Since 2009, all new Toyota hybrid models launched after the third generation Toyota Prius wear the blue tinted Toyota logo. The blue outlines on the Toyota emblem is the most obvious differentiator for hybrid variants of Toyota models. That and the trio of wave-pattern Hybrid logos on the boot lid and front fenders (fitted since second generation Prius, 2003) is visual identifiers of Toyota hybrid models. At yesterday’s launch of the 2023 Toyota Innova Zenix in Indonesia however, the show car wa

Unlike most global markets, the JDM version of the Toyota Corolla Cross sports a unique and different design and needless to say, it looks rather plain than the one sold globally.

Essentially, the Sportback is the stylish brother of the current Q3. It gets a snazzy new visual package all-around and of course, had its roof lopped off for that coupe look.

The godfather of hot hatchbacks is now in its eighth generation, known as the Golf GTI Mark 8 (Mk8). It retains the same formula as before, with a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine powering the front wheels. How fast is the 2020 Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk8? The EA888 engine, now in its fourth generation, produces 245 PS/370 Nm and will almost certainly be paired to the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DSG) when it arrives in Malaysia. While official figures have yet to be disclosed, the

The all-new fifth-generation 2019 Subaru Forester was launched to the Malaysian market in August 2019.
