Business owners looking for cleaner and greener choices to electrify their fleet now have two new options, with the launch of the KGM Musso EV and Qingling EQ2 electric trucks in Singapore.

Both were launched at ChargedUp, an electric vehicle (EV) conference held at the Singapore Management University (SMU) from 6 to 9 November.

The KGM Musso EV is a new pickup truck from a familiar carmaker that has been rebranded. KGM, or KG Mobility, is the new incarnation of Ssangyong, following its takeover by the Korean conglomerate KG Group in 2022. The renaming was done in order to make a clean break from the negative brand image that has been associated with Ssangyong through the years.

The Musso EV features an electric motor that produces 152kW/205bhp and 339Nm of torque, offering plenty of grunt for load lugging work. The motor is powered by an 80.6kWh lithium-ion phosphate battery that gives the truck a range of up to 420km on a full charge. 

The battery is also backed by a class-leading 10 year/1 million km (whichever comes first) warranty, offering business owners long-term peace of mind.

In terms of payload, the Musso EV is capable of carrying up to 930kg in its bed, and it also comes with handy features like tie-down points, an integrated rear deck LED light for better visibility and adjustable reclining rear seats with 60/40 split folding.

The interior comes with car-like features, such as a 12.3-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a wireless smartphone charger, and numerous USB-C charge ports. 

It also has advanced driver assistance systems like Intelligent Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist and Lane Departure Warning, for maximum safety on the roads.

The Qingling EQ2 meanwhile is a heavy duty electric truck that can be driven by Class 3/3A license holders. It also does not need a Vehicle Parking Certificate (VPC), which is a requirement for heavy vehicles to park at designated parking spaces in Singapore at night.

The EQ2’s electric motor produces 167kW/224bhp and 420Nm of torque, and the large 100.46kWh battery gives it a range of up to 515km. The battery can also be charged at speeds of up to 120kW, minimising downtime for drivers.

Qingling says that the EQ2 can be customised for various business needs, and you can have the rear configured with an open wooden or metal deck bed, an enclosed cargo box, or a refrigerated box for those utilising the truck for food-related transport operations.

As a heavy electric commercial vehicle, the EQ2 qualifies for a $40,000 incentive under the Heavy Vehicle Zero Emission Scheme (HVZES), and up to $30,000 in rebates as part of the Electric Heavy Vehicle Charger Grant (EHVCG) for the first 500 applicants. 

Both incentives will apply to electric trucks registered from 1 January 2026, and the total amount of $70,000 represents a significant amount of cost savings for business owners.

The KGM Musso EV is retailing for $189,888 with COE, while pricing for the Qingling EQ2 starts at $155,888 with COE. 

Qingling Singapore is the official distributor for the Qingling brand here, and they have partnered with Motorway for their retail operations. KGM meanwhile is represented by Motorway, in a continuation of their distributorship of Ssangyong which they have held since 2007.

On paper, the 007 dispatches 0–100km/h in 3.9 seconds, has up to 650km of range, and includes a WANOS Premium 19-speaker setup. Priced from S$191,888 with COE, it’s competitively priced for the Singaporean EV sedan market.

The Dongfeng 007 is a symbol of luxury, boldness, intelligence, and future mobility. Jessica embodies those same qualities, and her presence helped us tell that story in a truly unforgettable way.”

Soh Ming, Founder and Managing Director of Volt Auto

Jessica Jung made an appearance to reveal the car, then shifted gears for a more intimate sit-down later that afternoon at Volt Auto’s Tai Seng showroom, fielding questions about design, innovation and her own return to Singapore.

“I’m honoured to be part of this exciting launch. I was totally impressed by the design. I really hope people in Singapore are inspired to try new things; don’t be afraid to open new doors.”

Jessica Jung, American-Korean singer-songwriter and actress

On launch day, Volt Auto also supported wellness platform Happie SG, sponsoring a Dongfeng Box as the Grand Prize for its third-anniversary showcase at Jewel Changi Airport, co-presented with Zoe Tay.

