Richard, Ali, and Daniel get into some heavy hitters in local launches and regional headlines this week: Suzuki's exciting, new 5-door 4x4 version of the popular Jimny, the brand new price war-inducing Neta X EV out of Thailand, Kawasaki Motors venturing into hydrogen-powered motorbike engines in Japan and how long it'll be till we see them on our roads, Volvo sticking to producing plug-in hybrids and hybrid engines in a world moving into the EV game, and Indonesia's plan to roll out incentives for cars with hybrid engines.



Then, a look at Thailand's overstocked EV market. Daniel breaks down the domino effect of high incentives for EVs that first led to ICE factory closures and has now resulted in over 49,000 unsold EVs sitting idly in Thai dealerships. What does it mean for car buyers in Malaysia?



And of course, winding down with a used car review! The gang shows a little love for the much-forgotten 3rd-gen 2014 Nissan Sylphy. Find out why it's a secondhand car you need to check out for yourself!
