Perodua Ativa (D55L) bakal dilancarkan dalam beberapa jam sahaja lagi. SUV segmen B ini mendatangkan pelbagai ciri yang pertama buat Perodua. Antaranya seperti platform DNGA dan transmisi CVT. Selain itu, Perodua Ativa (D55L) juga adalah model Perodua pertama yang datang dengan enjin turbo. Teknologi sebegini sudah pasti menimbulkan rasa teruja di kalangan rakyat Malaysia. Walaupun enjin 1.0L 1KR-VET yang didatangkan hanya menghasilkan 98 PS dan 140 Nm tork sahaja, pecutan 0-100 km/j (spec AWD d
As you might have already know, the latest fifth generation Honda City has just gone on sale in Thailand earlier this year. Honda's B-segment sedan will now one-up its chief rival the Toyota Vios with an all-new 1.0-litre turbocharged engine. The latest Honda City is not expected to be launched in Malaysia until 2021. Thailand remains the only market in the world to sell it, to be followed by India in the second half of 2020, and the rest of world starting 2021. This means that we can't give you
Honda engineers have actually published their research on the 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged engine that made its way into the 2020 Honda City in Thailand. With such insights, we thought we'd share our view on it. The 1.0-litre VTEC Turbo engine was first introduced in the European Honda Civic hatchback. Mechanically, the powertrain is identical to the one in the turbocharged Honda City. With that established, let’s crack on. There were 3 goals during the development of this engine: Superior
A facelift for the Malaysian Toyota Fortuner is due soon. Judging by the Thai-spec Toyota Fortuner, the 2021 facelift is bound to bring some significant changes (if the Legender variants were to make it to our shores). Since the Toyota Hilux has received a facelift very recently, it is reasonable to expect the Toyota Fortuner to follow suit. The first-generation Toyota Fortuner (2004) was developed by Thai and Japanese engineers in Thailand. The first-gen received two facelifts (2008 & 2011), an
The Perodua D55L’s official launch date is fast approaching and the SUV will feature many firsts for the brand. This includes the first model to be built on the DNGA platform and the first to get a CVT gearbox. Apart from those, the D55L will also be the first Perodua model to be powered by a turbocharged engine. Read also: Quick review: 2021 Perodua D55L – The best Perodua to date? Granted, it won’t be the next quick thing but a turbocharged Perodua is still pretty exciting nevertheless. The 1.
Say what you want about Made in China because the Chinese have come a very long way from mass-producing cheap knockoffs to becoming the technology hub they are today. Huawei, Alibaba (yes Alibaba is a tech company) and Geely are now familiar names to the rest of the world. Although the latter only made its wave among Malaysians in 2017 after acquiring a 49.9% stake in Proton. Since then Geely-Proton partnership has made technologies such as 4G online connectivity, intelligent voice command, Adva
Indonesian automotive website AutonetMagz recently posted photos of what appears to be a Daihatsu Tanto on the streets of Indonesia. According to them, photos of the Daihatsu Tanto started to surface a couple of month ago, and some speculated that Daihatsu Indonesia could introduce the kei car there. In the past, Daihatsu Indonesia used to sell the Daihatsu Copen, but sales were short-lived as the Copen was priced too high for the average Indonesian buyer. However, Amelia Tjandra, the Marketing
The Geely Binyue Pro has just gone on sale in China and besides the minor cosmetic changes, the Chinese carmaker also threw in a major surprise – a new 1.4-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder petrol engine with 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. There are now 2 petrol engine options of the Binyue Pro – the 1.5-litre turbocharged 3-cylinder and a new 1.4-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder. The 3-cylinder unit is something we’re quite familiar with, it’s a unit co-developed with Volvo and it packs 177 PS and
As anticipation grows over the 2021 Perodua Ativa, lots have been said about Perodua's newest upstart - especially in terms of its powertrain. In case you didn't already know, the turbocharged engine and CVT combo will be Perodua's first, but it's seen reliable use powering other models. What other cars share this engine? Codenamed 1KR-VET, the 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder mill found in the Ativa was first introduced in 2016, and is currently shared by a couple of very toughly-named car
The all-new 2020 Honda City has just made its global debut in Bangkok yesterday. It comes with a 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine. Prices in Thailand have dropped by around 2 to 10 percent, depending on variant, but that’s mostly because the cleaner emissions 1.0-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine now consumes just 4.2-litre/100 km under the UNECE R101 test cycle, with CO2 emissions just under 100 g/km, thus qualifying it for lower excise duties - down from 20 percent in the pr