The company has set its sights on Malaysia in 2026, with plans to distribute Dongfeng models and even establish a knock-down assembly plant.

LEGOLAND® Malaysia Resort has officially opened Asia’s first LEGO® Ferrari Build & Race attraction.

It is a full-fledged, purpose-built attraction in the IMAGINATION Zone, designed to let children (and the parents who pretend they’re “just helping”) build, test, race, and even virtually compete in their very own LEGO Ferrari.

And just so nobody forgets the scale of it all, the centrepiece is the world’s first life-sized LEGO® Ferrari F50, constructed from a staggering 421,652 LEGO elements, weighing 1,603kg and taking 1,306 hours to complete.

“This experience captures the essence of both LEGO and Ferrari; creativity, innovation, and excitement. All brought to life in a way families can enjoy together,” said Cs Lim, Vice-President of LEGOLAND Malaysia Resort. “We’re proud to bring this world-class attraction to Malaysia, and to be the first in Asia to do so.”

Five Zones, One Red-Blooded Idea

The LEGO Ferrari Build & Race is laid out like a race weekend.

1. Ferrari Garage
This is where the emotions start. Guests step into a mini Ferrari world, complete with memorabilia, nuggets of racing history and, of course, that show-stopping life-sized LEGO® Ferrari F50. For the kids, it’s magic. For the grown-ups, it is nostalgia brought to life in bricks.

2. Build Zone
Here’s where imagination takes the wheel. Visitors get to design and assemble their very own LEGO Ferrari race car from scratch. No two cars will ever look the same because no two builders ever think alike.

3. Test Zone
What is a racecar without data? The attraction lets you send your creation over three different tracks, each created to challenge different aspects of the car. Too tall? Too heavy? Too many spoilers? You will find out very quickly.

4. Virtual Race Zone
Guests can scan their physical LEGO car and take it to the digital track, racing on a virtual version of Ferrari’s famed Fiorano circuit in Italy. You can customise, compete and even celebrate on the winners’ podium.

5. DUPLO® Build Area
Because the under-fives must never feel left out, there is a safe, soft-brick corner for future engineers. Start them young, as they say.

“Ferrari has always stood for performance, passion and excellence. The LEGO Ferrari Build & Race attraction is a fun, interactive way to share that spirit with new generations,” added Benoit Montaigne, Global Creative Manager Experience at Ferrari.

A Tourism Win for Johor

The launch was officiated by Johor Menteri Besar, YAB Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi. It strengthens LEGOLAND Malaysia’s position as Southeast Asia’s ultimate family destination and comes at an excellent time, right ahead of Visit Johor Year 2026 and Visit Malaysia Year 2026.

With over 420,000 bricks, a hero car unlike anything else in the region, and an experience that blends hands-on building with digital play, the attraction is well placed to become a must-visit for school holidays, short weekend trips from Singapore, and frankly, anyone who has ever secretly wanted to build a Ferrari and race it.

So, start your engines and your imagination. Asia’s first LEGO® Ferrari Build & Race is open, loud, and wonderfully red.

Audi has officially launched the latest generation A6 executive sedan in Singapore, and for the first time, the range is complemented by the electric A6 e-tron and S6 e-tron models.

Two versions of the standard petrol-powered A6 will be offered here, with the base model featuring a 2.0-litre inline-four engine that produces 201hp and 340Nm of torque. The more powerful A6 meanwhile, will have a 3.0-litre V6 engine that produces 362hp and 550Nm of torque, and comes with mild hybrid technology.

The new A6 features a sleek and aerodynamic design that mimics that of similar recent Audi models like the A5 Sedan. The large single-frame grille and thin LED headlights give the car an imposing stance, while at the rear, the Matrix LED taillights feature a distinctive signature that transforms into triangular shapes when the hazard lights are activated.

