Now in getting straight onto the PHEV powertrain first, it pairs a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a four-speed dedicated hybrid transmission (DHT) with an electric motor each axle.

Rather predictably too, after every one of these incidents goes viral, there will undoubtedly be the question being bounced around online of: why don’t we have a lemon law yet? And frankly, it is a rather reasonable question to ask. Because even after years, and many, many…

      Malaysia Needs A Dedicated Automotive Ombudsman Right Now

      Though this dedicated automotive ombudsman really should only be a stopgap measure until a proper lemon law is introduced. For a while now, politicians have been promising to introduce a lemon law in Malaysia. But unfortunately, playing to the stereotype of politicians being all talk and no action, there has been precious little progress on that front to date. And in the meantime, it seems that hardly a week goes by without another social media post from a disgruntled new car owner, complaining about something that has gone horribly wrong with their supposedly brand-new ride. And no, this is not…
