From Nissan bringing back the Teana in China and introducing the PHEV-powered N6, to BYD’s huge battery recall, we look at the latest moves and challenges shaping the global car scene. We also take a closer look at Toyota’s new Land Cruiser FJ 2026, a smaller 4×4 that keeps the Land Cruiser spirit alive, and dig into Porsche’s EV journey, including leadership changes aimed at speeding up their electric plans.

But the spotlight this week is on the Hyundai Staria, now locally assembled in Malaysia for the first time. We explore what this means for buyers — from its roomy, comfortable interior and advanced safety features to the launch perks like free servicing, rebates, lifestyle vouchers, and extended warranties. Local assembly not only makes the Staria more accessible but could give Hyundai an edge over its competitors. Tune in to see why this MPV is turning heads and what it could mean for the future of family cars.