Both A6 variants come with progressive steering as standard, with the more powerful A6 3.0 also adding all-wheel steering and Quattro all-wheel-drive with a sports differential. There is also an option to spec adaptive air suspension for the A6 3.0, which lowers the car by 20mm in standard driving modes, and a further 10mm in Dynamic mode.

Inside, the new A6 has been designed to offer a quiet and refined experience, with its advanced sound insulation and acoustic glazing that has been improved by up to 30 per cent over its predecessor. 

Other highlights include a 16-speaker Bang & Olufsen 3D Premium sound system, four-zone deluxe automatic air conditioning, power latching function for doors, a customisable head-up display with 85 per cent larger projection, and a full suite of driver assistance systems.

The A6 e-tron, meanwhile, is a landmark car for Audi, being built on the brand’s Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture, and is the first PPE car with a flat floor concept that comes with rear-wheel-drive.

Just one drivetrain option is available for the A6 e-tron for now, with a single electric motor that produces 210kW/282hp and 450Nm of torque, although power can be boosted up to 240kW/322hp when launch control is activated. The 83kWh battery gives the A6 e-tron a range of 563km when fully charged.

The A6 e-tron looks visually different from the petrol A6 thanks to its sleek Sportback body shape, and design highlights include the optional customisable OLED taillights, as well as the illuminated Audi four rings logo.

The interior of the A6 e-tron features the new Audi Digital Stage panoramic curved display, first seen on the Audi Q6 e-tron, along with the MMI display screen for the front passenger that’s available as standard.

Along with the new A6 and A6 e-tron, Audi also unveiled the high-performance S6 e-tron, which comes with dual-motors and all-wheel-drive, for a total output of 370kW/496hp and 785Nm of torque, with launch control boosting that power output to 405kW/543hp.

With its larger 100kWh battery, the S6 e-tron also offers an impressive range of up to 646km when fully charged.

Pricing starts at $372,999 with COE for the A6 2.0 Advanced, while there is also a special Edition 1 launch special that is going for $392,999 with COE. The A6 3.0 quattro S Line meanwhile is retailing for $428,999 with COE.

For the A6 e-tron, the standard Advanced model is going for $375,999 with COE, while the Edition 1 model is priced at $395,999 with COE. The S6 e-tron meanwhile, will set you back $462,999 with COE.

The glut of Chinese car brands flooding into Singapore continues with the introduction of Leapmotor, which was officially launched on 29 October at an event held at the Mandai Rainforest Resort.

Unlike many of the other Chinese brands though, Leapmotor stands out by being part of an international automotive group, in this case, Stellantis. Appropriately enough, Leapmotor’s local distributor, Cycle & Carriage, also carries two other Stellantis brands in Singapore, in the form of Peugeot and Citroen.

“Our long partnership with Stellantis is built on a shared commitment to innovation, quality and customer satisfaction. With Citroën, Peugeot and now Leapmotor under one roof, Cycle & Carriage is well-positioned to offer customers even greater choice and value,” said Wilfrid Foo, Managing Director, Cycle & Carriage Singapore.

Leapmotor’s first model to be offered here is the C10, a D-segment electric SUV that is eligible for a Cat A COE, thanks to its power output of 100kW/134hp.

The C10’s electric motor also produces 320Nm of torque, enabling it to go from 0-100km/h in 10.7 seconds. The 69.9kWh battery gives the car a claimed WLTP combined driving range of 420km.

Despite its status as a Cat A-eligible electric SUV contender, the Leapmotor C10 is a pretty sizeable car, measuring in at 4,739mm long and 1,680mm tall, with a wheelbase of 2,825mm. This makes it significantly larger than many of its other Chinese electric SUV rivals, and is comparable with a Tesla Model Y in its dimensions.

The design of the C10 is fairly clean cut and modern, with the slim headlights and taillight bar giving it a fairly minimalist look that is simple and unfussy.

The interior also takes a similar approach, with the large 14.6-inch central touchscreen taking pride of place on the dashboard, and complemented by the 10.25-inch digital instrument panel.

