To the tycoons wanting to offset some of that carbon footprint, this here is the first-ever fully-electric 2024 Mercedes-Benz G-Class BEV. Officially, it's named the Mercedes-Benz G580 with EQ Technology, but that's a bit verbose so we'll stick to calling it the G-Class/G-Wagen BEV. It's hard to tell this and the conventional G-Class apart, and that's a good thing. It still looks ever ready to drop in a hot zone in a moment's notice, with the only obvious changes being the most subtle – the lack

Let’s get right down to business. You’d like to know what are the common issues with a used F15 BMW X5 xDrive40e plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and decide if it’s as terrifying to own a used BMW, let alone a hybrid, as some have made it out to be. But before that, here’s a little background of the F15 BMW X5 PHEV in Malaysia. What are the specs of the F15 BMW X5 hybrid? The F15 BMW X5 PHEV was launched in Malaysia back in 2016 with a sole locally-assembled (CKD) variant, the xDrive40e M Sport, priced at

We’re not sure if the marketing people at Volvo thought this one through but maybe there was something in the Schnapps and meatballs when they ideated a video that heralded its plug-in hybrid ((PHEV) models… at the expense of its pure electric vehicles (EV) models. From what we can remember, cannibalising your own models isn’t exactly the way to push the brand forward.

Much has been written about the history of the Land Rover Defender but there is surprisingly very little about it from a Malaysian perspective, which is odd considering the fact that Malaysia (specifically Cameron Highlands) is known around the world as the place Land Rovers go to spend their remaining days. Ipoh’s Jalan Bendahara, specifically S.V.K Trading (erroneously marked by Google Maps as V.K.S Trading) is very well-known among Land Rover enthusiasts in all corners of the world looking fo

It's no secret that SUVs are the flavour of the moment. Almost every carmaker has jumped on to the bandwagon - not just Aston Martin but also Lamborghini, Bentley and Rolls-Royce (and people used to laugh at the Porsche Cayenne). The luxury performance SUV segment is no exception, as you can see with this RM818,000 Aston Martin DBX (before options, taxes and OTR costs). It's hardly the first in this genre of super SUVs, but does it really matter? Taut, handsome and dripping with British sophisti

An all-new Lexus RX is due to be launched in 2022, according to information gathered by Japanese media. Before that, the current-gen model will receive a few small updates in Japan come July 2021. The current RX-series (AL20) made its debut in 2015. The model was then facelifted in May 2019, coming with additional tech and safety features, as well as a visual nip-and-tuck. Malaysians received the facelifted model in September that year. Either way, it's already a 6-year old model, and a major re
