What are the features of these new releases, and how are their prices like? Then here comes more news - major car companies such as Chevron and Porsche AG have announced that there would be retrenchments. Join the crew as they discuss these news pieces in this episode.

On the other hand, Denza D9 is entering the MPV market - what does the car bring to the table, and what does this mean for its competitors? Is Denza's D9 about to shake up the MPV market? Ali, Richard and Daniel are here to find that out for you!

And this week’s car review will be on the Proton eMAS 7 PRIME. Launched just two months ago in Malaysia, it’s available in Prime and Premium variants. Tune in as the crew examines its features, pricing, and overall value proposition in the Malaysian automotive landscape.
