Edaran Tan Chong Motor (ETCM) has just teased the imminent arrival of the all-new 2020 Nissan Almera in its latest ad. The overarching theme in the 1-minute video is “challenge all beliefs”. What is the belief that Nissan wants consumers to challenge? Set to go head-to-head against upcoming Honda City RS when it goes on sale later this year, the hero colour for the all-new Nissan Almera is red – in this case, Radiant Red. Coincidence much? To recap, ETCM held a preview event for the all-new Niss

Generally, most cars don’t last a lifetime and most people would generally own a car for a few years before replacing it. Still, there are some cars which are still running years or even decades after they were bought new. In fact, for this week’s Top Rank, we wanted to focus on the cars that are generally seen as immortal. Some of them might be considered indestructible and can last a lifetime no matter what is thrown in their way. You could even think of them as the automotive equivalent of a

The Honda City is not the only one who is throwing shade at multiple “competitors”! Geely, too, joined the bandwagon with an ad for its upcoming Geely Preface that calls out its luxury competitors. Geely dropped the ad yesterday across their social media platforms and the ad has since gone viral for its unique twist. The ad aims to show off the Geely Preface’s agility thanks to the popular CMA platform on the mountainous winding roads of China. In the video, a driver dressed in a business suit i

Over the past couple of weeks, Honda Malaysia has been targeting the Toyota Vios in its teasers for the all-new 2020 Honda City. It looks like shots are still being fired as we speak, as Honda Malaysia’s latest ad fires shots at the Toyota Camry, Toyota Vios, and Perodua Bezza!

Remember this ad of the BMW M5 camera chaser car filming a land speed record car in the early 2000s? The ad was made to showcase the M5 as the “fastest saloon on the planet”. Fast forward to 2020, this ad has become reality as a video producer converted a BMW M5 into the perfect camera car. Dubbed “The Bavarian Ranch Hand”, this 2002 E39 BMW 5 Series M5 is a purpose-built camera chaser car capable of capturing car-to-car footages at speeds over 200 km/h.