The C10 does come with a whole host of practical features, such as the front seats that can recline fully flat to create a bed-like resting space. Leapmotor also says that the C10 comes with 26 different storage compartments throughout the interior, including four cupholders and four bottle holders in each door. 

There is also a 32-litre frunk to complement the generous 435-litre boot for even more storage space.

Standard equipment on the C10 include a large panoramic sunroof, interior ambient lighting, a 12-speaker audio system, and seats made from a sustainable fabric material called OEKO-Tex Standard 100, which offers a soft, baby-safe surface that’s both durable and easy to clean.

The C10 also comes with Leap Pilot, an advanced driver-assistance system offering 16 active safety features, all supported by 12 high-precision sensors.

Given its Cat A status, the Leapmotor is unsurprisingly priced very competitively, at $187,999 with COE. With its combination of generous space and impressive features, the Leapmotor C10 looks set to make a strong challenge in the crowded electric SUV space here in Singapore.

GAC Singapore has officially opened its second showroom here, a move which helps mark the brand’s expansion and commitment to shaping the future of sustainable mobility in Singapore.

The new showroom is situated at the Punggol Digital District, which is Singapore’s first smart and sustainable business district, and GAC says that the location is a demonstration of GAC’s vision to be at the intersection of technology and mobility, where innovation meets sustainability.

“This new showroom is a reflection of GAC’s vision for intelligent mobility, where technology, design, and sustainability come together to create a smarter driving experience,” said Ernest Tan, Deputy CEO of VINCAR Group, the authorised distributor for GAC Singapore.

The opening of GAC’s new Punggol showroom strengthens the brand’s local presence, following the successful introduction of several new models over the past year, such as the GAC AION V and GAC HYPTEC HT.

The showroom’s Punggol location will give Singaporeans living in the northeastern part of the island a more convenient location to experience GAC’s growing lineup of electric vehicles. It will also serve as a hub for innovation and customer engagement, and bring GAC closer to a new generation of forward-thinking, environmentally conscious drivers.

“VINCAR Group has always been at the forefront of bringing global automotive innovation to Singapore,” added Mr Ernest Tan. “This milestone marks another stride in our mission to make electric mobility accessible, exciting, and meaningful to every driver.”

To celebrate the official opening of the showroom, GAC Singapore will have an exclusive Grand Opening event, which will feature test drives, EV tech showcases, and launch-day offers.

This is Maybach at full crescendo (MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure from grille to garnish), combining meticulous craft with tech that wouldn’t be out of place in a symphony hall.

All of the hallmarks are there: creamy 6.0-litre V12 biturbo with 612 hp, 4MATIC all-wheel drive, AIRMATIC and E-ACTIVE BODY CONTROL to iron out the world beneath you, and cabin trickery like OLED-equipped MBUX, active ambient lighting, and a Burmester High-End 4D system that turns Chopin into a full-body experience.

A Singapore Story, Etched in Light

What sets this car apart is the storytelling. Centre-stage on the dash is a laser-engraved portrait of Singapore’s skyline set into MANUFAKTUR black piano lacquer.

The artwork, created with Singaporean multidisciplinary artist Andre Wee, captures our city’s precision and pulse in a mesh of fine lines.

The C-pillar wears subtle “BEYOND 60” lettering; the illuminated door sills nod as you step in; 21-inch Maybach multi-spoke forged wheels do the heavy visual lifting without breaking a sweat.

Where Colour Meets Craft

The two-tone paintwork is a masterclass in character: High-Tech Silver on top for composure; MANUFAKTUR Exclusive Carneol Red metallic below for heartbeat and heat. It reads like Singapore in paint (ambition and refinement, progress and elegance), one continuous surface of intent.

Inside, Crystal White and Bengal Red Nappa leather exude cool serenity framed by quiet strength. The roof liner (diamond-stitched, illuminated, and finished in white) casts a gentle glow.

