MG Is Back, and It’s Lux

MG Is Back, and It’s Lux

In local headlines this week, before the dust can settle, tune in to find out how Chinese automakers Jaecoo and BYD are shaking up the market with the openings of their brand new showrooms. Then, to all double parkers out there (you know who you are), you've been warned: DBKL implemented new traffic compound rates from 1st July. In local launches, Citroën is back and throwing their hat into the local EV ring with a couple of exciting models. And globally, some sad news from Suzuki about the future of the ever-popular Swift and Jimny.

Then, we might not have seen the nail in the coffin just yet, but Ali and Daniel dive deep into the possibility of Korean carmakers getting edged out of the Malaysian market with the seemingly unstoppable force of the Chinese cars dominating the mainstream recently.

And, rounding up the show with a car review! With the return of great British automotive legend MG to Malaysian roads, Daniel shares his review of the MG4 Lux Extended Range - an electric hot hatch you definitely want to get behind the wheel of ASAP.
