On this week’s episode of Cruise Control, Rich and Ariff go over the headlines in automotive news: the status of the remaining vehicles of Volvo’s fleet refresh, whether autonomous cars are road ready, and Tesla’s financial crisis. Later, Daniel speaks his mind on nine bad motorcycling habits commonly seen in Malaysia he’d like commuters to change. AT&T goes over ways you could ease range anxiety when driving a plug-in hybrid vehicle. And finally, we get to the meat of the show - a review between two newly released SUVs, the Volvo XC60 and the new BMW X3.
