The Honda Civic Type R (FK8) is the most accomplished and talented CTR ever made, with numerous circuit lap records under its belt. There’s no denying its credentials as a worthy track weapon but more importantly, it’s also the most forgiving CTR ever made. It’s the duality of the FK8 that captured the hearts of those who are fortunate enough to get behind the wheel of one.

Want another Malaysian F1 driver? Wait for another 20 years, says SIC CEO

新款2021 Toyota Harrier不再使用涡轮增压,原因何在?

上一代XU60 Toyota Harrier的表现相当出色。2.0升VVT-iW 8AR-FTS涡轮增压引擎(231 PS / 350 Nm)一度是市场上最好的涡轮增压四缸引擎,直到它被新一代车型所抛弃。 在所有的强制进气四缸引擎中,8AR-FTS的转速和输出特性是最像自然进气引擎的。 在动力上,它要比入门级的Mercedes-Benz GLC 200还更胜一筹。并不是说GLC不好,但如果你要选购的话,请尽量选择GLC 250(改款车型为300)。 即使是在二手车市场上,XU60 Harrier也依然保持着很高的价格,因为与早期车型不同,XU60也是由UMW Toyota Motor销售的,这意味着售后服务是有保障的。 全新款的XU80 Harrier需要达到很高的标准,它能做到吗?这款车型几日前刚刚上市,并且只提供一款2.0升自然进气车型,售价为RM 249,706(截至2021年6月30日),从日本整车进口(CBU)。 相比之下,上一代XU60 Harrier Turbo是在2017年推出的,Premium车型的售价为RM 238,000,Luxury车型的售价为RM 259,90

No more 231 PS turbocharged engine for all-new 2021 Toyota Harrier, this is why

The previous generation XU60 Toyota Harrier was quite a car. The 2.0-litre VVT-iW 8AR-FTS turbocharged 231 PS / 350 Nm was the best turbocharged 4-cylinder engine on the market, until it was pulled off the showroom floor. Among all force-induction four bangers, the 8AR-FTS revved and pulled most like a naturally-aspirated engine. Dynamically, it was superior to the entry Mercedes-Benz GLC 200. It’s not that the GLC is bad, but if you are shopping for one, stick only to the GLC 250 (re-designated
