In this week's edition of Cruise Control, our trio discuss the latest in the local and global automotive industry. We begin with two local launches, welcoming the beautiful Audi RS5 Sportback to our shores together with the gigantic Ford Everest, a luxurious seven-seater entering the Malaysian market with high hopes. We also look ahead to Perodua's Ativa Hybrid, which we think will be a hit with Malaysians looking to adopt electric technology.

We round it off with Daniel's review of Audi's Q5 S-Line TFSI Quattro.