The tactility is obsessive in that very Maybach way: high-pile black floor mats with crystal-white borders and red topstitching; head-restraint cushions and matching pillows in edition colours; and a “1 OF 1” badge on the centre console that says what everyone is already thinking.

Built on the Best, Aimed at Tomorrow

Underneath the finery is the S 680 at its most considered: long-wheelbase, calm, chauffeur-friendly ride, and the sort of isolation that turns Orchard Road traffic into a screensaver.

The point isn’t acceleration figures; it’s the way the car shrinks the city and stretches time. And because it’s a Maybach, the theatre is matched by restraint. You arrive unruffled, not announced.

That philosophy carries through to MANUFAKTUR Made to Measure. The brief here was not opulence for opulence’s sake, but personalisation as purpose.

“This one-of-one creation symbolises how we see the future of luxury; deeply personal, emotionally resonant and shaped around the individual. Luxury is most meaningful when it becomes a reflection of identity, purpose and vision.”

Marcel Luis Mustelier Perez, Mercedes-Benz Singapore’s President & CEO

Walk into 11 Leng Kee Road and you’ll meet IM Motors for the first time in Singapore. The débutants, the IM5 saloon and IM6 SUV, both arrive with IM’s signature “digital chassis” and an advanced intelligent cockpit, wrapped around a robust battery safety architecture.

MG, meanwhile, plays the crowd-pleaser with a carefully curated playlist: the all-new MG S5 SUV, the theatrical, all-electric Cyberster roadster, and the MG4.

“For four decades, we have been defined by our commitment to quality and passion. The strategic choices of bringing these marques into Singapore ensure that Eurokars Group remains at the forefront of Singapore’s sustainable and technologically advanced mobility future.”

Ms Charmain Kwee, Group Executive Director

If you live in the East and dread cross-island pilgrimages, MG is also spinning up a pop-up at its service centre in Ubi, spotlighting the MG4 and MG S5.

Under the gloss sits strategy. Eurokars is adding new distributorships (IM Motors, Sunwin, Hongqi) and hard-pivoting into electrification. MG’s record sales in 2025 is proof that the market will follow when the product and the retail moment make sense.

IM Motors itself is also a statement of intent; a next-gen EV marque that splices advanced automotive engineering with digital-native thinking.

“It is where we bring the best of both worlds under one roof: MG’s proven quality and century-long heritage, alongside the cutting-edge intelligence of IM Motors’ EVs.

Mr Raymond Ng, Managing Director of Eurokars EV

If you’re curious to check out IM Motors for yourself, the doors at 11 Leng Kee Road are now open.

Where to find it
Eurokars EV Flagship Showroom: 11 Leng Kee Road, Singapore 159091

It is Maybach’s first-ever two-seater, the most athletic expression of the sub-brand yet.

Imagine the iconic SL silhouette, then drape it in the sort of detailing that makes valets pause mid-handbrake pull. The Monogram Series pairs the easy, open-air charm of a roadster with Maybach’s calling cards: hand-finished materials, a cocooning cabin, and luxury design flourishes.

Two curated moods: Red Ambience or White Ambience

Buyers get two ready-made ensembles. “White Ambience” reinterprets Maybach’s classic two-tone with obsidian black metallic up top and MANUFAKTUR opalite white magno below.

“Red Ambience” pairs the same black with MANUFAKTUR garnet red metallic; a new tinted clearcoat gives the colour real depth, like a claret catching the light. Inside, crystal-white, sustainably tanned MANUFAKTUR Exclusive Nappa leather swathes almost everything, balancing airiness with that signature Maybach “cocoon”.

If your tastes run bespoke, there are more than 50 MANUFAKTUR paints from Côte d’Azur Blue to revived hues from the archives, so you can match your SL to your cufflinks, your townhouse, or your mood.

The face, and a bonnet that’s basically ink-jet couture

Up front sits a brand-specific chrome grille with fine vertical slats, shaped in a sportier A-contour that visually lowers the nose. The grille and Maybach script are illuminated, while a rose-gold accent in the headlights adds a jewellery-like glint.

