July 2023 is another good month for Proton as it saw 13,326 units sold domestically and internationally, a 16.1% improvement over the same month in 2022 (11,477 units). Cumulatively, Proton sold 90,647 units in 2023 so far which is also the earliest P1 has exceeded the 90k-unit barrier since 2012.

The Toyota Corolla Cross is currently available in three variants, the entry 1.8E starts from RM 130,400, the mid-range 1.8G stats from RM 137,400, while the range topping Hybrid starts from RM 142,000.

But did you know that Geely has 5 other SUVs on sale as well? To make it clearer, Geely has separated their vehicle range to the Yue/Rui series (Yue for SUVs/ Rui for sedans), Emgrand series, and the Vision series. The Yue/Rui series is m

The Toyota Corolla Cross is currently on sale in Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines and Vietnam. The model is expected to be launched in Malaysia very soon, but don’t call it a South East Asia-only model yet. Sources in Japan tell us that the Toyota Corolla Cross will be launched in Japan in the third quarter of 2021, possibly imported from Thailand - still the world's only source of Corolla Cross for now (local assembly in Malaysia to start later). Seeing that hybrid is a must for commercial succ

The Geely Binyue Pro has just gone on sale in China and besides the minor cosmetic changes, the Chinese carmaker also threw in a major surprise – a new 1.4-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder petrol engine with 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. There are now 2 petrol engine options of the Binyue Pro – the 1.5-litre turbocharged 3-cylinder and a new 1.4-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder. The 3-cylinder unit is something we’re quite familiar with, it’s a unit co-developed with Volvo and it packs 177 PS and
