“The interest is calculated based on the principal sum and not the remaining balance, that’s crazy!” That was the conversation I had a car company executive who has just been transferred from Europe to Malaysia. The topic of increasingly long loan tenures for auto loans is also becoming a concern in the US but how long is too long for them? 7-year tenure auto loans now make up 20 percent of total US car loans – more than twice as many compared to 10 years ago. To many financial experts in the US

In 1949, the loan tenure for a VW Beetle was 12 months with an interest rate of 9 % per annum. Things have changed. In Malaysia today, car loan tenures are usually of 5,7, or even 9 years with interest rates hovering around 3% per annum (calculated on principal). Cars are getting more expensive and are almost impossible to purchase without using a loan. But is taking a car loan a bad financial decision? Well, it depends on your financial circumstances (mainly your income), how much you benefit f

The Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) is urging the Ministry of Finance (MoF) and Bank Negara Malaysia to compel banks to extend the deferment of loans for another six months. The current 6-month moratorium was announced back in March when the first stage of the Movement Control Order (MCO) was enforced in an effort to prevent the spread of the pandemic. With all activities and businesses put on pause, many people were either forced to take massive pay cuts, go on unpaid leaves by employers
The following is still a developing news, we will update it when clearer official announcements are made. We were tipped off by our friends at Careta.my that banks might begin imposing interest charges on delayed/outstanding car loan repayments of borrowers who took up the 6-month moratorium. A statement released by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) earlier today said “…banking institutions are in the process of formalising agreements which reflect the revised payment terms with borrowers/customers wit
Bank Negara Malaysia have announced a 6-month moratorium for all bank loans except credit card balances, starting 1 April 2020. The moratorium is basically a temporary freeze on loan repayments. However, do remember that the moratorium applies only to loan repayments. Interests will continue to accrue every month as usual. Also, the moratorium applies only to loans that have not been in arrears (all previous payments owed paid in full) for more than 90 days as of 1 April 2020. How does the 6-mon

Buying a used car can be great value for money. The initial depreciation has to took place and you have more choices with a smaller budget. It sounds like a no brainer, but buying a used car can also be a nightmare. Take for instance, the case of tampered mileage and “erased” warning lights. Careta and Malaysian Modders have recently highlighted the issue of a used car dealer guilty of this misconduct. Lower-mileage used cars are valued higher, hence the motivation to tamper with the mileage is
The 6-month long loan moratorium is set to expire in September and its expiry could have some negative impact on the Malaysian automotive industry. The loan moratorium went into effect in April as the country entered the Movement Control Order (MCO) period. Malaysian Automotive Association (MAA) president Datuk Aishah Ahmad told The Edge, “People will not have the money to buy new vehicles. But I think it depends on the category of vehicles. I think high-end vehicles will not be impacted; people
Do you check your surroundings or your side mirrors before you open your car door? If you do, then pat yourself on the back. If you don’t, then you should start this healthy habit. Accidents where pedestrians, especially bicyclists, ran into opening car doors are becoming a common occurrence that the term ‘car dooring’ has been coined to describe these accidents. Warning: Might be too painful for some to watch Pedestrians and bicyclists alike will not be able to know your intention to get out of
If you have committed traffic offenses recently, it’s best to pay up and avoid getting yourself blacklisted as the Road Transport Department (JPJ) is now coming after 2.7 million outstanding summonses. Covering offenses such as speeding, using a mobile phone while driving and not having a valid driving licence, the summonses stretch back to 2010 and are valued at RM 800 million. “JPJ would be taking actions against motorists who have yet to pay their summons arrears by blacklisting them when the
Used car sales have been seeing positive growth in Malaysia in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. So, Sime Darby Auto Selection has seen another potential in this by launching its own online used car store. The website allows customers to search from a wide range of high-quality used cars which also include nearly-new vehicles.

Car care isn't daunting. It pays to do these simple checks and avoid repair bills and headaches in the end. Got it? Simple concept for a simple topic, so let’s go! 1. Check your coolant level See the radiator cap? Some cars have it placed differently, so if you can’t find it on your car at that position, look for the boat shape and bright sticker up top. All you have to do is unscrew it and add plain water (nothing else) to it. Engines heat up while driving, and if there’s not enough water in yo
The Mazda 3 Touring Car Racing (TCR) is the latest addition to Mazda’s motorsports program, which will hit the racetrack in 2020. Information on specifications are scarce but what we do know is that power comes from a turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, making 350 horses mated to a 6-speed transmission with paddle shifters. The designers have spent countless hours to ensure that the Mazda 3 TCR is compliant with all TCR regulations and flows with the smooth lines on the Mazda 3, retaining the signat
Forget your Bugatti Chiron or 740 PS Volkswagen Golf, the Ford Focus is in fact the fastest car in the world. That’s exactly what an Italian woman woke up to when she was sent a speeding fine claiming she zipped past a speed trap at 703 km/h in a 70 km/h zone. That’s almost the cruising speed of a Boeing 747 and probably broke a couple of rules, so she was fined EUR 864 and docked 10 points off her licence. Putting two and two together we know that it’s caused by a faulty camera, but bureaucracy
Pada tahun 1949, tempoh pinjaman bagi sebuah VW Beetle ialah 12 bulan dengan kadar bunga tahunan 9%. Itu dulu, sekarang dah lain. Kini, di Malaysia, tempoh pinjaman kereta selalunya untuk lima, tujuh atau sembilan tahun dengan kadar bunga tahunan berubah-ubah sekitar 3% (dikira berdasarkan jumlah prinsipal). Kereta-kereta zaman sekarang pun makin mahal dan hampir mustahil bagi kebanyakan orang untuk membelinya secara tunai. Tapi, adakah meminjam untuk membeli kereta satu perkara yang buruk? Perk
