It may be a minor technological update, but new hardware in the XPeng X9 Pro gives the car a significant bump in software usability. It seems now that every modern carmaker now talks about software, artificial intelligence and “ecosystems” with the enthusiasm of people who have just discovered Silicon Valley. Cars are essentially moving computers now, and you can’t go anywhere without some virtual assistant analysing your every move. None is more ...

The Ferrari Amalfi may be the least powerful and least expensive Ferrari you can buy today, but it could also be one of the easiest to genuinely enjoy. It's weird to call any Ferrari an entry-level model. Entry-level suggests sensible shoes, base-spec infotainment and perhaps a monthly instalment plan you can discuss without first contacting your private banker. The Ferrari Amalfi, meanwhile, comes with 631bhp, a twin-turbocharged V8 and a price ...

The Denza B5 is one of those cars that makes you reconsider what constitutes luxury, while simultaneously being knee-deep in gravel and mud. Back then, a proper luxury off-roader had to come from somewhere very specific. If you wanted toughness, you looked to a Land Cruiser. If you wanted elegance, perhaps a Lexus. And if you wanted both, you generally prepared yourself for a rather painful conversation with your bank manager. ...

The Deepal S05 does not feel like a newcomer demanding your attention, but rather a mature product that simply gets on with the job. It would be amusing to describe Changan as one of China’s older carmakers, because in the context of the current automotive gold rush, “old” can mean a company that existed before TikTok. Still, Changan has proper history. It has been building vehicles for roughly 45 years; beginning with ...

Zeekr is marking its second anniversary here with a six-month showcase at Jewel Changi Airport, running from 1 August 2026 to 31 January 2027.

This time, the showcase will feature rotating vehicle displays, interactive activities and anniversary rewards as Zeekr looks back on its first two years. Zeekr arrived in Singapore at a ...

The updated Lotus Eletre and Emeya arrive in Singapore with more equipment fitted as standard and lower starting prices. Coming shortly after the Singapore showcase of the Evija hypercar, the refreshed range also serves to underline a broader point from Lotus: the engineering lessons behind its 2,000hp-plus halo car are increasingly filtering down into models intended to be driven every day. The Eletre and Emeya were developed by the same team responsible ...

Positioned above the standard Vantage, the new S becomes the most focused version of the current model to date. It follows a familiar Aston Martin formula: take an already potent sports car, sharpen its responses and add just enough visual distinction to tell those ...

Style over space? That's what the people yearn for, and why the Mercedes-Benz GLC200 Coupe has had great success here. SUVs used to be purely functional. You bought one because you needed the space, and the commanding driving position was a welcome bonus. While the boxy silhouette was simply part of the package, nobody really cared how stylish an SUV looked. Fast forward to today, and things have changed rather dramatically. SUVs ...
