Cruise Control is back this week with news from in and around the automotive industry, complete with a drive review of the world fastest SUV!

Our trio kick it off with Toyota's new people mover, the Japanese giants launched the Innova Zenix MPV to the market this week. Price jumps are to be expected on this new model, especially its flagship variant that comes with a hybrid powertrain. Also just landed in Malaysia is the latest BMW i7, with a price tag that just tips over the 1 million ringgit mark.

We also discuss security risks that come with electric chargers and look at ways to protect our EV from getting hacked. And the episode rounds off with Daniel's glowing review of the ultra luxurious performance SUV, the Aston Martin DBX 707.
