The 2020 Toyota RAV4 had finally made it to Malaysia back in June. Despite its hefty price, we think that the fifth-generation's rugged look matches its friendly soft-roader capabilities. However, if you think it’s not rugged enough, there are aero kits available courtesy of Toyota’s customising arm, Modellista. According to Wing Hin Motorsports on their Facebook page, you can check out this Modellista RAV4 at their Toyota 4S showroom in Balakong, Selangor. The Modellista kit adds a front spoile

Sejak beberapa bulan yang lalu, Toyota Yaris telah mengungguli jualan hatchback segmen B bukan nasional di Malaysia mengatasi Honda Jazz.

The 2020 Toyota GR Yaris was launched in Malaysia yesterday evening, at a surprisingly low price of RM 299,000 (Update: RM 286,896 until June 2021). We say low because our local specifications GR Yaris comes equipped with Torsen Limited Slip Differential, BBS alloy wheels, Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tyres, thicker anti-roll bars, and beefier front suspension – all optional extras elsewhere, equal to the UK market’s Circuit Package. Like for like, a GR Yaris with this specification is supposed to be

Owners of the Toyota Hilux who feel their pick-up truck is a little too humdrum can now look towards Modellista's latest kit - which is now available in Malaysia! The multi-piece kit is relatively simple - up front, the touches include a set of fog lamp garnishes, a front spoiler, and a grille garnish. Along the sides, it's beefed-up by a set of gloss-black overfenders, new wheels, and striping. The back looks pretty untouched, and like most other Modellista kit, no performance modifications wer

This Modellista body kit is designed specifically for the Toyota Raize - aka Daihatsu Rocky - in Japan, but does this mean it will fit on the upcoming Perodua D55L which is based on the Rocky? Wing Hin Motorsports' Facebook page has hinted the availability of the styling package in Malaysia. In theory, the package should allow D55L owners a chance to upgrade the looks of their B-segment SUV. The Modellista Advance Blast Style is an official body kit offered by Toyota for the Raize.

Modellista车体套件是专门为日本的Toyota Raize(又名Daihatsu Rocky)专门打造的,但这是否也意味着,它也适用于基于Rocky开发的、即将上市的Perodua D55L?Wing Hin Motorsport的Facebook首页已经暗示了,这款造型套件可能将进入大马。从理论上来说,对于D55L的车主们,这个套件能够让自己的B级SUV来一次外观的大升级。 Modellista Advance Blast Style是Toyota官方为Raize提供的车体套件,它包括变形金刚风格的前唇、侧裙、粗壮的后裙和尾翼。 同时,套件也将原厂的排气管换成了双出排气,并用18英寸的轮圈替换了原厂的17英寸轮圈。 从2019年上市到2020年7月份,不到一年的时间里,Toyota Razie很快就超越了Toyota Corolla,成为了日本最畅销的新车。有趣的是,它的双生车——Daihatsu Rocky,却没有取得这么好的成绩。 Raize/Rocky是基于Daihatsu的新DNGA平台开发的第一款车,它的车长小于4米,所以这辆“轻型”SUV十分适合日本狭窄的道路。

When Ford Performance unleashed the Ford Ranger Raptor, many were disappointed that the pick-up truck came with a 2.0-litre twin turbo diesel engine and lacks the bite of the F-150 Raptor’s V6. One company recently decided to do just that by fitting the epic 3.5-litre V6 engine into the Ranger Raptor. To recap, the Ford Ranger Raptor is the smaller and tamer version of the Ford F-150 Raptor. Thanks to its 20-foot-long body and 3.5-litre twin-turbo Ecoboost V6 engine that dispenses 456 PS and acc

The Japanese Bubble Era of the late eighties and early nineties was a wonderful time to be around as a car fan. That period saw Japan’s automotive industry exploded into an era filled with technological and design masterpieces. The soaring asset prices and strong Japanese yen caused Japanese automakers like Nissan, Toyota and Honda to be more daring by launching legendary icons like the R32 Skyline GT-R and the Honda NSX as well as luxury brands like Lexus and Infiniti. At the same time, most of

How does one differentiate between a spoiler and a wing? Well, sage spaniel-haired motoring host James “Captain Slow” May has a novel way to differentiate between a wing and a spoiler. He said in a review for the Honda Civic Type R FK8 that if his head can go through the space, then it’s a wing. Well, that's a definition we can live by and the wing is one of those tools that many car fanboys love to show off thinking it makes their car faster. But those who have a much more mature taste in cars

The Toyota Vios has its ups and downs but there is no denying that it is still a hugely popular car. You can’t walk 10 steps without stumbling over one in a parking lot. The Vios seems like it’s been around for years, 18 years to be exact. Wait what? But it feels longer! It’s true that the Vios started life only in 2002. It was a car created specifically to be sold in the Asia-Pacific market taking over the small sedan segment baton from what ASEAN regions know as the Toyota Soluna. Never heard

Do you know what’s a blind spot? Let me paint a scenario: you’ve just exited the Seremban highway and you’re about to merge into the MEX highway. You’re caught behind a slower car and you would like to make an overtake, you checked your right wing mirror, coast is clear and you decided to make a lane change. Only to be met by an angry blaring honk from a car in the right lane and the glare of the driver who had to avoid crashing into you by escaping onto the right most lane. The reason you didn’

Initially conceived as a better alternative to blind spot monitoring, Honda’s ingenious LaneWatch system could be discontinued in the near future. What is Honda LaneWatch? Honda LaneWatch, like the name suggests, utilizes a camera mounted on the passenger-side wing mirror that feeds a video stream to your car’s head unit. The aim is to allow drivers to see if there are motorcyclists or other drives in their blind spot, and it also works in poor weather conditions. If it’s so good, why does Honda
