Di Jepun, kereta telah menjadi lebih daripada sebuah kenderaan. Akibat daripada industri yang berkembang pesat dan komitmen tinggi terhadap industri pembuatan, kereta dari Jepun telah menjadi sebahagian daripada gaya hidup dan budaya. Oleh hal yang demikian, tidak mengejutkan apabila kadang kala sebuah model JDM yang jarang dijumpai muncul di Malaysia.

It appears that the appeal of ‘lambang’ H is not confined to Malaysia as the Honda City is the best-selling B-segment sedan in Thailand for the month of October. With 3,024 units sold in the Land of Smiles, that easily puts ahead of rivals like the Toyota Yaris ATIV (Vios to us Malaysians but with a smaller 1.2-litre engine) and the Nissan Almera. Both the Yaris ATIV and Almera recorded 2,096 and 1,621 units sold in the same month respectively. According to Headlight Magazine, this is the third

The C-segment SUV market is surely one of the most competitive in Malaysia. With almost every major carmaker offering one, it’s not hard to see why these are gaining popularity among Malaysians. They are spacious and practical for a growing family, with some even offering 7 seats. Plus, with a higher driving position, it’s probably an ideal vehicle for those who wish to command more presence on the road. But while practicality and size are determining factors in getting a C-segment SUV, another

Generally, most cars don’t last a lifetime and most people would generally own a car for a few years before replacing it.

We all know the Toyota Avanza. The strangely proportioned 7-seater MPV that has the ground clearance of an SUV. While opinions are split between the car’s look, there was no denying that it was a helpful workhorse whether you’re ferrying workers or family around. Those on the elderly side also love the height clearance as it means easier ingress and egress!
