020 Proton X50 is finally here and though there are still some naysayers who wished for Proton to stop rebadging existing products, we have to admit that the car looks set to be another runaway success for Proton. It is based on the Geely Binyue (or Coolray as it is known in the Philippines) and while some might think that, “Oh, it’s just a rebadged Chinese crossover with a few bits of Proton badging” or even more optimistically, “It’s a Volvo with a Prot

After months of spy shots and speculations, we finally have an official teaser of the upcoming 2020 Proton X50. But wait! The "teaser" was uploaded on a Facebook page operated by a Proton dealer in Kuching and has since been deleted. Based on the headlights along with Proton's Infinite Weave grille on the SUVs in the darkened image, we are looking at both the Proton X70 and Proton X50.

10 years ago, we entered 2010 with the introduction of the then-new Perodua Alza, an affordable 7-seater MPV (actually it's a 5+2 seater) aimed for the masses. 10 years later in 2020 and Perodua still sells the Alza, albeit with some minor updates to keep it fresh. Unlike the larger Proton Exora which received powertrain and safety updates over the course of its model lifespan, the same cannot be said for the Alza.
