Max Fun in the Maxed Out Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain

Max Fun in the Maxed Out Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain

It's a two-man show tonight as Ali and Daniel take us through the biggest headlines in the auto world.

This week, Ali and Daniel first take a sporty hybrid Mercedes and a (very slightly) more powerful Volkswagen Golf out for a spin. And in industry news, tune in to find out more about the new Honda and Mitsubishi joint venture getting into the EV battery game, and how the local auto sector is performing this year.

Then, believe it or not, Daniel enlightens us on why we need more car approved permit (AP) kings in the country in light of MITI opening up opportunities for Bumiputera entrepreneurs to get involved in the automotive sector.

And finally, if you're thinking of picking up a pickup truck, Daniel gives us his review of the brand new Isuzu D-Max X-Terrain that has only gotten better with its 2024 facelift and definitely one for the urban cowboys out there.
