Plowing Through Snow With The Haval H9

Plowing Through Snow With The Haval H9

The crew is back with the latest headlines in the automotive industry, from new launches such as the Honda Civic 2025 Facelift, the new Porsche Cayenne S E-Hybrid Coupe and Tesla's new Model Y. They also unpack the 911 Carrera S, which will be relaunched by Porsche - with all the information you should know!

Then Ali, Richard, and Daniel discuss the recent revelation of a syndicate in Malaysia selling "protection stickers" to heavy vehicle operators. Starting at RM1,000, these stickers allow lorry drivers to bypass fines and inspections which signals corrupt enforcement officers to let them pass without scrutiny. Tune in for some insights into the implications of this widespread corruption, and the urgent need for reform.

And here comes the highlight of the today's show: a review of the Haval H9 4x4 SUV! Daniel shares about his experience driving the spacious Haval H9 during strong winter conditions in Northern China, telling Richard, Ali -- and you about its new tech, along with his thoughts from his time behind the wheel.