Engines are getting smaller and smaller by the day thanks to the help of an invention that dates all the way back to 1905 – the turbocharger. First used in aeroplanes with radial engines, the turbocharger was then used in big multi-cylinder diesel engines and finally found its way into production cars in the 1960s. In Malaysia, turbochargers are a great way to have more power while avoiding the more expensive road tax for large capacity engines. We are about to see more small turbocharged engine
After its global debut back in April, the all-new Nissan Almera will be introduced in the ASEAN region as soon as November, starting with Thailand. According to Thai auto site headlightmag, Nissan could be introducing the all-new Almera at the 2019 Thailand Motor Expo in November, before introducing to other nations within the region. The report also mentioned that the all-new Almera will comply to Thailand’s Eco Car Phase 2 program. Amongst the prerequisites of the Eco Car Phase 2 program is th
We are here at the 2019 Thailand International Motor Expo. The highlight of the show is of course, the all-new 2020 Honda City. Viewed in metal, the all-new Honda City looks really good, which is a surprise because initial impressions from the press photos weren’t great. Like many of today’s cars, the all-new Honda City’s exterior styling cannot be appreciated in a two dimensional photo. The all-new City’s Civic-esque styling has a lot of edgy, sharp character lines that can only be appreciated
In the recent years, we have welcomed some new three-cylinder engine cars to the world – the Nissan Almera 1.0 turbo, Honda City 1.0 turbo (Thailand), Proton X50, and more excitingly, the Toyota GR Yaris. Even Christian von Koenigsegg has channelled his genius into developing a 600 HP three-cylinder engine. With these developments however, some of us still remain very sceptical of them. We will never forget the underpowered three pots in tiny cars like the Perodua Kancil and Perodua Kelisa. Sure
Having enjoyed success as one of the most popular SUVs in Malaysia, the Proton X70 might just receive an update sometime this year. According to our friends at Funtasticko, a facelifted Proton X70, dubbed the Proton X70 MC1, is in the pipeline. Mass production is expected to begin in the second half of 2021. With the Proton X50 powered by a 1.5-litre TGDI engine and assembled in Malaysia, there is speculation that the 2021 Proton X70 MC1 would use the same engine too. If you're having doubts on
The Geely Vision S1 crossover was spotted in Protons private compound earlier. We have detailed why the Vision S1 crossover will not be launched to the Malaysian market, instead, it is more likely that Proton is having the car to conduct feasibility studies. Feasibility study for what exactly remains a question mark, but the recent launch of the Geely Binyue Pro seems to have shed some light to the situation. What is the 1.4L turbo? The Binyue pro in China now gains a new 1.4-litre turbocharged
Semakin lama, enjin menjadi semakin kecil disebabkan oleh satu ciptaan yang dibina sejak tahun 1905 lagi – iaitu pengecas turbo. Pada mulanya digunakan dalam kapal terbang dengan enjin radial, pengecas turbo ini kemudiannya digunakan di dalam enjin diesel berbilang silinder yang besar, dan akhirnya digunakan pada kereta produksi pada tahun 1960-an. Di Malaysia, pengecas turbo adalah cara yang bagus untuk menjana kuasa lebih tanpa perlu membayar cukai jalan yang lebih mahal untuk enjin berkapasit
Car manufacturers have been downsizing their engines for a while now. BMW started using 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engines as opposed to their well-known naturally aspirated (NA) straight-six engines, Volkswagen began using 1.4-litre turbocharged engine to replace their NA 1.6 and 2.0-litre engines, you get the idea. The reasoning behind this is simply to reduce emissions by producing more efficient cars and at the same time, provide the performance of a larger engine. All sounds fine and
Mazda recently introduced a new 2.5-litre turbo variant for the 2019 Mazda CX-5. On paper, it packs the most firepower of any C-segment SUV but we want to see if this is true in the real world. The Mazda CX-5 2.5 Turbo AWD sold in Malaysia is powered by a 2.5-litre turbocharged direct-injection 4-cylinder petrol engine paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission. The SkyActiv-G turbo engine pushes out 230 PS and 420 Nm of torque. Power is channelled to all four wheels via the permanent all-wheel
( Mazda CX-5 2019 | Gallery) The updated Mazda CX-5 2019 is now available in Malaysia along with the new range-topping 2.5-litre Turbo variant, which was previewed earlier in September. The new ranging topping 228 PS/420 Nm 2.5-litre turbocharged AWD replaces the 2.2-litre turbodiesel AWD variant. The lower range 2WD turbodiesel variant, however, remains on sale. As announced during the preview, Bermaz Motor is offering the Mazda CX-5 2019 in 5 variants, all locally-assembled in Kulim: 2.0L petr
