Honda has officially revealed the prices and specifications for the upcoming 2023 Honda WR-V in Japan, prior to its proper launch there on 22-March 2024. Prices of the JP-spec WR-V As expected and most importantly, the WR-V will be available in three variants, as below: WR-V X: JPY 2,098,000 (~RM 68k) WR-V Z: JPY 2,349,600 (~RM 74k) WR-V Z+: JPY 2,489,300 (~RM 81k) This is quite a fair bit cheaper than the slightly more upmarket Honda Vezel (HR-V for us), which goes from JPY 2,399,100 (~RM 78k)

The premium SUV market was shaped by the Toyota Harrier Four generations, only one had a turbo But power has never been what the Harrier is about It’s obvious by now that SUVs are the current flavour of the automotive world.

Development work for the first-generation Toyota Harrier began as early as 1994 an

Base model cars with steel wheels and unpainted bumpers are pretty much a thing of the past in Malaysia. In its lowest trim, the Proton X50 is still well-equipped and starts at RM 72,900* (1.5T Standard). But what if there was a cheaper variant? Well, Theophilus Chin has had enough free time to render this Proton X50 “Kosong Spec” in white, complete with steelies and to be honest, it doesn't look too bad.
