2018 Proton Ertiga 1.4 Executive Plus AT Engine Specs

For most car owners, moving up from your starter hatchback/sedan to accommodate a growing family typically means moving to an MPV or SUV for more space, comfort and practicality. However, besides entry-level models such as the Perodua Alza, most MPVs can become too large, especially if you have tight residential parking or prefer to drive a smaller vehicle daily instead of a large bread van. Not to mention, keep running costs low. Here’s where a used Proton Ertiga aces. A superb exercise of simp

Suzuki is such a huge hit in India that Toyota is banking on a few rebadged models to entice buyers in the subcontinent. However, its latest rebadged Suzuki made its debut in South Africa instead. The Toyota Rumion is the third rebadged Suzuki model currently on sale as a Toyota after the Toyota Glanza/Starlet (Suzuki Baleno) and the Toyota Urban Cruiser (Suzuki Vitara Brezza). The Rumion is based on the Suzuki Ertiga which makes the Japanese giant the third company to rebadge the MPV after Mazd

Even though the word would make most Proton fans cringe, rebadging is pretty much part and parcel of the automotive world. Some were developed to save costs and some were meant to be temporary models while something else is in development. Previously, we took a look at some of the strangest partnerships made between car companies and even dove deep into some of them. This time, we’ll be focusing on 12 of the weirdest rebadges you may not have heard of. Also read: 9 unlikely car collaborations –

Toyota and Suzuki’s partnership will soon hit a high gear, as recent reports are saying that the Indian-market Suzuki Ertiga could be the next model to be rebadged by Toyota. Yes, the Suzuki Ertiga could be wearing a Toyota emblem soon. Recall that the first-generation Suzuki Ertiga was rebadged as the Proton Ertiga during Proton and Suzuki’s short-lived partnership. The Toyota-badged Suzuki Ertiga, similar to other current Suzuki and Toyota rebadged models, could gain a revised front grille, as

The Proton Ertiga is no more as Proton has dropped the model from its line-up. The last Proton Ertiga rolled off Proton’s Tanjung Malim plant in May, with saw only 31 units assembled, including 4 units with manual transmission. These 31 units languished for a few more months at dealers, but the last unit should have been sold by the time you read this. It was a quiet and somewhat dismal end to Proton’s much-hyped but short-lived partnership with Suzuki. In total, Proton assembled just 148 units

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

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

BYD will be launching a new brand in Malaysia by Q1 2025, confirmed Eagle Zhao, Managing Director of BYD Malaysia, during the launch of the BYD Seal Dynamic variant this morning. Zhao later clarified that the new brand will be Denza. Apart from its namesake BYD-badged cars, BYD’s portfolio of brands include Denza, Yangwang, and Formula Bao. 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.

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
