In this week's edition of Cruise Control, it's numbers, numbers and numbers as we welcome Richard Bradbury back to the fold.

The trio start off with recent reports on half year earnings by Toyota and Perodua, before previewing what could be the next generation of Proton's X70, in the shape of the Geely Boyue L. We also look ahead to the launch of the all-new Toyota Vios, set to enter the local markets in the coming months.

Next, we discuss the recent announcement by the Transport Ministry on new licenses concerning e-hailing and delivery riders, weighing up the pros and cons of the proposed move. And finally, we get our hands on the latest iteration of the Nissan Serena S Hybrid as Daniel waxes lyrical on this unique family MPV.
