Keeping Cars Afloat During Floods

This week on Cruise Control, Ariff returns after last week’s absence, to go over the latest news from the automotive world. Proton announce a release date for the X70; Mazda responds to the surge in electric vehicles with a new combustion engine; while Volvo, Ford, and BMW, announce some much awaited new models. Daniel mulls over Amazon’s latest attempt at making cars smarter - the echo auto, and whether it’s worth investing in. The team then explores the scope of insurance companies in covering damages, as they review car insurance policies before wrapping up the episode.
