As if reception for the Toyota GR Supra wasn’t controversial enough, the next-generation Toyota Supra could be an electric vehicle (EV), according to rumours from Japanese media. Japan’s BestCarWeb reported that while details are scarce, sources told the Japanese media that the next-generation Toyota Supra - expected to arrive in 2025 - will continue to be rear-wheel drive and its design will be reminiscent of a mid-engine sports car.

When Geely took over 49.9 percent of Proton, it stated a bold promise of turning around the ailing Malaysian national car maker into the third biggest car brand in Southeast Asia’s ASEAN trade bloc – which comprises of 10 member countries. Five years into the 10-year plan, Proton finished 2022 with 141,432 cars sold, giving it a 19.6 percent market share in Malaysia.

Hot on the heels of the 2021 Toyota Vios facelift is this - the Vios GR Sport. Heavily touted to be what's launching in Malaysia tonight, here's your first look at it courtesy of this leaked photo found on Facebook. It's a real, printed poster so the car is not something we made up: that's a real Vios wearing a GR Sport badge, folks. First impressions are it looks great - the squared-off front bumper, bespoke bodykit and wheel combo makes it look a bit like the 2021 Toyota GR Yaris. Much of the

The Nissan Z Proto has won itself many fans and the change in narrative is nice for a company that has been dragged through the mud by the legal tussle involving ex-CEO Carlos Ghosn. As much as we love the Nissan Z Proto, it is important to remember that the car has yet to enter production but keep your fingers crossed because Nissan has repeatedly mentioned that it is committed to producing the Z Proto. However what many forgot is that the new Nissan Z won’t be launched in Europe, or even the U
