Compared to other segments, the C-segment sedan market in Thailand is quite small with only 3 models vying for the top every month. For the first time ever in May 2022, there is a new champion for the month – the Toyota Corolla Altis. During the first 4 months of 2022, this segment is dominated by the Honda Civic but in May, the Corolla Altis finally took away the title from the FE having sold 528 units. It’s only 7 units more than Civic but a winner is still a winner after all. Nevertheless, it

Malaysians would recognise the Honda Insight as Honda’s copy rival to the Toyota Prius. Both models were introduced here at a time when hybrid cars received favourable tax incentives but that never lasted, sadly. Both the Toyota Prius and Honda Insight continued being sold overseas with their respective new generations missing the boat to Malaysia.

Previously, we reported that 3 suspects were able to successfully steal a Honda Civic 1.8S police patrol vehicle (MPV) from the Seberang Perai Utara district HQ. Now Sinar Harian has reported more details that not only are all 3 suspects tested positive for drugs but it might also turn into a kidnapping case. As you know, on Saturday 2 brothers, aged 28 and 32, posed as policemen from the information technology resources unit to gain access to the Civic MPV under the pretext of inspecting the da

A global pandemic and signs of an impending economic depression are already slamming the automotive industry five ways to Thursday. Car sales are down, people are losing their jobs, and businesses are going bankrupt. We may be a meal away from financial Armageddon, which for some means it is a good time as any to buy an old Honda Civic Type R for RM300,000. Wait, what? That isn’t a lone case. More recently somebody bought a Mugen Civic Type R for half a million Ringgit. If that wasn’t brave enou

We often overlooked how much progress today’s automotive technology have made. It wasn’t very long ago that any car with over 100 PS of power and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in under 10 seconds is considered impressive. The original hot hatch, the Volkswagen Golf GTI made headlines with its 110 PS and a 0-100 km/h time of 9.6 seconds. Today’s nondescript family cars offer performance that thirty years ago, was the domain of sports cars, even if the specifications don’t suggest anything remotely
