The new Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk8.5 might look like an incremental upgrade from its predecessor, the Mk8. But it turns out, the 0.5 difference is a big difference. After taking the car out for a spin, Daniel insists that people who are interested in the car should take it out for a test drive to truly understand the difference between the two.


In our discussion segment, we try to make sense of the recent rise in cases of cars catching fire across the city. What's triggering these incidents? Will the findings be made public to everyone?


In the news slot, we talk about the Mitsubishi XForce, the HEV edition of the Toyota Vellfire, the Toyota GR Corolla Auto, Chery's Prosperity Deal for the new year, as well as the all-new Peugeot 408.