The windscreen frame and front apron keep the chrome theme going without tipping into kitsch. Out back, taillights with Maybach logos, a dedicated diffuser, and horizontal-bar tailpipes deliver quiet swagger; 21-inch forged wheels (five-hole or multi-spoke) and an acoustic-comfort soft top with a subtle woven Maybach pattern seal the look.

An obsidian-black bonnet is available with an integrated Maybach monogram rendered by PixelPaint. A print head with over 1,000 individually controlled nozzles lays down microscopic drops of paint (20–50 microns) with no overspray, layered between multiple hand-sanded clear coats to create depth you can fall into. It’s intricate, labour-intensive, and genuinely innovative.

Ride like a Maybach, steer like an SL

The SL 680 Monogram Series uses semi-active hydraulic roll stabilisation in place of conventional anti-roll bars, quelling body movements in fractions of a second. Paired with rear-axle steering, Maybach-specific damper tuning, and softer springs, the car threads the needle between glide and grip.

Acoustic insulation, recyclable fibreglass muffler inlays, and an exhaust tuned for sonorous restraint keep the cabin hush intact, even with the roof stowed.

A 4.0-litre biturbo V8 (430 kW/585 hp, 800 Nm) mated to a 9G-TRONIC, fully variable 4MATIC+ all-wheel drive, and an e-diff at the rear. It does 0–100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and runs on to 260 km/h.

Drive modes adjust the powertrain’s demeanour from silk-gloved to sprightly, with softened throttle mapping in the calmer settings.

“With the new Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series, we now bring a dynamic, open-air expression of Maybach luxury tailored for the most discerning customers.”

Marcel Luis Mustelier Perez, President & CEO, Mercedes-Benz Singapore

Spread over 14 hectares beside Changi Airport, the first regional PEC is set around a two-kilometre handling circuit, surrounded by dynamic playgrounds that speak fluent petrolhead: drift circle, drift handling track, and a rotating cast of treasures from the Porsche Museum.

And, for the first time anywhere, a Porsche Experience Centre will incorporate a fully integrated, high-capacity Aftersales facility, so the same place that teaches you finesse at the limit can also sort your next service.

A significant EV fleet and eco-conscious infrastructure will be core to the plan, aligning with the Singapore Green Plan 2030.

“The groundbreaking of the Porsche Experience Centre Singapore is not only a proud moment for the entire team at Porsche Asia Pacific, but marks an important milestone for our brand globally, and is a signal of our long-term commitment to Southeast Asia.”

Matthias Becker, Member of the Executive Board for Sales and Marketing, Porsche AG

Partners on the same runway

“We celebrate the groundbreaking of the Porsche Experience Centre Singapore, which exemplifies our commitment under Tourism 2040 to develop distinctive, world-class attractions. The development of the PEC reflects STB and Porsche’s shared vision and our confidence that the attraction will enhance Singapore’s suite of lifestyle offerings, while injecting vibrancy into the Changi precinct.”

Jean Ng, Assistant Chief Executive, Experience Development Group, STB

The ceremony assembled government and corporate heavyweights like Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and Changi Airport Group (CAG) among them, showing that this is as much national destination-building as it is brand outpost.

The day also formalised the intent behind the smiles. Ahead of the groundbreaking, Porsche AG and Porsche Asia Pacific signed an MoU with Changi Airport Group, integrating the PEC into the broader Changi aviation and tourism precinct and exploring opportunities in innovative guest experiences and sustainable development.

“This new Porsche Experience Centre in Singapore will serve as a regional hub for brand immersion and elevated customer engagement. We aim to create guest experiences that are seamless, memorable, and uniquely Porsche.”

Hannes Ruoff, CEO, Porsche Asia Pacific

“The Porsche Experience Centre marks a significant milestone in our journey to redefine the aviation and tourism landscape at Changi, an exciting precinct where mobility meets imagination.”

Jayson Goh, Executive Vice President, Airport Management, CAG
