      There Are No More Decent Mid-Range Manual Cars In Malaysia

      There is currently no manual car in Malaysia that is both under RM 100,000 and has traction control.  This here is likely a statement that 99.99% the Malaysian motoring masses are at best indifferent to, but there isn’t actually a decently-equipped car with a manual gearbox available over here that isn’t some high-priced sports car or similar.  And the keyword in the above statement really is ‘decently-equipped’, as many would have no doubt already have in their head the RM 22,000 Axia E as being an affordable manual option. But with a kit list that basically starts and ends at…

      Honda e:N1 e-SUV Lands In Malaysia Costing RM 149,900

      The e:N1 e-SUV incidentally marks the first fully-electric Honda to ever be sold in Malaysia. Honda Malaysia has finally taken its tentative first step into the fully-electric segment with the recent launch of its e:N1 e-SUV, which could be yours over here for RM 149,900. A price which while people might scoff at by being a good chunk more than the RM 100k+ BYD and Protons, is actually not all that far off what the current HR-V is selling for… First shown off locally at the Kuala Lumpur International Mobility Show (KLIMS) late last year, the e:N1 could most basically…

      Upcoming Proton Saga Facelift Spied Testing On Karak Highway

      Hopefully this newly refreshed Proton for the people will still retain the good driving dynamics of its predecessor.  Sunday morning Genting runners might have seen something rather interesting this weekend, as the upcoming Proton Saga facelift was spotted just a few hours ago on the Karak Highway. And what’s more, it was moving at quite a clip in the fast lane, which at least suggests that this newly refreshed iteration would still be as sweet to drive as the current outgoing model.

      The Mazda MX-5 Toji Is Belgium’s Better-Than-Official Special Edition

      This Artisan Red limited run MX-5 features some retro-inspired wheels to match its retro-inspired interior.  While the 35th Anniversary Mazda MX-5 arrived on Malaysian shores at a price tag that made even diehards wince, it’s nevertheless worth remembering how lucky we are to have received it at all. Such is the case in Europe, where fans of Mazda’s pint-sized roadster weren’t even offered the chance to own one. But before you start feeling too sorry for those in the old Continent, it turns out the Belgians had a plan of their own. Enter the MX-5 Toji, a bespoke creation by…
