Zeekr 7X Performance Review

If you still think Chinese EVs are all flash and no finesse, the Zeekr 7X Performance will change your mind. So yes, we have indeed driven many EV SUVs. But the Zeekr 7X is refreshingly different. It looks futuristic, drives with intent and packs enough power to challenge some proper sports SUVs. Yet it retains the brand’s signature maturity and polish that set it apart from many of its rivals. Looks ...

smart #5 Pro 76 kWh Review

Most people who know the smart brand remember those tiny two-seater city cars that used to zip around European streets (we had a couple here, too). They were quirky, efficient and almost toy-like in size. Those cars defined smart for years. Today, the brand is in a very different chapter. Backed by Mercedes-Benz and Geely, smart has reinvented itself with a new purpose. The smart #5 sits right at the ...

BYD Seal 6 Review

The BYD Seal 6 is not trying to be the next big automotive flex, but rather to be a practical, functional option for sedan buyers. Once upon a time, the three-box saloon was the undisputed choice for family buyers. No nonsense, boot out the back, honest-to-goodness motoring. These days, of course, it’s all coupe-SUV-this and cross-something-that. But every now and then, a carmaker decides to swim against the current. That’s what BYD ...

Tesla Model 3 Long Range Review

My first experience with the Tesla brand dates back to 2010, when I was one of the few media representatives to drive the original Tesla Roadster, imported by a dealer in Singapore. Fast forward, and now I’m behind the wheel of the Tesla Model 3 Long Range, and I am genuinely impressed with how the brand has evolved. A Sedan That Drives Like Something More After a short experience with the Model ...

Mercedes-Benz G-Class G580 With EQ Tech Review

Hmmm, somehow this works. An electric G-Wagen that still manages to feel like a G is pretty darn impressive. The Mercedes-Benz G-Class was launched in 1979 as a military vehicle. What began as a rugged off-roader has evolved into a global symbol of luxury, power, and status. Today, it has taken its boldest step forward with the introduction of an electric version – the G580 with EQ Technology. It sounds like ...

Avatr 11 90 kWh Standard Range Review

Singapore has a new electric SUV on the block, and it’s impossible to ignore. The Avatr 11, pronounced "One One," is the result of a collaboration between Changan, CATL, and Huawei. Three big names, and they’ve clearly put a lot of thought into this one. I spent time with the Standard Range variant, and it immediately impressed, especially in terms of its appearance. With a 90kWh battery, rear-wheel drive, and WLTP ...
