The phrase “lose a diamond in search of gold” is a metaphor that suggests someone might sacrifice something valuable while pursuing something that seems more appealing at the moment but may not be as valuable in the long run. A good example that explains this situation perfectly is the Hyundai Santa Fe 1.6L Turbo Hybrid […]
Launched last October, the GWM Haval H6 Hybrid has made a strong entry into the Malaysian automotive scene, finding more than 1,000 homes within just two months of its unveiling. With a focus on hybrid efficiency, this mid-sized SUV competes directly with models like the Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid, Honda HR-V Hybrid, and Chery Tiggo […]
We were recently given the opportunity to spend some time with the newly launched MG5 Sedan and here’s our verdict: Overall, it is actually a decent proposition. For the price of RM93,900, you get a product which is on par with its rivals like the Honda City and Toyota Vios. It may be inferior in […]
Let’s face it – Not everybody wants an SUV. Many of us here are still ardent lovers of sedans due to their sleek and sexy looks, engaging drive, and more. Realising that there is still a lot of love and demand for sedans, Proton decided to introduce the S70 earlier this year, and boy is […]
Launched slightly over a year ago, the Proton X90 is the national automaker’s third X series model after the X70 and X50. Available in four variants (Standard, Executive, Premium and Flagship) that are priced at RM123,800, RM130,800, RM144,800, and RM152,800 respectively, we sampled the X90 Premium recently to see how it is and how it […]

Continental Tyre Malaysia recently announced the introduction of the MaxContact MC7 tyre range in Malaysia, which was tailored to fulfill the needs of Asia Pacific (APAC) drivers. Sitting above the UltraContact 7 (UC7) but below the SportContact 7 (SC7) in the product portfolio, the new MC7 is offered in sizes ranging between 16-inches all the […]
Two months after its highly anticipated debut, we finally had the opportunity to spend some hours with the Proton S70, the national carmaker’s latest sedan in an SUV-infested market. Essentially a C-segment sedan that is as big as a Civic and the Altis, the S70 is priced similarly to a B-segment sedan such as the […]
Here to succeed the BR-V seven-seater which didn’t really do that well in Malaysia, the Honda WR-V here is already off to a flying start despite being a newcomer in the compact SUV segment, having found thousands of homes in a matter of months. In case you’re wondering why the BR-V didn’t see big success […]
When Blueshark launched the R Series electric scooter range in Malaysia earlier this year, I didn’t really have high expectations on the Blueshark R1 as it was coming from a brand that I’ve never heard before, and it just didn’t look like the typical scooters we’re used to seeing like the Yamaha Nmax or the […]
