Motul Launches New GP Travel Kits Inspired By MotoGP Technology

Motul has launched new Motul GP Travel Kits, a compact range of motorcycle care essentials developed from the company’s long-standing motorsport and MotoGP involvement. Motorcycle ownership has always come with a certain ritual. For some riders, it is the early morning wipe-down before a weekend ride. For others, it is the familiar smell of chain lubricant in the garage after a long journey home. Riding may be emotional, but maintenance remains practical, and ...

Tesla Model Y L Review

Family cars were a simple thing in the past. If you had more than two children, elderly parents, or a habit of transporting half the neighbourhood, you bought an MPV and accepted your fate. Then SUVs arrived, and suddenly everyone wanted height, presence and the illusion of adventure, even if the most challenging terrain was the basement carpark at Marina Bay Sands. Tesla, for all its dominance in Singapore, has never properly ...

Audi A6 Review

Audi has spent the last few years trying to make its model naming system sound clever, which is usually the first sign that things are about to get confusing. The plan was simple enough: even numbers for electric cars, odd numbers for combustion-engined ones.

Suzuki Fronx Review

The Suzuki Fronx may be slightly dated by today’s standards, but it offers an easy, no frills driving experience that is refreshingly simple in today’s tech-laden market. Apparently, Fronx is short for “Frontier crossover”. Silly name aside, the Fronx is quite interesting. Because beneath the odd badge is a compact SUV that sits at an interesting crossroads for Suzuki. It is smaller than the Vitara, effectively stepping into the gap left by ...

Volvo ES90 Review

Something is reassuring about a big Volvo. Not in the way a supercar reassures you with speed, or a luxury SUV reassures you with sheer presence, but in a more understated, almost philosophical way. It feels like a machine designed by people who have thought deeply about what a car should do for you, rather than how loudly it should announce itself. The Volvo ES90 is exactly that sort of car. At just ...
