      Honda’s 1st ASEAN Pickup Will Be A Mitsubishi Triton Underneath

      Honda will soon be joining Nissan in rebadging the Triton as a pickup truck of its very own. Things may be getting a little desperate at Honda, as the Japanese automaker has recently announced that it will soon be entering the pickup truck market in Asia. What more too is that it has since been confirmed that this new pickup will be a reskinned Mitsubishi, with the Big H having signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the tri-diamond marque to rebadge its Triton. Hence, yes, while the proposed merger between Honda and Nissan may have fizzled out of existence,…

      Proton e.MAS 7 PHEV Premium Review: Thoroughly Decent

      The Proton e.MAS 7 PHEV just about ticks all the right boxes in a compellingly priced PHEV package.  Given the number of new cars that have been flooding the Malaysian automotive market these days, have to concede that the Proton e.MAS 7 PHEV did not exactly get much attention from this writer when it first arrived. Given however that it was named the winner of DSF’s Vehicle of the Year 2026, it only felt right to give it a (rather belated) full Automacha review. And after living with it for a few days, it is easy to understand why it…

      TuJu Navigation App Faces Issues Just One Day After Its Sudden Rise in Popularity

      Malaysia’s TuJu navigation app ran into technical problems after receiving a massive surge in downloads. The app reportedly attracted more than 700,000 downloads within 24 hours, following Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s recommendation to use it as a local alternative to Wazes. The recommendation came alongside a directive restricting civil servants from using Waze during official duties. However, TuJu’s sudden popularity also exposed several issues with its performance and navigation features. Why Did TuJu Struggle?
