Compared to Malaysians, Thais are more accepting of hybrid cars probably also due to the more expensive petrol prices over in the Kingdom. While Toyota might be the brand that many around the world see as the pioneer of hybrid vehicles, Honda is the most preferred brand for Thais when it comes to getting one. In 2022, Honda is ranked number one in terms of electrified vehicles (xEV) sales in Thailand with cumulative sales of 26,660 units which translate to a 30% market share. Honda offers 6 e:HE

The Chery Group concluded 2022 with 105,483 units sold in December, totalling a record 1,232,727 units globally in 2022 (up 28.2 per cent year-on-year), of which 451,337 units were in exports (up 67.7 per cent YoY).

The Harrier is refined, great to drive, and comfortable all at once. The perfect real-world luxury SUV, if you ask us.

For example, both the Mazda CX-8 and Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace R-Line are nice to drive, but both feel worlds apart in terms of driving experience. The confusion stems from the rather vague description of the phrase “nice to drive” and every individual may have a slightly different interpretation of it. Some use the phrase to des

Japan’s best-selling car is no longer the Toyota Corolla, but the Toyota Raize. Since it went on sale in Japan last November, the Raize has been climbing up the sales charts. In the first six months of 2020, the Toyota Raize was sold 58,942 times over, surpassing the Toyota Corolla’s 57,235 units and Honda Fit (Jazz)’s 50,029 units. Its sister-car the Daihatsu Rocky, which the Toyota Raize is based on, didn’t sell as well though, with just 17,455 units sold. This is to be expected. Although the
