Toll Hike Freeze

Richard Bradbury | Daniel Fernandez | Ariff Roose

29-Dec-18 12:00

Toll Hike Freeze

This week on Cruise Control, Ariff walks us through the toll hike freeze which was set to be implemented next year for Sabah and Sarawak, but has now shifted to be applied for the whole of Malaysia. Next, updates on the rise and fall of Nissan’s Carlos Ghosn and his ongoing charges against his understatement of income and misuse of company money. We round off the news by looking into BMW’s recent 3D printing of 1 million car parts. Lastly, Daniel reviews Mercedes-Benz' latest luxury S-class sedan, the return of the 560, with more power than last year whilst still performing like a sports car.
