Zeekr has unveiled the Zeekr 8X, a new flagship SUV positioned at the top of its performance-oriented lineup. Launched in Ningbo, China, the model expands the brand’s portfolio and sits alongside the larger Zeekr 9X as part of a dual-flagship strategy. The Zeekr 8X is built on the SEA-S architecture and uses the brand’s Super Electric Power (SEP) hybrid system. A key component is its 900V high-voltage system, paired with a high-performance all-wheel-drive ...

The name might not ring a bell immediately. That is because KGM is essentially the new face of SsangYong. So it's a rebrand? Yep, but also a reset. Honestly, it was needed (I'm sure you would agree). SsangYong always had a bit of a reputation. Tough, capable, but never quite polished. Yes, some might also say, 'fugly'. The Torres EVX, however, feels like a clear attempt to move past that. Cleaner design, ...

The Skoda Elroq is almost understated, and seemingly content to win you over the long way. Which, if you think about it, is very Skoda indeed. The Elroq sits neatly within Skoda’s growing electric line-up as the smaller sibling to the Skoda Enyaq, and if you’re familiar with that car, you’ll already have a good idea of what to expect. Skoda will tell you it’s an electric alternative to the Karoq, but ...

There was a time when MG meant something very specific. Lightweight roadsters, British charm, slightly rough around the edges, but full of character. Cars you drove for the feeling, not the numbers. Today, MG is a very different brand. It has grown up, moved on, and found itself in a space that is far more practical and, frankly, far more relevant to modern buyers. The MGS6 is a good example of that ...

The Leapmotor C10 is yet another Chinese electric SUV in the crowded Cat A segment, but it aims to differentiate itself with a touch of European-ness.

The one that quietly does everything right. Having spent years in advertising, I remember a line from a former creative director who once described the Volkswagen Golf as the Rolls-Royce of hatchbacks. It was clever because it captured something deeper than specs. It spoke about completeness. These days, “Rolls-Royce” gets thrown around quite freely. Footballers, watches, even kopi machines. It has become shorthand for something that does everything well, with a sense ...

The long wheelbase, six-seater version of Tesla’s Model Y SUV is in Singapore for a preview, before its expected launch in Q2. Tesla Singapore has brought in the Model Y L, a long wheelbase, six-seater version of its popular SUV, for a special preview, ahead of its expected local launch somewhere around the second quarter of 2026. The Model Y L features a stretched wheelbase that’s 150mm longer than the regular Model ...

It’s been more than five years since I first drove the Defender First Edition, and I remember coming away impressed by how successfully Land Rover had reimagined the iconic nameplate. The new Defender managed to keep its rugged DNA while becoming far more comfortable and usable as an everyday vehicle. Fast forward to today, and the Defender continues to evolve. One of the latest developments sees the Defender 110 (not to ...

We took the new DENZA B5 through an off-road course and a towering sand incline, showing off its off-road prowess. The DENZA B5 stood out immediately at the recent 2026 Singapore Motorshow, thanks to its towering height of over 1.9 metres. In a hall filled with sleek crossovers and low-slung EVs, the B5 looked less like a fashion accessory and more like something that could drive straight out of the convention ...

There is a reason you see quite a few Audi Q5 models (across the generations) on the road. For years, it has quietly been the brand’s global best-seller, the default answer for buyers who want something premium, modern and not from 'the other two brands'. But does the new model still deliver? In this day and age of 'bargain' SUVs from the east, it's getting harder to make a case ...

There is something quite charming about a brand that prioritises looks above everything. Cupra has always leaned into drama. Sharp surfacing, moody lighting, copper highlights everywhere. The Terramar continues that theatre, except now it wraps the attitude into something family-sized and daily usable. I spent my time with the 1.5 eTSI mild hybrid, which, on paper, may not scream headline numbers, but in real life, especially in a cramped city ...

The Sealion 7 has become a very common sight on our roads. I have seen it at events, sat in it during other drives, and heard plenty of opinions from owners and fellow journalists. What I had not done until this point was spend proper time behind the wheel of the Cat A version (shocking, I know). This one is the Dynamic, the entry point into the range. On paper, it ...

There was a time when choosing a MINI meant choosing small. Those days are well and truly over when the Countryman was introduced back in 2011. Yes, we were there. The all new MINI Countryman C is the largest MINI you can buy today and also its most accessible Countryman yet. Priced under the $250,000 mark (depending on COE and discounts), this is MINI’s entry level answer to a segment increasingly ...
