A 750-kilometre Audi A3 efficiency run, caffeine-deprived co-drivers, and a test to show that comfort doesn’t have to come at the cost of fuel economy. I’ve done the northbound road trip to Malaysia more times than I care to admit, sometimes for the scenery, sometimes for the satay, and almost always with the silent mission to “beat the GPS estimate”. But this particular trip was different. This Audi-led drive wasn’t about making ...

There are many ways to head up to Ipoh and back. You could fly. You could take a coach. Or, if you're like us, handed the keys to a brand-new Audi A5.

Deepal isn't a brand as well-known as other Chinese manufacturers, but the S07 shows it can make just as good of an impact. Before you even adjust your seatbelt or tap the brake pedal, the Deepal S07 greets you with a cheerful, “Hi!

And while the original Model Y may have conquered spreadsheets, it wasn’t exactly winning beauty pageants or refinement contests. Noisy, a bit ...

Technically, it’s a stretched-out CX-60, with the wheelbase extended by 250mm to make room for a third row of seats. But, Mazda’s ambitions for this car go beyond adding more bum space. Does it look the part? Oh, it certainly does. The CX-80 ...
