Conceived as the ultimate expression of Lotus engineering, the Lotus Evija represents far more than an exercise in outright performance. It marks the culmination of more than 75 years of innovation, a journey that began with Colin Chapman's philosophy of "simplify, then add lightness" and has since evolved into one of the automotive industry's boldest interpretations of electrified performance. Singapore has been selected as one of the exclusive stops on the Evija's ...

Once upon a time, automotive partnerships largely revolved around sharing engines, platforms and technologies. One company would build the car, while another would simply place its badge on the bonnet. Today's automotive landscape is rather different. Success is increasingly determined not by what manufacturers can achieve individually, but by how effectively they collaborate. Engineering talent, research capabilities and technological expertise now flow freely across borders, allowing brands to move faster than ...

The Proton e.MAS 5 is billed as “Malaysia’s first affordable EV”, and despite its compact size, it packs quite a punch. An affordable national car does not need to produce supercar figures, arrive dripping in carbon fibre or promise technology borrowed from a spacecraft. To benefit a country, it simply needs to be attainable, useful and good enough to make everyday commuters sit up and pay attention. This is what the ...

There is something rather poetic about Proton finally building a plug-in hybrid, and the Proton e.MAS 7 PHEV is certainly ready to step up to the challenge. For decades, Proton has been synonymous with providing Malaysians with honest, accessible motoring. It has weathered changing consumer tastes, embraced partnerships with some of the industry's biggest names, and most recently, accelerated headlong into the electrified era. And it has done so rather quickly. Since ...

Since making its debut as Formula 1's first-ever night race in 2008, the Singapore Grand Prix has become as synonymous with world-class entertainment as it is with wheel-to-wheel racing beneath the lights of Marina Bay. There are faster Formula 1 circuits around the world. There are longer straights, more dramatic elevation changes and corners that have become part of motorsport folklore. But there is only one that transforms an entire city ...

The MG 4 returns with a completely revamped design inside and out, but does the now-renamed MG 4 Urban deliver the same joyful experience as the car it replaces? One of the most surprising cars that I’ve driven in recent years was the first-generation MG 4. It was a sharp-looking electric hatchback seemingly designed to function as a mundane everyday runabout, but it turned out to be one of the most ...

Singapore’s motoring future is changing, and for many drivers, the big question is no longer simply “petrol or electric?” It is now hybrid, plug-in hybrid, or fully electric? With Singapore moving towards cleaner-energy vehicles, drivers are being encouraged to think more carefully about what they drive next. From 2030, all new car registrations in Singapore will have to be cleaner-energy models, including electric, hybrid, and hydrogen fuel cell cars. That sounds straightforward enough, ...

School was back in session, although this particular classroom looked rather different from the ones I remembered. There were no desks, whiteboards or stern-looking teachers. Instead, there was a fleet of BMW iX3s waiting at Pathum Thani Speedway, just outside Bangkok, and a driving programme that involved a closed circuit, public roads and rather more horsepower than the average lesson plan. BMW called it the iX3 Masterclass, bringing together more than 60 ...
