There was a short period of time between 2011 until 2013 when Malaysian car buyers enjoyed a too good to be true deal - import and excise duties were completely waived for fully imported hybrid models with engine capacities below 2,000 cc. The Japan-made Toyota Prius, Honda Insight and CR-Z were introduced here. Between 2009 to 2010, duty exemption was also available, but at a lower rate - 100 percent exemption on import duties and 50 percent discount on excise duties. At a time when even the mo

PT Astra Toyota Motor, Toyota’s Indonesian distributor, has launched the Sienta Welcab in Indonesia. This marks the first time Toyota’s assisted-mobility vehicle was offered officially outside of Japan. The Indonesian-spec Sienta Welcab is powered by the same 1.5-litre 2NR-FE engine as the rest of the Sienta line-up as well as the Malaysian-spec Vios and Yaris. That engine is mated to either a 6-speed manual or a CVT. One of the major features that stand out in the Sienta Welcab is of course the

For many Malaysians wanting a brand-new pure hybrid car, the Hyundai Ioniq is one of the few choices for those wanting to drive green. However, it appears that the model has been dropped for the Malaysian market. A quick search on Hyundai’s website shows that the Ioniq is absent from its model line-up. Though some markets including Australia and Singapore have received the facelift, there has been no news for its arrival in Malaysia. The locally-assembled (CKD) Ioniq was unveiled here back in 20

对于许多想买纯混动汽车的马来西亚人来说，Hyundai Ioniq是为数不多的绿色选择。然而，这款车型似乎已经要退出大马市场了。 快速在Hyundai的网站上浏览一下，我们会发现Ioniq已经在车系列表中消失了。尽管像澳大利亚和新加坡等国的Ioniq车型都已经进行了升级改款，但我国目前还没有任何消息。 本地组装（CKD）的Ioniq在2016年由Hyundai Sime Darby Motors（HSDM）发布上市，共有两个车型可选，分别为HEV和HEV Plus，标价从RM 99,888起跳。 Ioniq的这两个车型都搭载了一具1.6升的Kappa II汽油缸内直喷（GDI）引擎，搭配一具32kW的电动马达，混合动力输出达到了141 PS和265 Nm。 Ioniq是我国最省油的车型，HEV Plus车型的油耗低至百公里4.9公升。除了省油以外，它也是ASEAN NCAP测试过的最安全的车型，成绩高达91.98分。 遗憾的是，大马人民对混动车的认可度并不高，因此其改款车型很可能不会在我国推出。不过，如果你对Ioniq还有兴趣，或许你唯一的选择就是二手车市场了，况且在那里你也能有更多的

We’ve previously reported a spy shot of the upcoming Toyota Corolla Cross and determined that the SUV will be coming with a big spoiler on its back. Now we have our first look of the front-end.

Toyota’s small cars family will be next in line to benefit from Toyota’s much vaunted TNGA platform. Short for Toyota New Global Architecture, the all-new TNGA platform has been the key reason why recent Toyota models like C-HR, Camry, and Corolla have been grabbing the title of best-in-class handling away from Mazda. Currently, there are three variations of Toyota’s TNGA platform (actually there are four if you include the Lexus LS’ GA-L). GA-C was the first of the TNGA platform series introduc

When the 200 PS Toyota 86 was first launched in Malaysia in 2012, its asking price was RM 243,000 for the manual, and RM 249,000 for the automatic variant. For a supposedly affordable sports car, its pricing in Malaysia is hardly affordable at all. The more powerful (220 PS), more practical Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk7 can be had for about RM17k less, at RM 227,888. Toyota 86 UMW Toyota then introduced the facelifted 86 in 2017.
