2020 Land Rover Discovery Sport R-Dynamic High Spec Engine Specs

British cars don’t exactly come with a stellar reputation for reliability and it’s mostly at the expense of Land Rover. As the joke goes, they say 90 % of all Land Rovers manufactured are still on the road. The other 10% have actually reached their destination. It wasn’t all fun and games on 11 October 2023 though as a Land Rover caught fire at the Luton airport carpark, sparking a raging inferno that engulfed the entire building, causing it to collapse. The collapse destroyed up to 1,500 cars a

Previously, we’ve talked about why premium brands like Volvo and BMW use 3-cylinder engines in their cars.

The 1.5-litre turbocharged 3-cylinder engine is the smallest in the Ingenium range, it sends 200 PS/280 Nm to the front wheels through a new 8-speed automatic transmission. Similar to Volvo’s T8 system, the electric motor mounted on the rear axle powers

Alongside the new BYD Seal Dynamic, Sime Darby Beyond Auto also rolled out the 2024 BYD Atto 3 Extended Range, taking over the spot of the sole Standard Range variant, and all for the same RM149,800 price tag. So, what’s “enhanced” about this new Atto 3? Let’s break it down. First off, you’re getting a bump in range: 480 km NEDC compared to the previous 410 km, thanks to a larger 60.48 kWh battery (up from 49.92 kWh). You’ll still get that 7 kW single-phase AC charging, while DC charging is rate

At the ongoing Sime Darby Automania 2024 at Bukit Jalil National Stadium, Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors, the exclusive local distributor of Hyundai vehicles publicly previewed the Hyundai Ioniq 5 N performance battery electric vehicle (BEV) for the first time in Malaysia.

Unlike the unit previewed at the Singapore Motor Show earlier this year, the Ioniq 5 N showcased in Malaysia is a rig

The entry-variant BYD Seal, the Dynamic Standard Range, has been launched in Malaysia, priced at RM 163,800. Fully imported (CBU) from China, the new variant gives a more wallet-friendly option, but don’t go thinking “entry-level” means it skimps on the good stuff. Sure, it’s the least powerful of the bunch, but the Dynamic Standard Range still packs a decent punch. Under the bonnet – or rather, the rear axle – it’s got the same 204 PS motor you’ll find in the BYD Atto 3 Extended Range and Dolph

Of the three, only Denza offers right-hand drive models. While Zhao didn't mention which Denza model will be launched in Malaysia, it's not a difficult guess

When it comes to making a Porsche that's truly one's own, then few do it better than the manufacturer's own Sonderwunsch. Though in English it translates to a rather undramatic 'Special Requests', they're the people responsible for hyper-personalised vehicles; whether its one-offs, a series of racecar homages, or even bringing a movie character to life. For the newly-launched 2025 Porsche Taycan, this is the result of a very specific vision – the Taycan Turbo S Celestial Jade. Developed together

The new 2024 Toyota Camry (XV80) was recently launched in Singapore, making it the first market in the ASEAN region to receive the snazzy D-Segment sedan. If you thought cars were expensive in Malaysia, note the sole Elegance Hybrid (HEV) variant priced at SGD 246,888 (~RM 821k) inclusive of COE, which is roughly what you would pay for a BMW M4 in Malaysia.

The 2024 Mercedes-Benz E-Class has so much tech stuffed into it, you’d think it was preparing for a mission to Mars. But before you go all “back in my day” on it, let’s be real – this is the kind of car that makes your daily commute feel more like a spa day than a slog through rush-hour purgatory. And that’s no bad thing. Still not convinced? Well, let Greg show you the light. He’s taken the latest generation for a spin through Austria, where the roads are scenic, the skies are blue, and the tec
