The Saga of the Saga

This week on Cruise Control, we put the new Subaru XV on the grill to see how it stands against its predecessors and competitors. But before we get to that, Rich and Ariff go over this week’s automotive headlines: Malaysia’s car prices see a massive drop just before SST is imposed, China reduces import taxes for foreign cars, a study’s findings of the average Malaysian car buyer’s habits and the release of the facelifted Volvo V40. Ross Hadi joins the boys of Cruise Control to reminisce the legacy of the classic Proton Saga on our feature story. On AT&T, Daniel Fernandez and Rich go over methods to stretch out the battery life of your hybrid car.
