Revving things up this week with some big news: Proton's long-awaited first electric vehicle has been announced - tune in to find out what we can expect once it launches. In other local and regional news, Daniel gives the lowdown on the X70, Proton's next big thing, gets into the rumours we've been hearing about a new Citroën SUV that's poised to make waves in the Malaysian market, and speculates why we might not see Audi's impressive new debuts, the A6 and the S6, on our roads.

In part two, Ali, Richard, and Daniel unpack Toyota's ongoing safety scandal that has seen models of the Toyota Noah, Toyota Voxy, and Suzuki Landy being recalled and sales being halted in Japan. Malaysian drivers, this is an issue you don't want to ignore.

And finally, mud-plugging fans, boy, do we have the tank for you! Daniel gives us a look behind the wheel of the GWM Tank 300 4x4 doing exactly what it was designed to do - going crazy both off-road and in the city.
