First up on Cruise Control, we go over the latest in automotive news - as Raya comes around the corner we go over fuel prices, speed limits as well as updates in traffic governance in Malaysia and the Takata airbag recalls. Daniel Fernandez interviews special guest Honda Malaysia’s Chief Operating Officer, Roslan Abdullah about the reception of hybrid cars in Malaysia. On that thought, on AT&T we discuss the distinction of plug-in hybrids from regular hybrid cars. Rich and Daniel review a little car that could.. no, not the Myvi, we review the 2018 Kia Picanto.