Proton will be launching their next SUV that is rumoured to be called the Proton X50. Whether it will be called as such is another story altogether. The Proton X50 will be based off a Geely product, the Geely Binyue. It’s a 5-seater compact crossover that’s positioned against the Honda HR-V, Mazda CX-3, Peugeot 2008 and Renault Captur. In China, the Binyue is available with two petrol engine options, a 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbo paired strictly to a 6-speed manual and a 1.5-litre 3-cylinder turb
The 2020 Proton X50 may be some months away, but the rumour mill is at it again. This time, our friends over at Funtasticko mentioned that Proton could be introducing a 1.4-litre variant of the X50, as several units have reportedly arrived in Malaysia. Codenamed JLB-4G14T, the 1.4-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine is fitted to the China market Geely Binyue Pro, which outputs 141 PS and 235 Nm. The engine is mated to a 6-speed manual or a wet-type 6-speed dual-clutch automatic. By compariso
Perodua will be introducing turbocharged engines to the Malaysian market in their future models, as highlighted by Perodua President & CEO, Dato' Zainal Abidin Ahmad at the company’s annual business review today. This decision is in line with global market trends of introducing small capacity engines with turbochargers that not only offers better fuel efficiency, lower emissions but also better engine performance compared to a naturally aspirated engine. Perodua referenced Audi (1.2 TFSI), Ford
There’s a mysterious Hyundai MR23T spotted being ferried around in South Korea and reports claim that this is the test mule for Hyundai’s next mid-engine rear-wheel drive mega hatchback! These pictures were uploaded to Korean car website, Bobaedream. From the pictures, we can see a Hyundai Veloster that’s been heavily souped-up with flared wheel arches and aggressive bumpers. What’s interesting is the ‘MR23T’ text plastered on the side and rear of the car. ‘MR’ is often understood as the short f
Mazda is finally giving what consumers have been asking for, a 2020 Mazda 3 turbo. This comes after leaked dealer information which hints at the imminent arrival of a turbocharged Mazda 3. According to Mazda’s dealer registry in the US, there is a new entry for the Mazda 3 which says “MAZDA3 HB PP Turbo”. This suggests that the turbo is only available for the Mazda 3 hatchback. The engine employed here will be the 2.5-litre 4-cylinder SkyActiv-G turbo petrol unit as seen in the Mazda CX-5 Turbo
Nissan India has just launched the 2020 Kicks – now fitted with a new 1.3-litre turbocharged petrol engine. Codenamed HR13DDT, the new turbocharged petrol engine is the same engine found in the Mercedes-Benz A200. The 1.33-litre turbocharged petrol engine was co-developed with Mercedes-Benz and the Renault–Nissan–Mitsubishi Alliance. In the Kicks, the engine is tuned to deliver 158 PS and 254 Nm, hooked up to a 6-speed manual or CVT-type automatic. With the 1.3-litre turbo petrol under the hood,
The upcoming 2020 Mazda 3 Hatchback Turbo will have seriously impressive numbers that might make you consider twice about getting a VW Golf GTi or even the Hyundai i30 N. According to an official video released by Mazda Mexico, the 2.5-litre turbocharged engine will be powering the Mazda 3 Hatchback Turbo, producing 230 PS and a blazing 420 Nm of torque. Those figures match what we had speculated before. It will also be in an all-wheel-drive configuration and it will only be mated to a 6-speed a
Long awaited since last year, the Perodua Ativa is finally launched in Malaysia. This is the most exciting car in 2021 for Malaysia, and the biggest leap forward for Perodua. Powered by a 1.0-litre turbo engine, the Ativa reminds us very much of the Nissan Almera. One an SUV and the other a sedan, both the Perodua Ativa and Nissan Almera are two very different cars. Body type aside, the powertrain for both cars sound exactly the same on paper – 1.0-litre 3-cylinder turbo engine paired to a CVT.
We are here at the 2019 Thailand International Motor Expo. We have just covered the all-new 2020 Honda City but the City is not the only star attraction here. Just a few weeks earlier, the 2020 Nissan Almera made its regional debut in Thailand. Like the 2020 Honda City, the all-new 2020 Nissan Almera is also powered by a 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbocharged engine. However, the Nissan’s three pot engine is quite down on power, making just 100 PS at 5,000 rpm and 152 Nm from 2,400 rpm to 4,000 r
It is official – the upcoming all-new 2020 Nissan Almera for Malaysia will be getting a turbocharged engine, replacing the outgoing model’s naturally-aspirated unit. On the surface, it appears that Edaran Tan Chong Motor, the official distributor of Nissan vehicles, has wisen up and decided to give Malaysians a better powertrain than before. But is that really the case? Well, the actual reason is due to the fact that ETCM does not have any other engine option to offer in the all-new Almera. Let
