What Daniel Saw at KLIMS 2024 Part 2: And What He Didn't

What Daniel Saw at KLIMS 2024 Part 2: And What He Didn't

The biggest highlights from the 10th KL International Motoring Show 2024 (KLIMS 2024) keep on coming this week. Ali and Richard strap in as Daniel dives right into Malaysian market newcomer GWM and their 2025 lineup, which includes the Tank 400's bigger brother, the Tank 500, and the premium luxury WEY 80 MPV with a plug-in hybrid system that's set to take on Toyota's Alphard and Vellfire. Then, it's all about MG's Cyberster, an all-electric roadster that Daniel's already calling a "supercar" that's currently the most expensive car coming out of China, and what to expect with the Toyota Corolla Cross' shiny new 2025 facelift.

Then, from highlights to no-shows: Who wasn't at KLIMS 2024? With some of the biggest names in the auto biz and their latest models and concepts missing from the lineup, Daniel ruminates what went wrong with what was expected to be the biggest KLIMS yet.
