Per the usual Honda nomenclature four variants will be on offer: S, E, V, and the range-topping RS. All models will be powered by the same 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated four-cylinder mill (no

If you have visited Toyota Malaysia's website recently, you would've noticed that it now has a new layout, with a new 'Move Your World' tagline. It's a fitting new tagline too, because few other brands can claim to have moved Malaysia, literally, for as long as Toyota. If roads are fabrics that weave and connect the many different parts of Malaysia, then Toyota cars are the needle threads.

The wheels look identical to the teaser we covered last week. Details such as the black plastic cladding around the sides and the styling on the rear third-quarter panel lo
