Lexus NX Debuts in Malaysia

Cruise Control returns this week with the usual banter between Daniel and Richard; this time joined by producer Ali Johan. The trio share their thoughts on the PDRM drones patrolling from the skies for traffic offenders before going through some mouth-watering new cars just launched. The all new Audi Q5 Sportback might be more pricey than its competitors but the luxe touches more than make up for it; also Porsche unveils its latest Heritage Design model - the 911 Sport Classic - we hear there are only 1250 units will be made globally, contact your local showroom to book yours! On the local front, the Proton Saga gets a 2022 facelift, and yes, a new price, but unfortunately without any major mechanical changes.

This week's discussion is centered around Elon Musk and Tesla; as Daniel shares his thoughts on the region's preparedness for EV manufacturing infrastructures and how Malaysia risks losing out to Indonesia and Singapore in pursuit of an electric future.

As usual, we end with a report on the new Lexus NX 350 F-Sport after a brief spin at the Sepang International Circuit last week.
